Looking for Hobby Shops around Chicago.. I'm near Schaumburg

Quote

Post by aiko670 » Sun Feb 01, 2015 4:00 pm

Hello all-

I'm near Schaumburg, wasn't impressed with the Hobbytown. I used to go to venture hobbies when I was a kid but I think they're out of business.

I just bought an old RC10 on eBay and can't wait to get going again.

Thanks
Adam

Did you try the Hobbytown in Lake in the Hills? Way better selection than the one in Schaumburg on Golf Rd.

I have a trip to Paris coming up this Fall and I was wondering if anyone can tell me about the best RC hobby shops in the city. Google lists numerous shops, but I'd love know any member preferences. Thanks in advance!

Did you check out the tracks?

Didn't have time and I don't have any cars with me. I might be back this way in a year
