Bummer to hear about my batteries, charger, transmitter, etc... but such is life.I appreciate all the advice so far and will look into these suggestions. It's a lot to learn after spending such a long time in the air world. A boat would be cool, but limited access to the water and I agree with the idea of being able to drop this thing down on the front lawn and getting to chase the kids around. I think I would enjoy dropping the boat on the driveway once and it would soon lose its flairThanks and keep the suggestions coming! How bout a sim for winter time?
