LOL....only if it comes with 3 helpers right?

Does your wife help you pick out these pictures?

There's a jet in the picture? lol

You need a special licence to even buy r/c jet stuff. We were at the hobby shop one night watching one of those r/c planes crash videos and we were commenting on how sweet the jets were and one of the guys there has been into planes for 20 years told us how hard the f.a.a (i think) governs r/c jets...

My budget would govern a jet purchase. I understand those toys start around $15k and a spare engine will cost like $2k. And you know sooner or later that thing will assume the position shown in the picture, traveling at like 130mph. Can you say "dirt dart"?

I wish I could write stuff as funny as some of you guys. I laughed through this whole thread.

Those jets are sweet. So are the chics

I wonder where you would fly one of those, they must have some kind of onboard camera.

There is a model airfield on the west edge of St Charles that used to host an annual event called The Festival of the Giants. All of the planes that came were HUGE and they also had jets and helos. If you search around the Inet you might find if they still put it on. I know last year they cancelled because the field was being rebuilt. They are having a weekend event there on June 11 to "grand open" the new strip. Don't know much more about it, but I'm sure the StChas Hobbytown knows it all.

A guy named Mike at the r/c counter is part of that club i bet he could fill you in

that is sweet i wish i could buy that only if i was a trillionaire lol that would be freakin awsome. I think i went to one of those airshows and i saw some jets but the thing that i remember the most there was a flying lawn mower the thing was awsome. it wasnt an actual lawn mower. it was shaped to look like a lawnmower and the wing was part that covers the spining blade and i think it had the elevators on the handle bars. it was doing backflips and stuff it was cool ok im done now lol

That flying lawnmower, is from HERE. They also have a Witch, a Tank, a Flag flown by Uncle Sam (Just in time for the 4th) and a Race car.
