And again I will prolly miss this one...
Might be able to pay for gas, but I wont have 5$ left over LOL.. and I should spend the money on food ... oh well, I should make one more trip to give the stuff back I was barrowing from a few ppl.
If I do go friday, I might go early bring my plane, fly it at that park.. if there is an open enough area to launch it... would any one care to watch it? I kind of want to convert a few of you into buying one for air-racing, and dog fighting... Aircraft club/fields cost way to much to partake in... so rather start a foam wing club or something, at least there will be more areas to fly in than to race indoors...
Me flying my plane for those that care LOL... imaging these hitting each other mid air over and over... thats how combat is done, knock each other down.

$800 is kind of a lot for a chunk of flying foam.
But thats counting everything from battery packs, charger, transmitter, servos, recovering it 3 times, cuz the first 2 times were crap, an upgrade from S400 nimh to brushless lipo (best thing I ever did to it)... plus the kit cost etc...
Some of the planes out there are $5000+ for the plane alone, and they only crash once LOL. This one was originaly just a $50 kit... and I have plenty of crashes and hard landings on this same wing.

Ya that's true there's a guy in our club that has two giant scales and can't even fly
yet. LOL he gets mad every time I go and fly and show him up .He spent over
$10,000 last year or more and is still spending more and the fact is were afraid he's
going to kill some one with a plane going 100 mph or more and he can't fly it right .
Which is kinda scary .

I'll be there tommorow, I be there a little bit later (Maybe around 8 or 8:30pm.) I'm bringing Sonicfury possibly. It depends on when he gets home from college. I'm going to try to put in my orders before 2pm. (Hopefully I'll get up in time to do so.) Good luck tommorow everyone.

Well guys, it's FINALLY looking like I'll be able to make this one. Will and I will be heading down together. I'll bring along my F1 even though my driving skills aren't too great and tires are stock (slippery around turns). It'll still be fun just being around RC.
Mazda, are you talking about stock motors? I have a couple and you can have one if you want. Just let me know and I'll bring it along tomorrow.

Cool beans! Glad you can finally come! Yes, I am in dire need of a working stock motor if you can spare one. Nobody seems to have any in stock.
