I too think Nostalgia and RES are fun. I personally don't get bothered by competing against those with more expensive planes. I like trying to beat a guy whose flying "the latest thing" with a cheap airplane built from a pile of sticks. But I don't know if the average newcomer feels the same. Given the current rules for RES and Nostalgia I would guess the more competetive-thinking persons will put lots of money into the ships they fly. That's totally encouraged by the current rules so maybe that's what the original intention was. That was my question. I just thought with Unlimited TD, 2 meter, HL, F3B, F3J, and Scale that there might be room for a class that actively discourages excessive $$ and saves a place for the simple and cheap stuff.
