Saving up :p. Got my first system in November of last year after saving up for a couple of months. Damaged the Warrior 9918, sent it in for service. Got my second system in January or February (after I saved money from Christmas). Got my first Lipo (loose cells) in January, but I bargained the price down on that (because of the quantity of cells). Got 2nd Lipo pack in March, but I got about $50 off for several discounts. MGM Compro got damaged in ~March-April. Got the 9918 after about 4 months in April. Got some more loose Lipo cells in May (after birthday). Damaged Warrior 9918 in July. Went without RC for a month, when I sent my 9918 to Mike to see if he could repair it, and I borrowed a controller. Sent that controller back after a couple weeks, and have been without one for about 2 months. MGM isn't responding to my emails, and Mike is going to try fixing my 9918. I ordered some new batteries for $144 (Lithium Iron Phosphate), waiting for them in the mail. Will be buying a 3s 4200mah 15C Lipo pack soon for ~$95 shipped (these deals are great!). Ain't this stuff great? :rolleyes:
BTW, I did have a job over the summer, but I got about $45/week from that, and my mom made me put in half of my earnings. I also get $23 a week for chores + $5 lunch money.
That's how I do it.
