haha you're the opposite of me. i started with planes. i had a couple 25 trainers and man i sucked at flying. i had the O.S. FX25 engine and i used a Futuba Skysport 6 radio... and man i sucked... maybe i should start with park flyers. i seem to get more excitement out of a 1/10th scale R/C car screaming across the ground at 60mph, hehe

I think he meant non-rc model type. I tried them when I was young...never got into it. I think I was yearning for an RC plane...but the parents couldnt afford or probably trust a plane with me. So I got the model...
Same thing went for my 4wheeler. I saw this toy and was like damn....its a real 4wheeler...but small. Then my parents are like you want that....and im like oh shit....they didnt say no to a 4wheeler...life is good.
Then. It gets home and shit a plastic one...it was it...but when it was like in toys r us miles high it looked like real rubber tires and I thought it had a real gas motor.
LOL. Was maybe 6 years old....but man that was funny looking back. I really thought I was going to get a off-road 4wheeler that was fit just for a kid. I swear if I was the age Iam now. Just thinking about getting on a 4wheeler gets you pumped. Then think about the let down of having to return to gay plastic toy land.
Luckily a few year afterwards I was able to coax one of the stingy neighborhood kids into borrowing his go-kart for a quick run. Bastard acted like I would kill it and he acted like the thing was a pos. Well anyway. I got my fix!
