some cool trucks here!! I have been into R/C airplanes since 1984. Right now I am working on a 12' wingspan piper cub.. I have a 8' wingspan airplane too.. But flying on a lake with floats is the most fun.

Your the man! I spent about a month with my pops building one when I was about 18. Got the PC simulator and after I figured out I couldnt keep the planes in the air for more than 30 seconds without blowing them to bits I sold my plane without ever taking it off. Figured I could get my money back while it was still in one piece. With RC cars you can stop and think. With planes you better be in control at all times. Any pictures of your planes?

These things are way too much fun. I started out with a RC10-T3 as my first car. That is now all decked out. Im currently running a 7 turn motor in it and that thing hauls azz, but its still not fast enough.

I also have a T Maxx that started off as an orgional TRX .15 and now has an OS .18. I have broken sooooo many parts on that its not even funny. But that thing is damn fun jumping it 10-15ft in the air doing double backflips. My next idea is to jump my 35ft wide garage when i get it all put back together.
