Yes, my wife is going to get me an WildHare Edge.
It is on order and should be in before Christmas!
Now I need to find someone to assemble it!

I want more flight packs, a tach, a new charger, a couple new planes... well you get the idea. I would settle for some good weather though so I could fly all winter

DP Ultimate 40 with a nice, powerful 4-stroke plus new Tx with all the bells and whistles. Hope I can get the DP in time. Of course, almost everyday day is christmas time with this hobby.

Thats why all good hobby shops should have a Christmas registry for you to sign up with. That way when the wife walks in, all the shop has to do is look up your name and hand her what you want. I think I have my LHS talked into this idea for the upcoming holiday!

My wife said to get rid of most of my stuff or she was throwing it on the christmas fire [8D]

I told her if my planes go - her cats go too [>:]

I'd like a 9c to throw on the pile, but I know I won't get it.

Definately getting a 9C. I had to order it myself. Would love a SI Models 43% weeks solution. I am not counting on it as I cannot seem to get in touch with them.

A Four Star 60 ARF, Yellow, would be great. I have a NIB OS91 Surpass II waiting for a home.

Fortunately(?) I'm single so it is a possibility that I'll give it to myself.

I would like anything for my next 2.3M Extra project. A reciever, maybe like 2 servos or anything to get me started for the saving.

Default RE: do you have your christmas gift picked out

Well lets see.........

I already bought myself a 9C. I suppose I could hope for the Hangar 9 Sukhoi. I don't know anyone in their right mind that would buy me that for Christmas so I may have to do it myself The downside is I don't know how my roomate will react to such a large plane in the living room. I may have to get rid of or relocate my 3 planes that are presently there!

We shall see..........

P.S- I would just be buying the plane to finish at a later (way later) date. I would have to save up for the engine, and all those digital servos. It will take me almost two years in my best estimate
