Anyone into R/C?

That's just because the revo is wider/funny looking

Nah it cost more money to do it with so much seriousness lol I just see this as a hobby

 

I'd race if I could afford it. Too many hobbies lol

Wow that's a freak accident
You really never know what can happen

 

Anybody flying rc planes? Used to fly gas planes about 15 years ago, and have been thinking about getting a little electric park flyer.

Recently, at the hobby store, saw they now have digital radios instead of the old school analog. Any opinions on this newer technology?

Looking at this little guy for a starter:

i would if i hard closer tracks to me.. closest one is about an hour or 2 away. i have a b4 and b44 just waiting for some indoor


along with an 18r if any places have indoor on road tracks.




edit: if anyone is interested in any, let me know. ill sell them pretty RTR w/ lipo or lipos.

 

Those little planes are pretty fun to fly. I have a the Park Zone T-28 ultra micro. It is pretty easy to fly and it's so light, that it doesn't get beat up to bad when you crash it. The only draw back to the ultra micro's is that they are effected by the wind more than larger planes.

Everything these days is digital, it's called bind and fly. You just bind the plane to the transmitter and you ready to go. You don't have to worry about someone else's transmitter messing with you plane.

 

i still have all my old cars from when i was a kid. rc10's and my kyosho optima min that spanked everybody !!!

 

Fun little plane, as stated above wind does and will kick it's ass!! If you've flown before you may want a little more, (I did become bored with it pretty quickly). Unless your very restricted on flying space?

 

So I'm planning on putting leds on my slash right now I'm counting 12 leds on the body front and rear and plan on having bumper and roof lights. How many leds may be too many lol opinions? And who has leds and there rc vehicle?

 

Rears are done, yellows look orange :/. 8 total, not sure how many or where I'll put them up front.
Opinions?

 

i like it
where did you wire them into for power?

 

It's run off the receiver
I just can't decide on the front atleast 4 leds but all white or yellow /orange and white?

Here's where I will put them, can't decide if to do a third?

 

is it a kit or did you get your own led's?

 

I just ordered leds and am making it all myself, gives me the option of doing whatever I want lol. I got plenty so I'll make a couple sets

 

Did a third, looks pretty good



You can see how it lights up behind also

 

That looks awesome!!!

 

Thanks I'll get night pics tonight, and start on the bumper lights

 

The leds work great and are kind of water resistant . It makes it driveable at night. It needs ground effect type lights so those are probably next, I think the holders do require a dab of glue to stay on (I had 2 out of the 14 pop out/kinda my fault made the holes a tad bit too big). Overall look great and light up very well, pics looked bad so no pics.

 

Think I am about to finally drop some coin on a SCX10....anyone know anyone selling one? I want the honcho
