Coolest RC anything I've yet seen

[Shemp]

I've seen the airsoft RC battleships but never this. I personally find this to be just about the coolest RC ship I've ever seen.

That is pretty impressive

I had one as a kid, took it to the lake for 4th of July, got the bright idea to sick a bunch of sparklers on the deck and bow ..... needless to say it didn't make it back to the dock.

For some reason my parents would never buy me another

If there is a real one out there, someone somewhere has an RC version of it.

Forget blanks!

Load those cannon up with shot and see who the REAL captain is!

I built an RC airboat from scratch when I got tired of getting RC airplanes stuck in trees.
Used a .46 nitro engine and would scream. It'd get to about 11 or 12 mph on grass and over 30 on water. The gators hated it.

Now you can buy all the toys you want.

My buddy has one of these. It is essentially undriveable.

I had a buddy that had one. Even driving it fairly reasonably, something would break almost every time he drove it.

My son is on the school robotics team, and he got a small 4 prop drone for Christmas. If it's something he and I can do together I can see getting more into RC type stuff.

Sorry fellas, just another diversion of funds away from G & A!

I've been in the RC hobby since I started making a paycheck. Been wasting money on that since long before I got into guns and hot rods. I took a break from it for a while and missed the introduction of brushless motors and lithium batteries. When I saw that electric (which used to be a joke) was now faster than nitro, I got rid of all my old nitro stuff and got back into it with electric. Now I have a bunch of expensive toys that are constantly in some state of repair because the power output exceeds the durability of available parts. You can easily overpower the little bastards to the point that they basically self destruct. It's a money pit to say the least, but seeing a little 4 wheel drive monster truck busting 70mph is pretty cool.

I have to fight the urge to buy a drone that we can hang my son's go pro under and fly POV. Some of the stuff those things can do is awesome. They have a "go home" button that if anything goes wrong or the battery gets low it will automatically return to where it started and land itself.
