Default Hobby Shops in Minneapolis

Hi,

I'll be visiting Minneapolis for a week come end August. Are there any hobby shops that are accessible from downtown Minneapolis using public transport as I'll not driving? I'm looking for HPI Blitz parts, as well as RC planes and helis.

I'm sorry if it's posted in the wrong forum. Thanks.

Default Hub Hobby Richfield

I would say Hub Hobby in Richfield would be your best bet.

hobby town in brooklyn park has bus service that goes by. r/c car kings in burnsville is about a mile and a half away from a large park and ride transit station.
metro transit's website has a cool to/from calculator that tells you what buses you would need to get on and, how far you will need to walk etc..

Hi,

Thanks for the info. I was in Minneapolis last week and managed to vist Hub Hobby and Hobbytown. I was able to get my parts from these 2 shops. Minneapolis is a nice place to stay, although the weather was a bit too cold for my likening near the end of the week. Thanks once again.
