You guys have been listening to the almighty “P” too much., There is nothing wrong with your priorities. If RC planes and cars make you grin then go for it! As long as the bills are paid and no one is hungry than have at it. I’ve blown 30k in the last two years on this hobby and I’m having a ball. I've had the same wife for 28 years and she says as long as I'm keeping it for her eyes only it's OK.

I had a 98 Cobra HT, chrome yellow with a Vortech blower running 9 psi. The car made 520 hp at the rear wheels. I had 11k in the motor alone and several thousand in the suspension. What a great toy!!! I sold it after 2 years and have had 2 Expeditions since. I had to get a bigger vehicle to carry the planes as they got bigger. Right now I flying a 35% Carden Edge and I looking a several 40% planes. I’m leaning towards the 40% Carden 260 but looking hard at the Composite ARF 40% Extras. Here we go again.
