I've played with r/c stuff since I was a kid...
Planes, copters, boats, trucks, cars, rock crawlers... I even light n drop fireworks from planes... Big ones.

I had controll line planes and free flight planes growing up. We did it old school, 1/16 balsa strips and tissue paper, rubber band powered. Bult a Taylor craft, Monocoupe, and a Howard DGA all before I was 10. Had a SIG ROG free flight that used 12 ft of rubber band, wound it up with a handrill. Graduated to silkspan, bigger pices of balse and airplane dope and nitro motors later on. I have an unassembled Sig kit Cessna 150 in my closet thats older than I am. One of these days I'm going to put it together. Never got into the RC cars, trucks, or boats. Not because I didn't want to, just because playing with the full size thing was more fun and I was usual;ly out of money by the time I got down the hobby of the day list to thoses. The RC rack crawlers are a very big thing, enjoy http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/107-r...ntrolled-cars/
and yes, I just paid more for tires and rims(used) for my rock buggy than I'm asking for the Suburban

I just dug out my HPI RS4, 1/10th scale awd car,the other day. I haven't touched it since 04. I've been doing donuts in the house with it, forgot how much fun RC cars are. I also have a nitro T Max, but that's a little beat up and I think the engines seized. I have bigger toys to spend my money on now, so I think I'll let the truck sit.

Well that is where I was at the time. Not spending any money on big toys and going crazy sitting around the house. This was a needed departure from the norm. That is pretty cool. I didn't figure I was the only one..
Phat, your gonna put on 20 lbs wih that remote TV.

All we got is a wire coat hanger hanging out the back of ours so it just stays on the local weather.
