Hmmmmm, sounds like we need an official Pro Bro Penalty Box for heinous voilations of plain old good pro bro behaviour. Violations could include:
-Playing with RC cars whilst your 3D skilz 'go to seed'. (Serious offense)
-Letting the old 'I'm scared to crash' thing get into the way of flying harder
-Whining about anything at a Pro Bro
-Flying a 4-star anything in circles whilst your profiles gather dust.
-Getting thin-skinned about any jabs you take, hey it's just part of the Pro Bro thang
Perhaps violaters could be forced to come into chat and let Auger verbally abuse them while only answering 'Yes Sir, may I have another'. [X(] Wouldn't that be harsh!

I don't think so Billy, Wanna share? I would like to get motor specs etc so I can do a quick calc on the overall price of doing something like this please? Bat size? ESC size? Any funny extras?

Well since I'm busted I will post a pic of the offending vehicle. This was my first paint job. I am working on a Pro Bro themed body if that helps my case at all. She does 20 mph now with a Graupner 300 and should do 40 mph soon.
I realize this isn't profile related but it does 3D in a sense and I have been a sucker for fast trucks since I was a kid. I had the full scale version of this truck for many years (300 horspower 350 and flame throwers in the tailpipes). I feel the need.

Ok all you local N'ville area guys. While I have you all here I've got another question. What Local Hobby Shop do you guys use? I've only lived here about 7 months and just got back into the hobby about 2 months ago. Right now I'm going out to Danielle's. Any other good LHS's I should know about?
Thanks
Danny

Lol...Chris don't worry too much, it'll all be over soon. LOL
So funny enough, i'm hanging out at the LHS yesterday afternoon because I have to build the owner a shocky so i'm there to pick up all the groceries from him. And for some odd reason we end up checking out this new truck that came in just because it is so HUGE! Pretty kewl thing but strangely enough the owner comes up with this idea that we should build a off road track behind the clubhouse at the flying field and start racing? Mmmm....right on. What to do now? Do we join in the supposed to be 'fun' or stick to what we know works and steer clear? I think I might be getting a little truck soon. [:@]
Oh btw cool car Billy!

I like Danielle's but its a bit far for me from brentwood. theres a hobbytown in coolsprings thats pretty good for hardware but they dont hve a lot of planes and VERY few profiles. bobby, the maneger there is very helpful and a cool guy. ive been to the hobbytown in rivergate and they dont have much plane stuff. i also frequent the hobby lobby pretty often if only to say hi. I heard something about a new hobby shop opening soon at the corner of lebenon road and old hickory blvd.,where the old wallmart used to be if you remember that. this may be just an unsubstaniated rumor.
BTW where/when do you fly?

3little- Billy and I fly every Wed. morning at 8 am for a few hours. It is our Hobby Lobby fly day and we bring out new prototypes and other cool planes to check out. If your off you should come by. Tomarrow will be cool, I will have a Hellraiser, Chip Hyde's Raptor, and a couple of new prototypes. I'll maiden a new ~.25 size electric 3D profile as well.

Hey Chris,
Thanks for the info. I live about 3 miles from lebanon rd. and OHB. The new store there is a Hobby Lobby (The crafts store not the RC store) which sucks so I guess I'll keep driving the 17 miles out to Danielle's.
I fly out at Music City Aviators field at Peeler Park on Sunday afternoons and some weekday mornings except Fridays. I'm going back to college (online) after a 17 year layoff so I'm pretty lucky in that I can fly about 5 days a week if I can afford the fuel. If your ever there you'll know me as the guy who drives an old police car and has a 4 yr old as my main crew chief. I just started flying again after 13 years so all I have right now is my PT-60 trainer. I've got a .20 size Ugly Stik on the table right now that I'm building from the original Phil Kraft plans and I hope to order a Burrito soon. Unfortunately I'd already purchased these two planes before I found out about the whole profile thing.
Hey flyboone, what field will you be flying at tomorrow.
Hope to see you guys at the field sometime and I'll definately be there for the ProBro Fly-In
