Matt, I find my petrol car really easy to control. I think it's because of its size and the weight.

It is super fast and it doesn't flip over as easy as a nitro car. My bro has the upgraded suspension and if you are too sharp on the controls it flips:P I have the stock ones and mine sticks to the floor like its got glue on its tires lol.

I want to get rid of the fg marder because it's too big for the house but then when I think of how fun it is in the field I feel like keeping it.

I want a 1/10 on road car because they are small, light, fast and they are like a mini version of a real car. I have an on road car but it's electric and I hate charging things (30 mins) and I want to see some smoke out of the exhaust. You also need to upgrade the ESC and the motor to get the car to go fast.

I will take a look at this car you mentioned.

Cheers, Jonny

Craig, what is that big green heli. Looks cool.

I was planning on storeing my heli's like that for when I get a trex 600. But for now my trex 500 fits on my shelf:P The skids just about fit on the shelf because they are wide. The trex 600 wouldn't fit so I would need a really wide shelf lol.

thats a Raptor 50. been slowly working on it and it's getting close to being able to fly. next to it is my tiny CP2.

yeah, to hang my helis i just used a wood dowel that i had lying around and spaced it away from the wall with some washers and anchored it with a few lag screws.

I have 1 TX for each of my rc stuff.

I got a huge nitro plane (Never flown by us, it's my broters) two helicopters, two off road buggies (One is my brothers) and an on road car.

Only recently did I get another spektrum tx for the belt cp so I have 2 models on the DX6I. And I used the stock esky TX for the nitro plane because the nitro plane TX is mode 1 and I hate mode one.

Anyway, I got at least 6 TX's lying round and they piss me off. They take up too much space. If I ever buy another rc aircraft it will be used with the DX6I. Shame 2.4 doesn't work too well with on land rc stuff.

Johnny, sektrum actually developed the first systems for RC car use :thumbup:
Look up the spektrum DX3R - awesome TX, and nice feel to it (my bro has one). That replaced the DX3 which was good but not as good, and before that the DX2, which we have 2 of brand new in the box if you were interested in a 2 channel steerwheel 2.4 system :)

I'm putting up my new Heli mount soon, will fit the trex 600, 450, 250 and Maybe a 700 on the end but not too sure.
Will post some pics when its up, but i might make some up to sell if people were interested. Takes up hardly any room at all.

Yeah, I thought they made them for rc cars but I didn't thnk they were very good (Signal wise) Maybe they are. I heard that 2.4 wasn't very good for on-land stuff.

Thanks for the offer but I don't like using a steer wheel. I just use a normal 2 channel control (throttle stick and left and right stick)
