Solrix

I wanted to see who on this fourm was into RC vehicles. I personally have a brushless traxxes rustler (Its broken at the moment) 

A Team Associated 1/18 scale RC18B2

A Team Losi micro t

And a small helicopter i forgot the name of. 

Its been awhile since i have played with any of them but im planning on pulling them back out again and messing around with them.

So does anyone else have any R/C vehicles they would like to share?

Yeah, but it died a fiery death after a wall collision.

I have a pretty large plane that I flew with my son once and before I could take the controls from him it crashed into a school yard fence. I keep meaning to buy replacement parts for it but never do. I also am into launching rockets but haven't done that in awhile. As for rc cars, boats and helicopters well I have tried to fly cheap rc helicopters with no luck whatsoever and as for rc boats well we had a cheap one we used to go through the Great Lakes replica water display near our waterfront area in this town and also used it at a big man made pond near what used to be a rich person's subdivision but really haven't used rc boats too much. In regards to rc cars over my lifetime I have had maybe three with the last one being a present for my son's cat giving it something to chase around as people used it but it got damaged before the cat even got it for Christmas. I have yet to repair the plastic spoiler for it. I also have a very large RC monster truck and have used it on occasion but the frustrating thing is the battery doesn't last long. You are lucky to get 25 minutes of action out of this thing. It was bought at Toys R Us and is their brand for rc toys. I forget the name of it but it doesn't matter really. It just points to the fact that pretty much all of my rc toys have been cheap and of poor quality and while I wish I had better rc toys I can't afford them. I also really should never have gotten the rc plane as I didn't have a good place to fly it. It went way too fast to be flying it in a school yard or park especially since I was new to the hobby and needed to learn to fly this properly first. I have heard of rc clubs around here but the prices to fly things at their field is just too costly for me.

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

I have a Traxxas Revo 3.3 that I just blew the idler needle out of and a Traxxas Stampede 2wd with a castle creations sidewinder v2 5700kv motor. The stampede is in pieces because the motor breaks all plastic in the driveline. I am looking into a Losi XXX-SCT atm though.
