BigSquid 4S LiPo Shootout

Not to my 2nd email I sent them after they responded on their website, though there is this:

I dont think they know the meaning of a hardcore test.

I also noticed they had 'news' of an amazing 150amp esc from Leopard thats totally new and original, if by that they ment 100% identical to the older hobbywing 150amp esc:

The more I read on that site ( havent looked at the forum, I cant imagine what horrors await in there... ), the more I cant help thinking its written by the same kind of 'tards that write RCCA- just utter nonsense and biased reviews. Lame.

All I can say is at least they are trying. Show me another website, or mag, that caters to bashers and general R/C news. And they are always on the lookout for new writers. Why not instead of "bashing" them, you volunteer to do some more 'hardcode' reporting/testing/writing for them.

I tried to correct them and inform them where they were going wrong with their testing, but they pretty much just brushed aside my concerns- I get the feeling they arent interested in carrying out 'serious' testing, they just like writing sensationalist articles and 'fluff' stories. Clearly they are a just some group of drivers who write a website, yet dont have much of a technical background to draw upon; anyone who thinks comparing dissimilar lipos in the same graph is a fair way to create an article is clearly not interested in honest facts and figures to help people make informed buying choices.

Take another look at all their articles- they even compare junky radios to top of the line radios with completely different features and specs, then draw the conclusion that the expensive radios are better; again, noobs leading noobs pretty much....
