Tank
Been toying with one of these lately. Not really for the IR fighting capability, just seems like a fun RC that I've never experienced. Anyone have experience with RC tanks?

At least they stay put.

Here’s my “stay put” hobby.

RC cars/trucks/planes would be fun, but if I crash a beer, at least I don’t need to replace expensive equipment. Ingredients are fairly cheap.
Smoking equipment cuts into the brewing budget at times too.
But it’s all good. We all have things that we enjoy spending our hard earned cash on.

Looks like fun! This is my RC “toy” it’s a 52” lawn mower for steep slopes, of which I have many!

Heck, I’d buy one for my not steep slope yard. I’d probably enjoy mowing the lawn with that.

No. But I've thought about it many times.

If it runs as fast as my scag cheetah! That would be fun and worth tearing the yard up.

There are 3 levels of craft brew hobbyist. The first is similar to most smoker/bbq hobbyists here, and looks like the first pic. The second is more rational, and looks like the second pic. The third is the low-end, but still very capable brewer, and looks like the third pic.

I represent the 3rd pic, and have been doing it since 2007, using a 15 cf chest freezer with external temp control for my fermentation/conditioning chamber. I used to do a fancy draft system, but now bottle off in 2 liter soda bottles.

This philosophy goes along with my single lp gas grill and single electric smoker.

It has 2 speeds, low speed for mowing is about 5 mph and hi speed is about 10mph for transportation …
