Make that 69 here now....just sold the S-Maxx. In a day or so one of the Mugen Truggies will be gone too. I have it on ebay right now and the reserve has been met.

Not sure if you caught the original post I made but this is just the cars/trucks. I have 3500.00 in my FG MB alone and 2 revo's with around 1500+ in them. A few Mugens that all have over 1200 in them.....and a few mini's that come close too. I dont have any cheap servo's or radio gear period. I am not a easy person to sell junk to. If you figued in a few planes that are over 2000 and 30+ BL planes.....holy crap I have to stop thinking about this hobby in numbers that mean $$$$. It takes the fun out of it. Lets just say I spend too much and I am happy with that..

Here is what's on the bench right now. A few more hours to go. I plan to maiden it if possible on Saturday at our club fly in. It's my B-day present to self....hehe. I am putting a Saito 100GK Four Stroke in it. I broke the engine in today at the field on the break in bench. It ran flawlessly too. I am very excited to get this one up. It is the hangar 9 version.

Well when I was 12 I got a Balsa USA trainer 40 but after 2 years I wore it out and never had the funds to do anything with it so I got rid of it. It took over 15 years to finally get back into it again and I got a hobbyzone super cub....wait I got the firebird freedom and flew it once and gave it away due to it being junk....then went straight down and bought a cub.....it was on like Donkey Kong after that!

i like the shelf of shock and diff oil you got there, and the new in box RB engine sitting on the shelf looking neglected, seems like over a grand just in batteries and oils there, plus i'd be willing another grand in good tools, oh yeah i know exactly what i'm spending all my money on once i finish my apprenticeship, Mr. Mugen, you have inspired me.

Do you still have your 3 shelves of transmitters?



Or have you switched them all over to your Spektrum and Nomadio?

Vert- yes I do have a ton of stock radio's still. I give the dang things away when I find someone who needs one. Most of them do have spread spektrum radios now. I do have a few with FM still and they will stay that way. As I sell off a few cars/trucks I will upgrade the rest with their radio gear.

LB- I will get a family photo one day. I will have to empty the shop and fill the yard to do so.......no rain!
