Re: Time to geek out
Yeah what happens if it crashes, is it wrecked?
Re: Time to geek out
nah, in the same Fan jet section of the site, they have a very nice Blue Angels era F/A-18 for the same price as the F15, some guy crashes a similar one and it's simply an epoxy job to get it back together.

Re: Time to geek out
Depends on how badly you crash - we did 1/8 scale trucks for a while and I did everything from blow a tire to break my engine mount and shear the carb off my motor - one costs $8 and some glue, the other I ended up dropping a little over $200 for a new motor. Not to mention the time it takes to fix it all.
... And that's for a vehicle only going between 35-45 mph and already touching the ground (well, mostly).
Good luck, my friend :)
