Not at the moment. It's a hobby I've been meaning to find time for. My dad and uncle were into radio controlled airplanes. That was pretty cool, but I was a little kid. I'm not sure if any of the stuff works anymore. But Radio Shack, bucking their trend away from electronic components and towards consumer electronics, has introduced a line of radio controlled components. I've been thinking it would be cool to get into, because you can mix and match stuff with their system... From the looks of it, you could even make a Battlebot if you wanted to (whatever happened to that show/contest, anyway?). But anytime I have money, there's always something better to spend it on, or someone that needs it.

haha yeah i know what you mean. But really i wouldnt get into the radioshack thing, because if you get into the real hobby level R/C you can do all that stuff , plus it willl have more speed, better performance and handling, and what not.Plus their might not be parts readily available for the Radioshcak "hobby level" as with hobby level their are usually shops around, or you can use the internet for parts.
