I hate _______!

[Lessen]

Fill in the blank.

What is your least favorite R/C task? I know we all love our hobby and get much enjoyment out of it but I'm sure there is at least one task that bugs you.

I hate gluing tires!

 

[Revo Rancher]

I'm going to give my top three, in order, worst first:

making T/C turnbuckles (may hands are too big and get cramped up)
gluing tires
building shocks

 

[jmarzilli]

I would also say gluing tires. I always glue my fingers together.

 

[beason]

i dislike UNglueing tires. like if you damage a wheel. i can never get the tires off without ripping them. and i havent done it yet but I'm sure this ball diff i gotta rebuild will be up there on the list.

 

[ImBroken]

When it comes to electrics, I'd have to say....

I HATE SOLDERING......

 

[1500valk]

I hate building shocks! I hate building turnbuckles even more!

 

[FastEddy]

I hate not having the proper tool to make any of the above tasks easier. Other then that, Setting gear mesh.

 

[sweetdiesel]

I hate sealing the backplate and carb, whenever I'm done it always looks like I smeared boogers all over the place.

 

[jetmechG550]

Rebuilding difs! Disassemble, break it down, clean it, build it up, fill it, put it all together, re-install it, realize you went the wrong way with the fluid, start over!

 

[bustedgears]

I hate trimming a new body. Especially the proline ones, since they're so thick.

 

[olds97_lss]

I'm with jetmech... I hate re-building diffs. It's expensive, messy, hard to get at and in general, just annoying.

I don't mind shocks, body trimming, rebuilding pretty much anything else other than the diffs.

I really enjoy tearing an engine down and cleaning/resealing it.

 

[Carbon_Savage418]

I Hate That There is nobody near me to bash with.

I hate that there is only one off-road track in my whole entire state and that its 2 hours away!!!!!!!

 

[Lessen]

I hate sealing the backplate and carb, whenever I'm done it always looks like I smeared boogers all over the place.

reminds me of my tire gluing.

 

[4u2nv]

I'm with Carbon! Noone to bash with sucks. Thats my most hated thing about Rc's where I live. My LHS is a close 2nd and third would be that the nearest track (Which sucks) is 2 hrs away.

 

[Buggyracer28]

I hate cutting body mounting holes after I paint the body. Its ALWAYS off by a little bit.

Diffs also suck...

I hate that the only person I drive with on a regular basis is my brother... and many of you know why that is bad... lol

 

[JESSE G]

I too hate not having someone to bash with ocassionaly by bro goes out with me and he drives my E Rustler. I also hate when you go to repair one problem and cause another. Like i just replaced my front bearings on my RC10Gt and when I was tightning the front wheel the stub axle snapped in two .It was stripped out from the previous owner. I also hate when all i need is something simple like the stub axle and my lhs doesn't have it in stock and I have a hard time finding one on line.

 

[robmob]

I hate noobs who become experts after 5 days of owning their first nitro RC.

Also hate glueing tires. Although after putting together a set of proline beadlocks with all those tiny screws, glueing the tires doesn't seem so bad.

 

[SpitFireV12RR]

I'm with jesse...I hate going to the hobby store and them having every piece EXEPT the one you need...like those stupid Hump Packs. THey have the hump packs but no chargers!

 

[AC48]

I hate cutting out bodies most of all.
I hate having noone to bash with.
I hate gluing tires.

 

[digger]

I hate having to drive an hour one way to get fuel, because the guy at the hobby shop 10 minutes away thinks he is an RC God.

I do love the look on his face when I told him I bought my stuff somewhere else.
