I know its not new years, but hey this could be fun. List some rc related goals you would like to acheive in the next year.

Mine would be to get my E-Firestorm in racing shape, and get a 1/18 electric on roader that will KILL my stepbrothers nitro on roader[:@] (that or get an electric dragster)

my goal for the 2nd half of 2008 is to go to rc tracks more and spend more time working on my car. The only bad thing is our tracks are 45 minutes and 2 hours away. And of course the newer, better, indoor track that just opened is 2 hours away with my luck. [&o]

My goal for the rest of this year is to:

a) Get a job to fund future RCing
b) Purchase new engine/pipe/lots of spares for my Nitro 4 Tec
c) Lastly, hopefully purchase a Savage.

The_Collector

Downsize. Sell everything I'll never use or need.

calvino

um, maybe get a kit, defiantely try and get my 18T brushless (maybe), try and beat my friends revo with my ST-1, um, finish up and race friends on track[8D]

Mspeed

Have at least one brushless lipo truck that I enjoy and totally give up on nitro completely.

NjBasher

finish my race rustler
go to a track
have fun

rc rock

get something i can brag about at the local bashing spot

i wanted to race but then i visited the dentist[&o]

sheograth

Downsize my car/truck collection (will definitely keep some though) and get a 64" + gas boat

nitrosportsandrunner

i love my rsuty vxl on 3s lipo. but a racer it is not. at times its like im along for the ride...not in control. id like to have a 4wd racing chassis with a brushless system. not sure wether it will be a 4wd buggy, or a truggy. iv considered a revo conversion. i have lots of time to decide, as i have no cash right now for another rc.

also, i want to build a good BL powered air boat. for the winter, i may try a kids sled as a base. someone did one with a gas motor, said he got them upto 40mph! i have a pic on my desktop to go by.

and i have a cheapo 4wd truck, vxl motor and 4 paddle tires. i may attach 2 skiis off a cheap walmart snowmobile to the undersid of the truck. i just need to figure out how to keep snow off the esc and vxl motor.

supamagician

That airboat sounds sweet. Could you post up that pic?

nitrosportsandrunner

heres a vid of my 1st air boat attempt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLzYP6KqpoE it took 1 hour to build. it will be faster after my new props come. the one on it has very little pitch.

heres the pic i found of the sled design

R/C fan-addict

my goals for my R/C's:

-get my pajero painted up and add all the scale details (LED's, winch, roofrack, spare tire, the whole deal!)
-for today: get my CRT.5 running, I just got all the parts in for the electrical system. Just need to solder a few connectors to the sidewinder and the battery and then make a battery mount.
-get my TRF415 running, I built it all up last week, but I need some tires and a pinion for it, as well as the body needs to get painted and trimmed.

Further into the year:

-get my emaxx running again (I made a custom chassis for it, and took it mostly apart, it never did get reassembled...)
-finish my 1.9" scale crawler project (need to paint up my rubicon body and add all the scale accessories)


Hopefully as soon as I can:

-sell all my old radios (got a 3PM to use for all my cars)
-sell my extra ESC and charger

Additions to the R/C family:

-I've been really interested in helis, but that'll have to wait since I just dropped $500 on R/C's in the past month and a half! [X(]

carmadmatt

Get my Mugen Seiki Prime 12 up and running!!

Matt

Anomie

Make something run, or at least maybe operate the steering on the TA-02. Perhaps a radio would help, too.

Also, one possible goal would be to do anything RC-related.

dsales

get 10 nitro trucks by the end of the year, but doing that depends on me also becoming a millionaire by august which may be possible with my evil plan

thomas09

Hmmm I changed my plans.

Fix up 4Tec (parts arrived today so that will be done quickly) and to buy a 1/18th Electric truck for funz.

rc rock

i too have changed my goals.
for this year an electric rc airplane trainer. then i will add the wing flaps kit to it to be able to do some more complex aerobaticks and later a castle creations esc and a motor

s7jstep1

well, im basicly finished on my rustler for now besides a different bodt and a vxl system instead of the mm5700. i want to get an esc for my emaxx(mamba monster) fix a few little things on my t4 and race it, revo is basicly to the point where i want it, i just want to race it. i need to do a few small things to the wheely king crawler, i want to get my vintage rc10 working again, i want to fix(and actually use) my track, and i want to get the shenqi 1/5 scale gasoline hummer

My goal is to sell my jammin x1 for at least as much as I put into it (to pay off debt lol!).

My next goal is to figure out whats wrong with my savage and clean it up to make it look new and shiny, and then find a great place to bash. Right now I am very short on places to run my rc's so its starting to be an expensive hobby to not get any run time out of it.

The local track around here shut down and with gas prices I can't afford to drive all over the state just for a day at the track.

Maybe my last goal will be to organize a group in the Indy area who can meet somewhere, have some club races and good times on the weekends without having to drive out of state or 50 miles south to the other track.

calvino

ok, achieved one goal, got a nitro [8D]

Find an rc track within an hour or so, seeing as how my local track closed down.
