Radio Control Vehicles?

[95BlackGA]

Anyone into R/C vehicles? I JUST decided to try out this as a hobby, and so far, all I have done is spend money. Haven't received anything yet, since it was ordered all online.

So far, I've bought 2 vehicles. A Losi Micro Crawler (1/24 Scale), and a Tamiya Stadium Blitzer (1/10 Scale)

I didn't really want to buy the Tamiya, but a friend said if I didn't like it he would pay what I paid for it.

I plan on doing a true scale build on the Losi, as I love the scale builds that I have seen. Not sure what I plan on doing with the stadium truck, if I even plan on keeping it.

I think it's a hobby that I could get into if I had the money for it

That's my problem, I spent $300 on a hobby I don't know if I'll enjoy...

I could never do that. I would tear up all the props and bodies...

300 is pretty good.

I would LOVE to get into scale R/C as much as some of those people have. Not necessarily the whole heavy machinery part, but doing anything to scale has always been one of my top interests.

I build my own little robots it's pretty easy and a lot cheaper.

I used to have a HPI Savage X 4.6 nitro truck. Cost me like £500 all together. It was fun, but i never got the engine running smooth, was always something wrong with it. In the end i sold it. I also used to fly my dads Trex 500 rc helicopter and his smaller electric helicopter, but he sold them too.

I quite like the look of those micro rc cars, and i'm about to get £105 from a refund for a crappy soundcard i got today, so i may pick one up.
