Cheers ! The runway was a cheat that I bought off a company called Coastal Kits. I bought the clear plastic tubes off eBay !

Wow, that's amazing Will. Another commission?

I have stopped driving the RC cars at my local club after a spat. I wasn't directly involved but I disagreed with the club organisers' stance against the complainants. So I decided to stop going there. I might go elsewhere. Or not! It was taking up too much of my Sunday anyway! :-) G

Thank you Happy Grrr 😊. This build is just for me, but I did secure a commission build off this one 😉.

Good to hear you made a stand. Lots of people round here use their cars on the skateparks at quiet periods or in the station car parks.

Well, I'm out! I've just sold out all my radio control car racing kit. Sad, but I didn't really want to go and do the whole day racing thing anymore. And there was the fall out thing, which I really didn't like. I like the social side, but not really the competitive stuff. And the banter was a bit too "ladsy" for me.

I've just found a radio-controlled flying club near me though. So on to the next chapter, perhaps! :-) G

That's sad, HappyG(rrr) but you managed to sell everything so it's not there reminding you and, as you say, you can convert the proceeds into flying kit now.

I have some old RC engines I might be willing to part with :-)

About This Thread

Maintained by HappyG(rrr)
I can't believe that we've got Crafts, Gardening, Computer Games, but not model cars, trains...!

Just don't call them toys!

My particular hobby was 1/10th scale radio controlled car racing. I'm now looking to get into radio controlled planes. We have some Airfix model builders in here and Lego builders too. Any type of model vehicles really! Planes, trains, automobiles... boats, helicopters, anything! Come join in! :-) G
