daglad Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I watched a programme about radio control submarines the other day. Think about that for a moment. Yep, you push your submarine into the lake press the submerge button and there it is gone. Half an hour later up it comes. Marvellous you have just watched a lake for 30 mins. Next question, what happens if it brakes down under water how the hell would you know, are where the bloody hell do you look for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator YamaHead Posted January 19, 2005 Moderator Share Posted January 19, 2005 What would make that hobbie NOT quite so pointless, is if you had a small on-board camera mounted to that sub ......otherwise it just boils down to Blind Faith in what you can't see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Alex Posted January 19, 2005 Admin Share Posted January 19, 2005 Yeah you can buy tiny wireless videocameras for models. Sadly this is from experience! I used to have a helicopter which had one, i had it for about 6 months then gave up with it. Took me about the same time just to get the stupid thing to hover and cost me a fortune everytime it tipped and smashed the rotors! Wish i had kept it up though, as apparantly they fly identical to a real one and it is possible to go from a model to the real thing! Well thats if someone would let you! Out in in Australia i bet a sub would be quite fun especially ramming the sharks with it! And looking for nemo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Took me about the same time just to get the stupid thing to hover and cost me a fortune everytime it tipped and smashed the rotors! lol. now now, i know that r/c helicoptors dont just 'trip' its down to the inexperianced pilot! did you have one of those training hula hoop type things on the bottem of it by any chance?

daglad Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 My mates got a couple of planes, l don't want to appear an anorak but the tiny 3.5bhp engine is a work of art. as l recall it was the only bit left after a small altercation with ground apparently he just can't keep it up longer than 30 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjam Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Helicopters are brill. I flew one and it's really hard to hover. My neighbour lost his plane. A gust of wind caught it and lifted it out of range, then it looked to come down about 3 miles away near our hospital. Gutted, but funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator YamaHead Posted January 20, 2005 Moderator Share Posted January 20, 2005 Did a paintjob for a friend once, on an RC boat that went like Hell! He had a hopped-up 30cc Weed-Eater motor in it.......that would spin to 20k! He paid me with my 2nd Air-Brush, that works just great! Nothin' quite like Stroker fumes on the water.
