I am horrible about picking up planes, I have two hidden at my work so my wife does not ask about them :) At least I don't buy new planes, I only buy cheap used planes that are projects. I think I have 17 or 18 planes, but only 6 or 7 are flyable.

And everytime, I spend 3x the amount of $ I did the previous time. I just jumped from a .40 size to a .60 size....and Just now to a 30% yak 50CC.

It'll never end.

Every time I say that, Minnflyer does a review on something that I just have to have. There's no end to it. It's an addiction. You might as well just go ahead and slit your wrist and get it over with, Bill.... [X(] :D Just kidding, of course... at least the second half of my comment.

I submitted a post on the new Hobbico FlyZone SkyFly Max EP and after his reply to me about it being under review by Geoff, and the positive comments he had about it, I decided that I gotta have one, even though I have absolutely no place to put the thing.. geech.. will this ever end? :D

How do you thing I feel? Every time I say, "Ok, my plate is full, so I can't take any more review products" they dangle another irresistible carrot in front of my nose.

THis is me too,,in fact my favorite engine is my OS .40LA and I missed it so much that I bought a tower trainer to put it in to float around with....now I cant get the thing to start!! Didnt get too much time to work on it, but its usually so bulletproof that I just didnt think there would be any trouble....air in the lines somewhere I think but it was too bright to even see,, maybe this evening I can try it again....Rog

If I ever won the lottery, Prolly I'd have to buy me a warehouse to keep my R/C and Music stuff in it or put stuff in storage:D It's never ending hobby, INFINITY.

Ha yeah had trouble falling asleep last night, thinking about flying the addiction. I think I finally did around midnight. Got up at 0400 for work, loading the Addiction in the car, and off to work, about a mile from work remembered that the batteries were still sitting on the work bench in the garage!! [:@] oh well, maybe this evening. Not sure what will be next. probably finish putting theh cub together.

The trick is to have so many planes that the wife cant tell a new one from a old one . my basement is full ,my walkin closets are full and i keep some in my van. My motto is to keep all my toys till 2 weeks before i die then sell them and go to a good strip club and spend it all. lol joe

Well fellas, I can relate. 20 some years ago I detassled corn all summer so I could buy a plane. But I didn't know anyone who flew, so I bought a "Hornet" car. But my interest in planes was not forgotten, just postponed until last year. I met my instructor, joined a club, and now am officially an RC addict. To boot, I got engaged and (yes I'm the luckiest guy in the world), my fiance has a heli addiction. So 1 year, 3 planes, 6 helis, 4 trucks, and 3 cars later...I can't wait for my next addition! Is it unusual to register for wedding gifts at hobby shops?
