Hey kid I know how you feel, the numbers are staggering in this fantastic giant scale hobby, so just keep it small and more affordable for a while. A small and light $400 plane can do everything a $4000 plane can do ! not to mention - if my wife knew how much my plane cost, I would be living out in the woods - with the Raccoons ----have fun !

Thanks for the support guys! Hopefully I'll someday have 2K......

Ah youth...

Never give up. One day you`ll fly it!

I have a life, friends, and a beautiful wife. There is nothing wrong with spending some down time pretending like I can actually play a guitar as good as some of the guitarists from my favorite bands. Maybe you need to not be so judgmental of others and let them live their own lives as they see fit and we'll allow you to do the same, tired old man.

Besides, virtual sex is no where's near as good as the real thing. Or so I hear.

Guitar hero.... I can't even start it. Everyone I know that has it is addicted.


virtual sex, I thought that was already out there........

I work at Subway and i can easily say that Jersey Mikes is better but Firehouse Subs is the best ever

Ya all need to get a real life, not a virtual one. I can see it now, virtual sex. You get to watch something else do it for you.....

it's a beautiful plane, but i agree with edge 540 up above. i'm going back to school so i am having to stick with my PA addiction, and keep flying lower priced electrics. not to mention it opens up more possibilities as far as places to take it out to fly. i can go up to the local schoolyard with it. and my wife won't be as quick to castrate me if something happens to it.

If you cant easily replace it, you shouldn't be flying it. I know thats not what you want to hear but thats the truth. In high school (I'm in college now) I flew an ultra stick 40 for two seasons in a row. You can have a LOT of fun with a whole lot less money than a big gasser will cost. I never worried about crashing. I re-built the thing several times and even if the plane was totalled I could easilly afford to replace it several times over. No stress, I flew in ANY wind, took it to friends farms to show them the hobby, used it as a camera platform, could fly it without spotters, didn't need a van or trailer etc etc.

hang in there kid, mowing grass is a great way to get money at your age. Just work hard at whatever you do and you will one day be flying an awesome machine

i can't seem to play anything except guitar hero.

Mario Galaxy! Great game.

it's going to be great. the last batman was the best one and this one has the potential to be even better.

yeah, she let me know. she's back now. the memory card in the camera is full, and luckily so are our bank accounts(well, not actually full, just not empty).

Yeah but just think what fun the wife will be having in Vegas.
