Foofam77 Neutral Newbie February 8, 2009 Share February 8, 2009 anyone knows where i can buy kites for flying? not those kinda stunt kites, but more of those simple ones below $10. also, what abt remote -controlled aeroplanes/ helicopters? anyone into those games? feel like buying one that runs on battery (rather than the expensive types that run on petrol).. any recommendation too? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrianli Hypersonic February 9, 2009 Share February 9, 2009 I am into radio control helicopter + boat. Electric powered ones only. Electric can be expensive also. My most expensive electric heli so far cost me abt S$1.6K, lower end kind. My most expensive boat cost me abt S$3K. Electric powered may not be cheap too, how deep do you want to dive into the hobby??? Do check out www.daddyhobby.com for radio controlled stuff.

Twofouronenite 1st Gear February 9, 2009 Share February 9, 2009 (edited) I wanted to try the petrol powered rc car too (normal road track)...What are the running cost? Fuel price? spark plug need to buy? basic car price? How long can a rc car run until the next refill? Any idea? With RC controller and 2 channel/servo think ard 500. Glow plug not spark plug The fuel price depends on the nitro %, the higher the more it cost. Can't remember but arga it's about 50. About 10~20 minutes. U can alway mod but ur battery will run out b4 u fuel! Edited February 9, 2009 by Twofouronenite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they phased out a long time ago. I stopped playing planes and such many mons, started way back when they had Cox brand Cable controlled planes.One tin of glow fuel was so expensive then. My last project was a petrol driven F1 which was involved in a crash. No time to fix up, Only RC I have now is two Henglong Tanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
