| Its time. I think?
2 years since I signed up here. 10 years (feels like 100) since my last serious rc. Not sure why I haven't plunged in yet. I've been watching from a dark corner with a jealous grin! You guys have some nice rigs! Married with 2 kids. So I guess $$ has kept it at the waist side. I have been saving some change(whatever doesn't go to the 1:1cj7) for a cc-01 kit. Can't wait to share the build and get into scale crawling. Look forward to the next 2 years! |

welcome then.. well some (or most) of us are married, with kid(s) also.. I fell ya man wanting an awesome hobby, but with a limited amount to spend around.. priority for providing the family then it made it worth the while, building the rig slowly |

Married here also, one kid. Use to have two but sold the one off, so I can fund my wroncho project. J/k of course. Welcome and looking forward to seeing the build. Cheers, Wade Last edited by Wade; 05-28-2015 at 07:46 PM. |

Got some overtime coming on this weeks check. Hoping to stop at my LHS and see what they have in stock. It may be sooner rather than later! Recommendations for a decent budget friendly 2.4 rx/tx setup? |

I have a pair or ruggers myself, so I waited till my oldest was old enough to drive a car. The wife hasn't caught on that every time my son breaks some thing on his car two sets of upgraded replacement parts show up. The only downside is when his rig goes down, he ends up with my parts to keep it running. Small price to pay to have a crawling buddy. |

Welcome! Another dad here, and I wouldn't have gotten back into the hobby if I couldn't share it with our little guy (our daughter is understandably less interested). At first he just drove, but now he's helping with the builds: Look forward to seeing what you put together. Let us know how we can help! |

a suggestion for radio will depend how much you want to spend and if you are going to have more than two channels I still have the factory radio in my axial and is has treated me good if I ever change it will be with a traxxas
