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?

:unsure:

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 :rolleyes:

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! :lol:

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

:D

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 :D:D:D:D:D:D

Me being me cant just have a 'learner' one i had to go the full works and get a 7 channel one, and even with the learner sticks on the bottom AND a gyro still managed to crash it loads. Never learned to fly it and now thinking about getting another one when i get back as i cant accept failure!!! :angry:

Aye up alexasigno don't mean to be a numpty but what the hell is tiger? I have a good guess but you never know. I know you can rub viagra in your eyes to make you look hard but with a tiger, l don't fancy that much.

:D
