        Yeah, I do have alot of shelves. I need to sell some of that stuff, so I can buy more stuff to put on the shelves. LOL
        Oh, I forgot. Three planes, the largest with a 57" wingspan. And a highly modified skimboard. Casey and I got bored ond day and mounted a YS 61 airplane engine on it with a tuned pipe and 11-7 prop. That thing is INSANE!! It's leaning against a wall in the basement.

          Has beens..

          At least a dozen Electro-Vees have been either butchered or sold. Everything from 700s on 12 nicads to Ryobi router motors on 21 4300s.

          H20 sidewinder. Traded

          Prather 31 Traded

          Prather 40 Sold locally

          Miss Lumar Traded. my first electric/nitro conversion (one run with a 700 on 12 it was pitifull with that power)

          Mhz stealth rigger sold LSH

          Mhz Flash. sold in swap shop.

          Darkhorse shovel. partial trade. Hated to see her go, but running over budget.

          Current Fleet, most under construction!

          LSO/Pmono. Electro-Vee, 700 power, mister nozzel for cooling. What can I say, where the sv27 goes, I shall follow...

          LSH. Aussie Cabover, same power as above.

          N2. Taifuin 6xl

          P-Hydro. H&M lifter, more than likely 8XL for power.

          1/10 scale hydro (still on drawing board)

          Play/Fun boats

          ProBoat Cat
          Graupner Arrow

            Wicked how did you lose a Villain in a lake?
            I only have one boat, a SV27 that has yet to touch water since I bought it.
            To power it, I have quite a few pairs of quality NiMh packs purchased originally for my RC cars. I just hope to have it on the water before the lakes freeze over, but school takes priority.
            I'm glad I did my research before I purchased a Villain EX and will be starting with, IMO, the best FE boat at the time of purchase!

              not sure, hit something out in the middle of the lake the boat stopped. About 20 minutes later the nose came up and the rest went under. It was too late to try and retrieve it so I had to come back the next day. When I got there in the am (sunrise) I could not locate it, so either someone found it which I doubt or it sank. The reason I doubt that is the park ranger makes his rounds in a boat around the lake in the am before they open the gates, they found my micro hydro that way once and I got it back.
