    Default Hobbies

    I know there are threads on RC and computer building, but I figured everyone has other hobbies besides cigars. I spend a lot of time hunting/fishing, rebuilding project vehicles, and going to the lake. What do you guys do for hobbies?

    @Bill...wow you're crafty. I should give you my grandmother's email and you guys could trade techniques.


    I'm currently taking lots of pictures, and I'll be golfing as much as possible this summer.

    I've been looking at buying a plane. What would you recommend for a beginner?

    Super Cub LP is a great starter. It's a foam plane and is only 3 channel rudder, tail, and throttle. About $200 for everything including Lipo battery and charger. Can also buy an optional float set to land and take off from water. Although foam, pretty durable and easy to fix. Check youtube for videos.

    It's interesting how auto manufacturers use all kinds of parts. I pulled a 1980 CJ7 apart with the stock driveline, it had an abc 4banger and ford tranny!

    Oops, got my MINI's confused, sorry. The Peugeot is in the current MINI. Gen 1 had the Chrysler/Rover(owned by BMW) Tritec motor - originally designed for the Neon, but never installed as Daimler-Benz bought Chrysler.
