Got a T-maxx 3.3 and recently acquired a 1/16 e-revo vxl. I don't mess with them much but it is a fun hobby, seems every time i do get one out i end up buying a-arms and such because i suck at operating them

Two of my Tmaxx have been converted to electric. Easier for the boy to flip over and go instead of restarting the nitro. I have a traxxas dealer by my work and another close to home so I'm all traxxas.

I have a heli and a couple of quad copters. Have not broke a part in two years flying those. No plane yet.

Haven't ran an RC car or truck in years, but I do have an RC plane and a helicopter.
I like planes and helis my big plane I had was fun and had so much authority in the air. Wind gust while a low knife edge was no fight at all. Now I just have electric planes, 1 nitro hot rod and a nano cpx heli. I'd like to get the brushless conversion of the newer brush nano or t rex. Helis are a heli good time but go through lots of part when practice inverted flight. Planes are so much easier to 3d or sport

I fly helicopters. Here are the 2 that I have now, Synergy E5s and E7SE. Hope to get the new 766 but in the 800 config some time this year.

Those of you flying, did you register with the FAA? I haven't and am refusing for the time being.20150721_184256.jpg

Man now I need to flip a saw and get a plane.
Planes are fun. If ur looking to learn to fly youl enjoy it. Plus you won't go through parts like rc cars. That's why I got out of rc cars and went to planes. Hobbico next star electric is a great Lil plane looks good high wing trainer with lots of dihedral for more stability and flight stability recovery if you get in a bind
