Time for some soul searching fun...

Say you just won a whole bunch of money that you are free to spend (at least a chunk of it) on RC stuff...

What is the ONE item that you will get (RC related) ?  In other words, what is your foremost wish list item (that is not inexpensive) !

Seriously? I would end up owning Hobbyking!

Jokes apart, I would love to get myself a giant scale Focke Wulf FW 190 D with the most expensive radio around.

JR 11X

http://www.jrradios.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=JRP1100

the website calls it affordable.Yeah right.

assuming that I just won 10 crores!
the first and foremost thing that I would do is, buy a huge plot of land, level it off and build a completely advanced aerodrome, airport, helipad and a refueling center for RC stuff only..Which will also house cottages for out of state fliers and forum members. Open up a training center for interested and enthusiast hobbyists..
And buy a Suzuki GSX 600

or did I speak too much too soon? 

I was looking for more of the VC and Ashish type of replies   Not the "I want to solve world hunger" type from controlflyer !

Personally, I would get into turbine flight (I have to admit that it is not too much out of my league as is, but easy money would be a great motivation!)

hahaha..I was being too patriotic I suppose!
but anyways, we are all different people and have different little minds of our own, one does not know what the other holds!

I would buy this one...
Shreekant

Sorry, only RC stuff

JR 11x is an interesting product.  A lot of JR users got really upset because just before it came out, many went out and bought the JR 12X for double the price !  Then the 11X came out with better features and half the price, immediately causing the 12Xs take a huge dent in resale value ! 

There was quite a bit of discussion on the forums about this.

Guess! nobody has anything in mind yet!! or are you guys still digging your wish lists?
BTW, I am 104 posts old in 29 days!

JR11x is only 750$. whats the big deal?

It depends on the individual.  There are a lot of people for whom $750 is a significant deal (especially in the Indian context). Plus, even for people who can afford it, the easy money would be a great motivation to get whatever IT is that they want immediately !

In short, this question is more about what will be your next significant purchase, and less about the price of the item itself !

How big is the bunch going to be?
because members now are going to open their wish baskets and believe me we as individuals have the weirdest RC stuff in our minds, mine was weird enough for a start!
Ok! lets give that bunch a significant number, shall we?

hahahaha! fantasizing condition eh??

Crazy pilot(sir), still after customs and stuff it will be very expensive.Who spends that much on a radio when a DX7 can do pretty much all that?still retails for 1200$.

Even my English(which I suppose is good)takes a turn for the worse.

Firstly, I would get a full sized E Revo Brushless, with its lipos etc.. Then I would get its little brother the Mini E Revo. RealFlight G5, Spektrum DX3S, E-Flite Blade CP for learning in real life, move on to a T-Rex 600.. Then will build a small trainer foamy, and finally move on to a 4-Site!!

Oh yeah,Divyam reminded me,the Spektrum DX3s with all the telemetry.

I hope this topic keeps swelling up just like this.

But seriously, someday I DO wish to own the largest, best stocked toy / model shop in India. That has been a long cherished dream. A shop that will cater for all hobbyists starting from Basic Chuck Gliders to Turbine powered models. Comprehensive stocks of aero, submarines, ships, trains, cars, scale plastic kits, modelling supplies, electronics - you name it. If there is one thing that I want to achieve in my life, then this is it. Hobbyking + Towerhobbies + Toys R us+ Hamleys all rolled into one!

A dream remains a dream till you add a deadline to it. Then, and only then, does it become a GOAL. Dreams die hard, Goals can achieved.

Even if I do have a deadline, I do not wish to disclose it here..............

I would buy the large piece of land nearby so that i can do any flying , testing there whenever i want without joggers running around! Then i would get myself a HPI baja and balsa wood as that is all i need now Oh and a donation to rcindia sweepstakes
