Gerritt Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 quite possibly the best Cola ever made I preferred the Pop Machine soda as a kid... buy the syrup (s) carbonate the water and mix... the possibilities were endless!!

Cast-Away Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I've had an RC heli for a year now. This one is really challenging and my first bird, so I still have allot to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discophish Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I recently bought myself a Dragonfly heli. Good thing I started with an electric bird, because if I had started off with a gas bird it would have been a costly crash . I wish my Jeep had remote control, it would be helpful when launching the boat on my own. I will start planning that concept. Should make me rich ... like Hasselhoff.

silveradosheriff Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Have a couple older RC 10s that the kids and I race around the ball diamond behind the house. These relics are incredibly durable and we have a blast with them! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cast-Away Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 2 tone, this bird is difficult to learn on as it is a stunt heli that can fly upside down. I read allot of RC boards first and most people were sorry that they bought a basic heli first because they mastered it so quickly that they got bored with it and moved up. It took me a month the learn to get if off the ground without crashing it. Read more here: RC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

largemouth Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 I was given a R-controlled "VAMP BAT" for Christmas and only had it airborne for about 7 minutes before a huge owl swooped down from nowhere grabbed it and flew away with my new toy in it's talons. I don't blame you if you don't believe me but its true and freaked me out totally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 (edited) Picked up a couple of those AirHog Heli's for my son this xmas, pretty cool. I keep it interesting by chasing the cats with them and landing them on my ceiling fan. But gonna pick this bad boy for my son, who is really getting into RC'n. Starting him off with a Traxxas Stampede (electric). Man, I can't believe how fast some of em go, 70+ mph, crazy. But heres a pic of the one we are gonna get: Edited December 28, 2007 by Hooked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Electric is definitely the way to go in my opinion... clean and easy, useable indoors and no tuning required... no performance difference interms of acrobatics or 3D flying in choppers when compared to nitro/gas units Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know my son mentioned that one before. BTW, where did you get yours? My son found some sites where I was gonna order them from, not many hobby shops, or none that I could find, around my neck of the woods surprisingly. Anyways, thanks for the heads up.

2 tone z71 Posted December 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 the trucks are both mid $350.00 range its the Batts and charger that adds up,get a good set of Batterys they last 15-20 min on a charge,The ONLY place I would buy from now is Ideal Hobby in Barrie ,ask for Gaven Or Andy ,Gaven is the owner and they ship Postal ,I use to deal with Hobby Hobby but there cust service sucks,you can go wrong with electric ,the Emaxx is 4wd takes 2 7.2 volt batts has 2 motors AWESOME machine,the Stampede 2wd takes 1 batt is brushless and set up with the expensive lipo batt and proper gearing will run 65 MPH,I had it out yesterday in the snow ice its very agile,the emaxx will go almost anywhere it will climb stairs in low gear,good luck and let me know what you end up getting,ill post some pics of the trucks in a few minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
