Ladies and gentlemen, I am done!

[mclarkson]

Today I bought a UM T-28 Trojan. It went in slot #10 of my DX6i.

That's it. My radio is full now. No more aircraft for me.

LOL
Looks like you've got to double up on your receivers, and bind two different receivers and models to the same channel. Then DON'T FLY WITH THE WRONG MODEL on your transmitter!

(Yes you can do this, some guys at our field on their giant scale models have dual Spektrum 2.4 receivers with separate receiver batteries on their model.)

I'm already on my second DX6i

Thinking about a JR9503 next

[SHADY]

The only downfall of my HiTec Aurora 9. It won't bind to the UM Spectrum Rx.
It has 20 model memory.
Had to go buy a new DX6i just for my UM's.....
I see a new Tx in your future....

[rcers]

You can't let that stop you! My wife and I agreed on 10 being my maximum. At last count I had well over 30 flyable (that is ready to go Rx, servos the works) models.

I do need to thin the herd.

[constantCrash]

DX8 ---- unlimited models (30 at a time)

[Nitro Blast]

<------ loves the Polk Seeker III's 99 model memory

(but already has 2 models on a RDS 8000)

Yup your not done you have only just begun.
My wife is confused as to what I have now. I was working on a plane and she said to me when did you buy that one in a somewhat concerned manner. I told her it is a plane that I have had for almost 1 year which is the truth. She says she can't tell anymore, because of the planes that are out in the garage waiting for repair or just scattered about.
I am short on space in the garage so it looks cluttered to her, but I know where things are.

So go out and buy another radio that can hold more models cause you are not done yet. You just need to be less organized so the wife can't tell what you have.

My wife tracks every penny of the budget. There's zero chance of sneaking a plane in somewhere.

My wife is into "Stamping Up". You think model airplanes are expensive???

(Every so often, she tells me to "Buy something!")

[gramps2161]

Are you talking stamp collecting?

[firemanbill]

I just bought my wife a new stove Friday night, I'm good for 10 or 15 more planes now!

[gramps2161]

Or finishing one very large C-130.

Nope, that's Stamping Up, as in making Christmas Cards, Easter Cards, Birthday cards, Valentines cards, and every one of them uses different stamps, colors, paper, bows, you name it!

Interesting enough, I did buy something through Stamping Up. A heat gun for those Stamps. The thing is ID'd as a model MT100, runs 350 watts, and has a 1/2 inch nozzle.

Your never Done trade in the DX6i for a 20 model memory DX7 and start all over again

Most everything I have, I get for free. All I have to do is fix / repair them. You would be amazed at what some people will toss in the trash. Crashed plane=free, motor and ESC from HC=$90.00, older 72mhz reciever=$20.00, flyable plane=$125.00. Not to bad.

[mclarkson]

10 planes x $125 = $1250.

This is why I never ever keep track of what I have spent on this hobby.
If I did I would have to seek help for my addiction.

[weathervane]

I have a lot more than 10 planes. I have about 28-30 but only 15 flyable. All the rest need a lot of work. I have 3-4 that I am going to take to SEFF and put free signs on, MAYBE.
