Anyone care to show your most prized RC possession, be it complete kit, or part? Value means nothing so its just what your dear to. One item only please. Might be fun. :)

Of all my projects, this one took the most time and work, and is the most bulletproof. The suspension on this thing is amazing; no matter how flat or crooked I drop it from a foot or two high, it plants itself with zero bounce or rebound. I'd miss this car the most if anything happened to my small collection.

My most prized possession I can't show you because I am saving it for a build I hope to start soon,

a surprise :wink:

A prized possession early thin arms, I have had them out on a shelfer, now back in the bag,

Mine have small webs so they are later?

I am going to use these for a RC10ST build.

Cheers, Dave. :)

Probably not what you all are thinking, but for me it would have to be my AE .21 MGT. This is what got me back in the hobby about 11 years ago or so. I still have it and will never let it go. :wink:

My most prized RC possession is a work-in-progress:

Image

1:8.5 scale Land Rover Series III 109 station wagon, scratch built out of aluminum. Been working on it for a year and a half now. Losi Mini Crawler mechanicals, Tamiya leaf springs, RC4WD tires and wheels. Nobody has, or ever will have, one like it. There's more time and effort in this already than the rest of my cars combined, and I'm not even half done.

Mine will actually be arriving any day now. Something I've been trying to track down for years...and it's autographed.

Pics will be posted once I have it. :wink:

Thanks and No I didnt do one here and the one on clodtalk kinda fizzled out and died. Always and forever a work in progress. BIG shout out to RC10eh for killing his stash of kyosho golds for this project. :D

My RC12i is my most prized car. It looks fast just sitting there. Think I'll build up a faux battery for it this weekend. Maybe add some diamond wing buttons.

Is it ok if it's more than one? I can narrow it down to three, couldn't choose one over the other.

I'm in that same boat. My most prized r/c's are the ones i still have since childhood and will never go anywhere (Midnight Pumpkin, Parma Sport Truck, Rc10 graphite team car...... even my Tyco Turbo Outlaw).
