5.0 out of 5 stars "Complete" Bookof Radio Control short on Information
I just received my copy of the recently published book and anticipated learning something about radio controlled models. What a disapointment! There is absolutely no advise of any value, except an admonishment to start with a manufacturers kit. The rest of the book is an advertisement and promotion of those kits. Very disapointing. Don't waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars A disappointing purchase
A comprehensive collection of color photographs of RC models, makes a lovely cofee table item - but the value stops at that. The text is filled with inaccuracies that render the book worthless as a guide to the hobby, so much that I wondered if the author had actual hands on experience with the subject matter.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for the avid hobbyist...., December 1, 2003
This review is from: Complete Book of Radio Controlled Models: How to Build and Operate Model Boats, Aircraft, Cars, and Trucks (Hardcover)
It was a great read & had some information that I hadn't known about, but as stated by the reviewer below me, it seemed as though the author never had experience in R/C for some of it, so some of the info is false. If you are getitng into RC this MAY BE a good book for you, but there are better out there.
