It would be interesting to see if Tower's profits have gone up or down over the past 15 years. Considering that they have gone along with AMA in defining the hobby as solely "flying" and eliminating "building" have they, like AMA, painted themselves into a corner? Considering that the hobby shops have gone out of business, maybe their market has increased due to less competition. On the other hand, with these products (quadcopters, mini-arfs, and FPV) they may have put themselves into direct competition with Amazon. Oh-oh!
I notice that their catalog is a bit thinner and with less variety. But that should not come as any surprise. In the commercial, consumer marketplace (for instance, your local strip mall) notice how, as the local mom and pop's are driven out by the chain stores, that variety has plummeted?
