Does anyone have Rc models they use. Cars/planes/helicopters?

I've got a small collection and now the weather is starting to improve its time to blow the dust off them. All 1/10th scale

Have a rock crawler

And a couple of nitro cars, the blue Celica is fairly stock and will do about 50mph

The red skyline isn't so stock, bigger engine with lightened flywheel, 2 speed gearbox, exhaust and intake changed, carbon fibre suspension and upper chassis, carbon fibre brake disc, uprated shocks/springs and anti roll bars, alloy wheels (rather then plastic), metal geared servos and will do about 80mph flat out but rarely get it flat out as run out of space quickly!!

And all Parked together (unimog shell on)

Its a type Severn, like my Great Aunt helped buy when she snuffed it (Spirit of Derbyshire at Ilfracombe)

I went upto the lake to try and film the work we have done over the winter using a car cam but we had capsizing moment (these dont self right!) and alas, I now have the camera above the fire drying out.......must try again when its nice!
 
That reminds me i have an unfinished project up in the loft from way back when my leg was in plaster , someone gave me a 38" Vosper something like the pic below which was a godawful mess of a botch job so i ditched everything but the hull and began converting it into a model of something like the mega yacht pictured .

I also have a Tamiya Blazing Blazer, circa 1983. 3 speed box with 2 or 4 wheel drive, all selectable from the transmitter. Freewheeling/lockable front hubs too. Quite rare and collectable now by all accounts. Just like this one.

1/16 scale King Tiger and Pershing tanks. Full digital sound, recoil action on main gun and other chuckle features. More fun than should really be legal
