I like the idea of the site. The truth is that manufacturers and retailers could have easily setup a database like this, simply by giving customers a way to post their information on the database. But, the manufacturers are not interested in you knowing exactly which motor to use in that ARTR you bought. They want to keep you in the dark so you buy many different motors just to try them. And people in the rc community are more interested in socializing than building a useful database. There is a website called rcdocuments.com which has been fairly successful. But, I doubt that it makes any money. Why? Because people go there once, get their manual and don't come back. Compare that with a forum where people come back on a daily basis. You get more ad revenue. And the companies use forums to get consumers to market rc products to each other. If you already have an rc database, then people will come and use it. But it is unrealistic to expect people to come and build the database. Most people on the Internet want to take and not give. And then one day, some smart guy will come and steal your idea, your database, and create a site that's better than yours. And poof goes all your work promoting, adding the database info, managing, paying for hosting, etc.
