Year round so far. I n the summer I work out side all day so coming home and sitting in the air conditioning ranks high on my list.

I also model year round, whenever the weather is too bad to do anything outdoors.

Hey there Zokissima! I love checking out the Hobby Lobby web site. On the left side you'll see a link titled "Electric RC Airplanes". Once on the new page scroll down a little bit and you'll see a link for their Warbird and Military Electric RC Aircraft.

Enjoy!

Eric

PS. I'll try to attach the link. Give this a try. http://www.hobby-lobby.com/warbirds.htm

Also, GWS is another company to look into.

I have my modeling space always open and try to build all year, but in the summer, when temperature is too high i can't concentrate enough. I hate too much heat!

Electric RC warbirds??? I've never seen that. Only flying models of warbirds I saw are all gasolene engined. I have an electric RC airplane, but it's not a model of anything, just a body with a shaft for the tail, two servos and a big wing Smile [:)]
Any place I can take a look at RC warbirds on the net?

While my first love has always been scale plastic model aircraft, I find that now I'm building them primarily (but not exclusively) in the colder months. In the warmer months I tend to gravitate towards my electric RC warbirds. That way I'm still technically working on model airplanes AND I can go outside and enjoy them and the weather.

Year round. I have another hobby, but it requires Bright Sunny weather on the weekends. That seems like the best time for rain, so I end up planning for things around my modelling Smile [:)]

I'll work out on my patio on nice days and since I have a condo-I can model instead of mow.

Summer, spring, winter, whatever, doesn't really matter, BUT I do tend to build a lot less in the summer, as I'm outside a lot more.

I build when ever I feel like it, summer or winter it doesn' t matter. But I have to admit that its in the winter I build the most.

Do you build models in the spring/summer?
Posted by RichardI on Thursday, April 8, 2004 8:45 AM
I find I'm only interested in modeling during the fall/winter. I just can't bring myself to work on a model in the nice weather. Am I unique or do you guys find the same? Just curious.
