Me to
Friday morning, I took a look at the want adds in the local paper. Wow, there was a NIB .60 Motor for sale. I look a little farther down the list, and hey, what's this a RC plane for $60. It's 7am and it think it's to early to call, so exactly at 8:15, I'm on the horn. The line is busy. I should have called at 7:00. After about 30 minutes of re-dialing, I got through. Turns out I was the first call. The guy had a couple kits also, and some other stuff. 45 minutes later and $600 later, I cleaned him out. Best I can tell, I shouldn't have to make a trip to the hobby shop for at least a week or so. I've got more balsa than most hobby shops now, four ready, with just a bit of work, to flys, two powered and two sail planes. I think the count was 12 kits, 14 motors, 8 of which were NIB. Hardware, about three boxes full, including motor mounts fuel tanks, wheels, you name it, all new. Fuel, two cases of 15%. and a couple odd ones, all sealed. Flight line stuff, actaull everything you need. Oh yes six Futaba radios, 5 of them are PCM, Enough servos for most of the kits and and and.
Yesterday, I cashed in my birthday gift from the wife, a 30 minute glider ride. What a hoot. I loved it. Even got to move the stick. When I got back to the car, I told her I though I might take lessons. She informed me that I couldn't start another hobby untill I got rid of some of the current ones, there wasn't room for anything else. I pointed out to her though that it was hard to bring the glider home. Maybe if we got a larger lot
