Surprising number of R/C flyers in this thread, myself included! I've been thinning my fleet latley (to fund my last reef build ) but I've currently got a Trex 450 Pro, and four planes including one purpose built to carry my GoPro for aerial videography. All electric.

After that my other hobbies at the moment are photography, autocross, and mountain biking. Sadly this whole work thing is really interfering with my leisure activities!

some awesome replies guys!! I guess it really doesnt come as much of a surprise to me how many people are into rc as well. its very much a tinkering hobby, much like aquariums are. or maybe i make it a tinkering hobby because thats what i enjoy =P

I do so many things. I can't keep up lol.
I am teaching myself the art of Pysanky, (drawing on eggs)
I have an embroidery sewing machine I like to work with fabric making table cloths, towel sets..You name it. I am trying my hand at making quilts. I make cage liners and houses for my critters. (WOW! since when did I become a big Gurl!? lol)
I read, Finally had to get an Ereader because I have boxes and boxes of books.
I'm about to take up Skidoo-ing.
In the summer time...Camping! fishing, boating.
last summer my Dad and I rebuilt his jet boat. I enjoy working with my hands.
I'm also a gamer. although I don't have a lot time to play with the kids and pets but I do like to play when I need down time.




I spent my childhood camping in farmers fields, and numerous other places while My Dad raced formula 1 and quickie rc planes every weekend (even when there was snow on the ground) . He was an active member of the rc clubs here in Calgary. The hours spent in his hobby room while he was building a plane from scratch while Mom read to him. She and Dad also used to race rc cars.
The smell of Hot stuff and mixed epoxy brings those days back.

I have a fish rescue. I have ads in the local papers "please don't flush your fish. Will even pay a small fee" Then I set up tanks in seniors homes, the hospital, anywhere there are folks in need, and maintain them on my dime.

I also rescue feral cats/kittens, rehab and socialize them, spay/neuter them and adopt them out at no cost. I've also rescued two horses from the meat truck, two bearded dragons, two red earred sliders, two gerbils and a fire-bellied toad. At times, I provide a foster home for dog/puppies and I can't even guesstimate how many cats/kittens we've rescued but our feral cat issue no longer exists in our neighborhood.

Ironically, I am an avid hunter of all North American big game, though I don't fish.

I Didn't add shooting because I just recently sold all my shooting stuff. I used o handload for my 223. shot out to 500 yards pretty good! But I had to prioritize my hobbies and unfortunately that one didn't make the list with a wedding coming up.
