I am with you on the planes Allen. I have been flying them since I was 13. I enjoy the big scale planes like that Pitt. but all I really fly now is 3D profiles. I used to have a couple 50cc 3D planes but never had time to make it to the field. So now I just whoop them out and fly the profiles at the house.



Ruger, Man can get a Lipo battery for that car and it will run for about 20 minutes and depends on what size and charger you get they will charge in about 45 minutes or less. That is what I use on my electric planes. I have about 3 batts for every setup and usually can fly solid with having 1 on charge will i am flying.

are 2 good sites for cheap lipo batts.

If you get a lipo you have to make sure to get a charger though because they have to be balanced when charged and those batts can get dangerous. I ran one through a prop one time and you would have thought it was a real plane crashing with the smoke and fire it made.

Ruger - Best place to get batteries is Hobby King, they are in Hong Kong, you can't beat their prices. When I was flying RC Heli's they were battery and this is where I ordered mine from.

One of the guys in our club flys the profiles.

I like getting them out and twist them around in the air.

I've had several savages and tmax gas trucks, they are very fast and much more durable than the rest, that being said the savage is better all around than the rest of the field!

Here is a pic of 2 of mojos. A guy in memphis designed them. They are tough as nails and hard to tear up.

I order some stuff from Hobby King. But get most of it from Value hobbies. they are in Illinois and have the almost the same pricing as HK. You should try the electric out Allen. I am very serously thinking of going all electric on 60 size and under.

Didnt know about Value Hobbies will have to keep them in mind.

I started back in planes with electric, went to glo now just about all gas.

Ruger - You will have fun with RC, where it is Cars, planes. It is a way to get away from everything else.
