i hear ya Grizz,

you gotta sometimes evaluate your priorities between the "real world" and the "rc world"......

i was recently in the same boat as to whether to buy the rc8b or keep running the rc8 and also get a Nova Plus4 but when i stopped and thought about it i realised what i was running now was still just as competitive at my level!

and the 5 port keeps pace anyway.
