Don't get me wrong... its amazing how the manufacturers are making quality planes for the prices they are offering them... but being that this hobby is an addiction... controlling said addiction is SOOO hard when there are so many choices!
I keep saying.. OK this is the last plane I need... I have enough... I'm good... I'm done for a while...
.

and then... I open the magazines, or see an ad here on the FG.. and BAM.. the sickness sets in...
it starts as a small dot in the back of the brain.. "nice plane, but I don't need it"...
then that dot grows into a spot..."Hmmm... thats a nice plane... I may get one someday"
Then the spot becomes a pretty big ball.. "Hmmm... that plane may need to be bought soon"
Then the Ball consumes the back half of the brain and " Ok.. I get paid Friday, this much pays the bills, and such and I'll have just enough extra "play cash" to get it." (Not thinking that the $99 plane will cost you $400 before your done"
The next thing I know I "come too" with the new kit in my hands covered in CA, with a bag of "accessories" to put in the little sucker... some how during my "black out" I have purchased the plane, a new motor, 4 servos, and anything else I needed to make it work...
MAN.... sometimes... I really think there needs to be a BETTY FORD program for RC.
