Man I type way to much in my posts! I've deleted a ton of BS out of it and it still toooo looooong. I'll try to keep the lengthy post to a minimum. It's probably already at the point you just skip mine.
Okay one liners and no over explaining what I am saying.
I can relate to almost every one of these post and reason.
Every rc fully setup or RTR is mine. RC just isn't complete otherwise.
I do have more then one of the same rc. One has the nitro engine on it the other has a brushless. Also other rcs, not the same one, but same type like two truggies. Swapping brushless setup can be a pain but converting and unconvert, the converting agiain, then.... enough said.
It used to be said the brushless was the more expensive way to go. Not fropm what I've expereiced the last two years runnng both. Nitro for me has been. H City lipos - Nitro $40 a gallon and it might last two weeks - Glow P 6 -8 each. Seems something always is breaking with when running the noise makers.
Bondonutz - no bar anymore. Me to for my daughters, the hobby help fill my time. Oh, well the tavern and lounge I stopped at daily, both closed down at the same time too. It was a sign.
I wanted to try both the futaba 4pk and Spektrum to decide which to go. I'm stuck in the middle now. I am changing my thinking of one RX per rc - same reason as Sullie
I can picture BrianG wires are cut to the exact length for effeciency on his rcs. He just hasn't added that feature to the his web page for us yet. I know my wires are too long, anytime you wrap then around the body post to keep them from draggin. You wires are too long.
Great hobby, as expensive as you want to make it. I just wish there was something we could do about the resale value of rc itself. The only thing that comes to mind right now that might be an investment would be finding that G3R shelf queen at an estate sale.
I think something would be lost if I summarized this part:
I appreciate everyone's responses so far. They have all helped me put in perspective what a nut Bondonutz really is. :) I am almost as bad withh rc like you are, but the lipos? JK We are all pretty far behind a certain pimp we all know. No cathching up with that mans resume of cars, motors, midgets, etc. has on it. I saw a resume some where that had a list of rc on it and hell it was long and that was two years ago.
