Default Who's into RC gear? Post up your toys.

I have an Associated B4 team buggy, with Mamba Max, Lipo, and Hitec radio gear.

I also have a few planes too, I first started with a Super Cub fun plane got good at it so I thought I could do the Parkzone Spitfire that lasted about 10 seconds. Then I got a Cesna 182 that lasted about 60 seconds, now I am still waiting for parts to repair them.

RC is fun but gets expensive quick when your learning, I should have gone to an airfield and learned properly but hey I never do anything the easy way.

I use to be sponsored by Tamiya back in 1988... and raced heavily in off road.

I also collected vintage tamiya. You can see all my cars here:

Wow that is an awesome collection, I wish had all those.

I used to drool over the Avante when it fist came out, I was going to by one of the new ones. I also have an old Tamiya MadBull in a box somewhere.

The Blackfoot was an awesome truck, my buddy had one of those, other buddy had the pumpkin and I had a clodbuster. Fun stuff when your twelve, I recently bought a new super clodbuster just like I remember it when I was a kid.

Too bad I loved that car, is the new one anygood? I want a B44 with a top end brushless/lipo setup.

But then I bought a Z and the RC has not been touched since.
