I read a thread like this over on the tank section of this site and thought the replies were really interesting. Sometimes it's nice to know what makes others interested in rc as 99% of the time the threads are technically related. My first toy that moved on it's own was a clockwork tank ( i was 6 and santa was skint), then onto battery cars. I always loved anything with an engine. Now I have time and the wherewithall I'll get what I can cope with. Started with nitro last year....steep learning curve....wow...37 years old.
