haha yeah that''''s exactly why he''''s doing it too. [:''''(] it''''s funny though, since i stopped buying games i''''ve been amazed at how fast the money adds up! even the $500 or so i''''ve put into RCs since November is a drop in the bucket compared to what i used to spend on games.
You need to pick your video game system carefully

I have a PSP and it plays PSP, PSX & NES games - I''m sure it is able to do more also but that is enough for me

Longhair, did you decide on a servo for your rc18? The bluebird digital 375 series (digital and metal geared) is a direct drop in, aevery other servo needs mods. I have this coming in this week along with my kit, so should build it over the weekend if I have time..

LOL... hey, I knew the radio can do it, I just said I haven''''''''t bother to figured it out.. I figured it out for 3PM because at the time I only had that radio..

Yes, it looks like someone is committed to 2.4GHz already.. I saw the 2.4GHz RX on your last order....
I wish I would have known about the short antenna on the 2.4GHz before I bought so many antenna tubes [:@]

[sm=idea.gif] maybe I will just use them for show
With my spektrum I dont even run a external antenna!

I actually learned alot from reading the TXT-1 thread.

It took a couple of days, but in the end it was worth it because I learned what NOT to do

no, nowhere to use it near me, if it was to be an off-roader, other than a buggy, it would be a XC
