im bored as hell figured id see if any one ran rc's. i got a tmaxx 3.3 that i messed up and a cheap ass japanese knock off of a truggy like degree for christmas. i kept gettin traction roll on the tmaxx before i broke the lower a arm any tips?

I got a Baja SS.. FG truck...couple other 1/5 vehicles check out this website RC Cars, Buggies, Trucks, Tanks and more

I have a Hobby Zone Mini Mauler which is a lot of fun to drive around my backyard. Truck go fast! I also have a hobby zone firebird which I could never fly properly due to always having high winds where I live. I could get it about 60 feet up, do a circle or two and then a gust would smash it to the earth and break the tailfeathers.

I have an Air Hogs dragonfly helicopter which is great fun in the house, it flies very stable when you have the trim adjusted properly, I was quite surprised with a price tag of only $29.99 but it's so small the battery only keeps it flying for about two minutes per charge. It's well made though, I've crashed it a million times and it still flies like brand new. I like hovering it in front of my cat, it drives him nuts when I lower it towards him and then take it back up before he decides whether or not to catch it. The trim gets reset every time you turn off the tx though. And it takes about 40 seconds of flying time to get it trimmed again, which doesn't leave much time for flying.

I built a balsa and tissue airplane with a rubber band motor. It flew beautifully but I only flew it once because I don't want to break it and once I paint it, it will probably be too heavy, at least that's what the plans say. Maybe if I paint it, but then add a small electric motor I could have a plane that would fly a few miles and I would never recover it. Or I could add some servos and control surfaces, an rx, a tx, and whoopsadaisy, I would have a tiny balsa plane that's nearly as expensive as a cheap park flier but I would need zero wind and if I have a rough landing it will be smashed to smithereens.

I want to get into gas models, but unfortunately they are priced out of my budget. I'm just a poor boy and even poorer now that I lost my main job. I should go to the RC airfield when the club meets and try to beg someone's old trainer that they were gonna e-bay. Those old rich guys wouldn't miss the $75 or whatever that they would get from it.

Kites are a favorite of mine, they aren't too expensive, they're nearly impossible to break, and they have zero operating costs. Not on topic though, hehe.

Oh, but all of the above must not be true because everyone knows smoking pot makes you sit on a couch whenever you're not running over pedestrians and watching your siblings drown.
