          Excuse me for dropping in late, this site has absolutely no connection with Wings900-DAC?

            The only connection to w900/dac is that Waffle owns this site, and he was a former owner of W900/DAC. Since the split he has had no interaction with those sites, which for the most part are crumbling and a shadow of their former selves.

              Awesome work!! I was on W900 for 14 years and I can attest how much it went down hill. The final straw was when I got locked out of my account and no response from the site admin to reset.

              A big round of applause is on order, no doubt. Thanks very much to everyone involved - keep up the great work.

              While most new releases are added regularly by waffle, It would be fantastic if user-submitted models and corrections were considered more quickly. I've volunteered for the task numerous times; the offer is still valid.

                Unfortunately I have noticed that, there is much less lively discussion there and real mfg input. Which is why I am here.

                  DiMA's database is 10X better than DA.C's. They still have models from years ago that still haven't been added. It's frustrating when you are trying to keep a collection database and 1/4 of then aren't even in the database. I moved all my stuff over to DiMA and nothing is now missing. Very Happy!

                      i truly love DIMA since i first knew about it back in 2013-2014. what i like a lot is building my database of models. sure i used to do it on Wings900 then i created my own excel sheets incase i couldnot access the website..it took a loooooot of my time to add models, logos, info..etc
                      with DIMA i can just download a PDF of my database and save it on my desktop. i wish DIMA was before i did all that work

                      so i hope you keep up the good work

                            I imagine Dima has grown some more since this thread was started.
                            I use it weekly to check for new models and it has worked for me as a reminder of models I can get on e-bay and from the retailers which has an API into this website database.
                            Awesome :-)
