    OK
    Seeing as the name Flunked put up.
    How about this to kick off the conversation:

    and this:

    These are pictures taken from this website:
    http://www.ausbg.org/index.html

    Where they make model ships WITH REAL GUNS INSIDE.
    Then they take them to the lake and shoot the hell out of each other !

    I think it's incredibly cool.

    there used to be an American Club called Midwest Naval Combat of something similar.
    There were videos of their Naval battles - but I can't locate it.

    The idea was a beginner could only make freighters !
    You had to be in the club for a period or get sunk a number of times before you were allowed to make a first gunboat and "send it back".

    OK i took out all the elctronics on the my buggy, cleaned everything i could find and am charging the bats and putting back to gether.
    Ok so i havnt worked up the courage to take out the engine and everything else that moves at high speeds XD it is cleaner.
    I streghtned up the new tank i got with some "plastic cement" and am filing it down to fit just right.
    Then when everthing is chagred and put togeghter i will be bringing it to green hobby to get a new servo i think
    and...
    see if i can get it tuned with me there so i know what is happening :) then when for the first time since january she is running perfect i can make some aluminum parts and go bashing with it :)
    now who likes my story? (which is true)

    PS: Coolwings, is there any time on a saturday that is more quite in green hobby?

    Long, low jumps are just as good.
    When it's really whipping through the grass those flat jumps look incredibly fast.

    OMG
    With 4 diffferent cam angles, it needs (at least) to jump through a fire ring !

    Ooops - I let out a future plan ...:p
