r00st3r 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2009 I just didn't feel the need to add yet another intro topic to this part of the forum simply to introduce myself, and figured why not make a dedicated thread for the topic! Anyways, maybe a mod can pin this thread! I guess I'll start... I'm a super noob to the hobby! My brother got himself a Tamiya Lunchbox last week, and he let me take it for a spin.... hook, line, and sinker! I loved it!! So much that I ordered myself an RC yesterday! Soon to be the proud owner of a 1/18 scale LOSI Mini Desert Truck! Hopefully it will be just as much fun!! Anyways, I hope to make my stay here a long one as I get more involved in the hobby! Take Care, TTFN! -r00st3r Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kharntiitar 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2009 Hi All, I am very new to the scene .. this is my 3rd day in fact ... found the site after finding some of Squirrel's videos while searching for engine break in ... been trying to fly RC Heli's for a couple months with no success ... except to the LHS for spare parts when I crash... and thought I'd give RC Nitro's a go ... man, I WISH i hadda tried this first ... best fun I've had in ages ... literally years .. and thanks to squirrel's video's .. i have found the break in relatively easy!.. Cheers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve M 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2009 hey guys, another noooob here. my first nitro car ever with be arriving later this week, and i found this forum after doing some research and finding squirrels vids on youtube. i look forward to learning a ton about rc's and hopefully keeping the addiction to a minimum (i also collect/ride BMX and that addiction has gotten out of control). the good news is i've been a member of many different types of forums and make it a habit to use search before asking, but that doesn't mean you won't see a bunch of noob questions from me in the future, so please be patient. alright, thanks for the great site.
