After all, I have a remote control TV too, so while we're at it, why not discuss televisions and every other appliance with a remote control?

Diversity can either kill you (run too many classes and you know what I am talking about) or can bring new life to something old...
Has anybody used that new Spektrum DX-7 radio? I have, it rocks. Rock stable connection, zero gliching problems (can be very very very bad with airplanes and helicoptors ) looking for the smaller 6100 receiver, the 7000 is a little bit tight to squeeze into my Stryker-F27C brushless PLANE.
Any body know any local hobbyshops with losi 40wt shock oil in stock?
(how you gonna classify this post ? )

Dont understand why the moderators have not moved the heli and plane threads to their own forum.
And this goes for any other non related RC car racing thread.
Now watch the ones corrupting the forum bitch.

Try TRCR for the shock oil. I know that SIR only has the AE brand.

If i'm going to Home depot and pass by lowes, I might pull into lowes because both stores offer what im looking for, understand that one stien.
I make great burgers and when I envite company for burgers they get burgers not hot dogs.
So if you don't like something it should be deteted?
Quite contraire, where exactly does it say on this forum only threads that promote RC as a whole can be posted friend? Get your head out.
I was trying to protect the interest of the RC Racers forum jimmy, The question is, what do aircraft threads have to do with racing under the NW racers forum Stien?

With only two, how hard could it be? I got about 6 second of flight before I could not handle the left is right, right is left problem I created!
Very funny, glad I didn't spend a ton of time building it. After all the repairs, I was in about $35 in parts/materials to get back in the air. The beauty of the Stryker finally paid off!

I guess it pays off checking that you've got the right model on the screen of your remote. He's probably out atleast $800 in repairs. Ripped both wings to shred and destroyed his 7 cylinder rotary 4 stroke engine.

I love the response this guy got from this thread. But seriously you guys, helicopters are stupid and everyone thats not a moron knows that . So please anyone that flies helicopters please move all your dumb conversations to somewhere that I dont have to see one thread about them.
Who wants to go start a heli thread in the On-road racers forum ?
