When you use your Jet Cat Turbine to light the grill LOL
We actually used glow fuel to light a grill. It was only a cap-full, but still...that was at the first club meeting ever in El Salvador. We flipped the food with pliers and cut the steaks with exacto knives and swiss-army knives. Someone had even crashed their plane that day (total loss) so we used some balsa in the charcoal (not much...but still). Is that not ridiculous?

Lexan scissors? Pffft! Dremel w/ sanding wheel or cutoff wheel works best, hands down!
When you use a Dremel's sanding wheel to clip your finger nails (guilty).

When you keep canned goods in cardboard boxes and airplanes in the pantry.

When you wake from a deep sleep to go and draw a set of plans for a pod and boom park flyer you were just dreaming of.
When you stop by a construction site for scrap pieces of foam.
When you ask the boss for the afternoon off becouse the weather is just perfect.
When you tell the kids to clean their room but your work shop is a mess and you know where everything is.

When you buy a riding lawn mower to cut the R/C field, but live in an apartment complex and have no yard of your own.


(raises hand) Guilty!

You're addicted to R/C when...

Your 11 years old, the nearest hobby shop is 16 miles away, yet you know all the information of the hobby shop by heart, and the owner knows all your information. Guilty

You've visited 5 hobby shops in on day and bought something from each of them. Guilty

while your the only one home, you go on the forums and watch R/C videos for 5 hours. Like I'm doing now.

while your the only one home, you go on the forums and watch R/C videos for 5 hours. Like I'm doing now.
been there, except its at school in auto: supension and steering, because all i have at home is dial up and the school has high speed my teacher gets annoyed I usaually have to windows on the computer, one is either rcu or some other rc site and the other is what we are suppose to be doing
and you are addicted to R/C when you are selling 20oz of fuel in a mellow yellow bottle for $15, that was in my auto:suspension and steering class, he doesnt know that he can get the same fuel for maybe 1 or 2 dollars more for a gallon, and he was the one who came up with the $15 idea, not me

you walk into your bedroom..the first thing you smell is nitro fuel...you then trip over your collection of cars boats and airplanes and spair parts...and to your amazment you land on a bed...this is amazing because you haven't seen the bed in months...

your rugs are stained purple from nitro fuel...

you have enough power from battereies and nitro fuel combined to power nyc for a month

your teacher asks for your hw in school and your excuse is the nitro fuel burned through my hw...

you can barely get out of bed in the morning for school...but you get up smiling at 6 in the morning to go run your rc's

you signed a petition banning curb's and light poles..because they destroyed a few RC's

you write your name on a paper in school...signed t maxx.....

u have enough brushless motors to propel a cruise ship...

When you run into a fence and wreck your car on the way home from the hobby shop because you were paying too much attention to removing the price tags from your purchases so your wife would not see them.

When you buy a plane you want but not really need right now because you are afraid you might not have the cash to buy it if it gets discontinued one day ...
