armchair rc'ing!

Want to talk about micro boats or micro planes? How about trains, slot cars or submarines? Well you can do it all right here. If it's another hobby and it doesn't fit in one of our other forums, then it goes here.

just got me the coolest tank accesory yet..... the wireless cam mod! :smile:

the range on the cam and tank are good enough for me to drive out the back door and do laps of the house, from the comfort of my lounge room! and the slower speed of the tank makes it easy to drive by screen, just like a reality video game! of course i'm planning on a remotely controlled tilt feature so's i can park this baby under a chick and peek where the sun don't shine!! :cool:

Those are really cool, I want one, but I can't have one, 'cause if I had one, I'd have to get another to do battle with. The problem with that, is it would be a stretch of the budget just to get one, then when I get 2 I'd wonder if my friends are imaginary, 'cause they never come over to play with me. :lol:

been having a ball with this little baby! a friend lent me his old nikko buggy (about 15 years old!!) which i've been bashing around the yard. rollovers look cool on screen and getting air off jumps and bumps is pretty funny! on a side note, this electric buggy is bullet proof! never been serviced in it's life and probably sitting in a shed for the last few years, charged the batt and bang! kicked over first time! lotsa fun, i hope to get some footage digified so's we can put it up for all to enjoy!

Anybody got parts for one of these?
I need that white plastic high-low switch on the differential. my son lost his -- fell out and we looked all over for it. but nothing.
People are like slinkies..... they are the most fun when you push them down stairs.
