Putting RC on hold for a more "rewarding" project

[Snipin_Willy]

I've decided to put my RC dreams and wants on a hold for a more rewarding project. I finally have the time a money to put into something to define myself and to set myself apart from the crowd. I've seen my college friends drop enormous amount of money on things from dedicated wake boarding boats to sports sedans such as the most recent Lancer EVO. But how many actually get that 3rd degree of freedom?

I'm starting my Zodiac 601XL, Starting kit minus motor: ~$24,000.
