First All-RC Issue

Devoting itself to the continuing development of radiocontrol modeling, the September 1984 issue of Model Airplane News sports a subtle but significant change on its cover. The famous Model Airplane News subtitle, “The World’s Premier Model Magazine,” becomes—for the first time—“The World’s Premier R/C Modeling Magazine.” Although the last freeflight VTO column by Dave Linstrum is featured in the issue, the die was cast, and all future issues were dedicated exclusively to RC modeling.
