PowderBlue Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 I tried helis but they are just to crazy for me. I've had a few slashes but I break em to much so I went back to Losi. They just stay together a little better for me. The slash handled great through! Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Do sailboats count? Ran into the local RC sailing club up in White Salmon and got some impromptu lessons. Had a blast and would consider taking that up if I had more time. Boats are surprisingly cheap... well at least compared to reef tanks!

NoDoze Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Yes! Over the years I've had 3 planes, 3 cars, 2 helis, and now only an indoor drone I chase the kids and cat with. When the kids get older I plan to get back into it, I've already notified the wifie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely cheaper than reef tanks but it can get crazy, my truggy is about a 1000 dollar setup. It can get carried away haha Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WingRider62 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I dont have this one anymore, but built it from scratch and was ridiculously fast. We still have a couple of stock brushless Stampedes just for bashing around. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
