Hey everbody, i'm looking to unload my toybox to make room for a new helicopter.

*Boat Sold*  I have a hydroplane boat similar to the miss budwiser.  It has electric remote start, outboard drive, evenrude style water cooled engine, hull is 36 inches I think. Engine runs. Requires fuel(alcohol) electronics and batteries. 800 obo.



Also selling a hobico superstar trainer airplane.  It's never been flown.  Comes with engine, fuselage, radio and electroncs and new rechargeable battery packs and chargers.  Requires a $10 glow ignitor and fuel. I built this plane for a guy and never saw him again. His loss is your gain. Flight instruction included.  Asking $200. Sells new with extras for over $500.  Also including floats with this plane.



I'm also done with drifting.  up for grabs is a Traxxas 4tec modified for drifting. It was 4 wheel drive 60/40 split, then I made it front wheel drive and after that rear wheel drive.  It has a .16 trinity engine with a 2 speed automatic tranny. Top speed is about 55 and it gets there quick fast and in a hurry. It is possible to burn a set of tires in one day. This body is a Honda Civic that's pretty tore up.  It comes with a helicopter radio.  Requires a battery pack $13, new rear tires:), glow ignitor and fuel. I think it has yokohama advans on the front. Runs on alcohol.  $100
This is a really old pic, but It's the only one I have.  Rims are diff. and body has no more paint on it.


Also, I forgot one.  I've got a monster truck that runs well, but will need some work to get it going again.  It has a powerfull engine with a 2 speed auto tranny. It was the first in its class with reverse. It has almost new tires, a unique starting system(no pullstart), a $50 steering servo and comes with a few replacement parts.  The shocks need to be rebuilt and the engine will need rebuilt eventually. Requires a radio and reciever.  $80

What is the wingspan and size of the engine in the plane??  Is it a new engine?  Also, what radio comes with it and any pics??
Right off, it looks like a very good deal 

[twistedrcpilot]

The wingspan of the plane is 63 inches I believe. The plane has actually been flown once now(last thursday).   I thought I had a buyer and turns out he was just yanking my chain.  He showed me some cash and I figured it was sold.  Turns out he just wanted to fly. 

It has an 4 channel futaba radio (kinda old, but has been range tested and is functional).  The motor is a OS .40 with a 10x6 prop. I also have a Evo .46 that has about 6 gallons through it.  I think redline on this one is 17000 rpm vs. os's 11000rpm. I could toss that in for free.   It runs pretty good now, but, if you add a new piston and sleeve, that thing will scream!! That engine was built to spin a three blade prop so it's really torquey. I ran an 11x7 on it and was clocked at over 90 mph with a Hanger 9 Twist. (hince the name)

It's madian flight was interesting to say the least.  The OS .40la is a good engine, but does not have any of high end.  So taking off on the water is a bit difficult but it can be done. Once in the air, it flew effortlessly. Taking off on land should be no problem for this bird.

Cosmetics.  While putting on the floats, I poked a hole in the bottom of the fuseledge the size of a dime. I will fix that before it is sold.  Other than that it is in great condition.  The floats were never painted and are made out of molded plastic similar to a gallon of milk, but much thicker.

I hope that answers your questions, I'll try to post some pics soon.

Thanks for the info, RC.

I thought it was a 'land' plane.  Do the water crafts carry a different frequency requirement??  Which leads me to another question....is the frequency of the Futaba unit one of the currently used frequencies?  I sold some radios a number of years ago and shortly after that, the FCC (or whoever is in charge of that sort of thing) made the frequencies I sold illegal for RC planes.  It's been a long time since I have played with anything RC.  What you are offering is a very good deal.  I'll ponder on it for a while.

BTW, you've got a really good looking ride.   

[twistedrcpilot]

It was a land plane.  It has a tricycle gear setup(Included) The floats are an add-on.

I did a little research and it is a narrow band reciever as opposed to the wide band reciver that picks up microwave, cell phones, and vibrators...lol.  Anyway, wide band is not illegal, just frowned upon. 

If you'd like to talk more about it, I'm at 281-703-0068.

Thanks again, RC.   Yeah, it was a trike gear I was looking for.  Actually, I like to build my own, but, yours is a really good deal.

I'm afraid this will have to be put off.........I had to have surgery on my foot this morning.  It will be plenty of $$$ on top of the taxes I owed.   I will give you a call if the situation improves in the near future.  I really appreciate your responses.

Take care, man..........and stay safe.
