Anyone into R/C?

Been flying for about 8 years. Great fun. 3D flight is the best!!

 

i have a few cars modded the hell out, ill post a few pics in a little, nice plane ^ my grandfather use to build the massive ones for people, but his arthritis is pretty bad now

 

I used to be into R/C sailplanes back in the early 80's. Been thinking I need to pick it back up, I've attached few photos of a model I built and flew in the nationals in Vincennes Indiana, not sure on the year.

 

testing and tuning my Slash today..

Where in the F did you get the LT kit for the front Mike??!?! What all did you have to upgrade/replace??

I finally replaced my slash mike jenkins edition body with a Desert Militia body since my old body was all beat up and I ended up cutting the fenders off. I took it to the skate park with my bro in laws slash as well and not even 5 mins..i broke the passenger rear upper shock mount. GARBAGE!! And my bro in law burnt his motor out. Here's mine.

 

thats what you get for buying traxxas,

buy associated next time ;p

 

The last RC car I owned......Thinking of getting one of those LT trucks just need to do some research first.

i bought the arms a couple years ago, but the company has since stopped making them... for the life of me, i can't remember the name of the company anymore...

the only things i had to replace were the steering links and camber links...

oh, and longer front shocks...

 

Hot Bodies Cyclone.

 

Heli's FTMFW!!






^^That is not me just for the record...Alan Szabo at maybe 19 years old

 

Ahhh! Well looks good man.

 

is anybody here in to Nitro r/c boating?

I've got a HPI Hellfire, a custom T-Maxx and a Traxxas Nitro Vee that i'm restoring

 

i have been wanting to get a boat, but brushless, not nitro...

 

Does anybody here race 1/8 nitro buggies? I really want to get this kit and build it up.

i've been looking at 1/5 scale 2 stroke r/c trucks like that short course looking HPI baja sc, damn though, 1500 bucks...
would probably be fun as hell to run it though haha

I sucked it up and bought one anyway LOL

heres a pic

 

1/8 scale buggies and truggies are bad ass! my friends use to have some and we would rip the hell out of them. i like buggies a lot more tho

 

after cleaning out my closet i found my old Associated T1, at least i think, its in that family of Associated trucks. This is very clean, full rpm everything anyone know how much its would be worth? only a 15 turn engine in it right now, but i think i might go brushless in it! but i need a body first haha

 

yea they are, hopefully i'll be able to go to my local track on Wednesday

i don't think i've posted this pic before, here is my HPI Hellfire

 

Looking into buying another Blitz or E-Firestorm soon.
