My wife isn't a big fan of my heli addiction but that doesn't stop me from repairing crash damage. I have one word for you...CASHBACK! When you go to the grocery store for the standard supplies, just get an extra $20 here and a $40 there. Before you know it, you'll have plenty of $$ for spare parts. A whole new heli or any other major purchase is a different story. I just buy her a new Coach or Luis Vuitton purse and follow that with a major heli-related aquisition. For me, the cost of entry into the hobby was a new Lexus GX470 which allowed her to turn a blind eye to the Trex450SE and Logo 10 3D (and supporting equipment).

Seriously though, if you can't afford a repair after a crash, this may not be the hobby for you.

I got the best wife ever....

I have the best wife, she's young 27, (check my biography to see my age) she is very beautiful, honorable and a full supporter of my heli hobby. She is always asking me what I would like next and then she sneaks out and gets it for me. This is probably do to the fact I always get her gifts all the time and she is just trying to get even, LOL anyhow she is great, goes to the flying field with me sometimes and shares much of my builds and maitenence when I do so. My work bench is in one corner of the room along side of her computer station in our spare bedroom. We sit in there after are day of work and talk away as I fiddle with my heli and she works on her Mac computer I bought her ( Mac is not cheap but she loves it). Together we always are and together we will always be. I very much enjoy my heli's however I never lose site of my true love. I do my best to be sure that all is fare, thats really all a woman wants isn't it.I never let her forget that there is nothing more important to me then her. heli and wife's can coexist, its just about proper management, understanding and love.

Just got one 6-25

My new Align 600N is awesome, received it 6-25 and no she will probably never see this post, just trying to shed light on how we can have our heli's and a happy wife at the same time, works well on my end....
Still havnt had time to do any building on my 600N yet, besides making sure the wife is happy I have to work a hell of a lot to support everything, she works a lot as well.

Although i am not married my girlfriend lets me fly anytime i want, she knows how much i enjoy it and she will come along sometimes too. I dont let her know how much somethings cost but then again i dont ask her how much she spends on a dress or a night out. Dare say she wont bat an eyelid when i get home tonight and say im going flying, she will only ask what time i will be back so she can have the dinner ready!!. She's a good girl!.

This is a fun hobby! I try to be a great girlfriend. I absolutely love going to watch my boyfriend fly his heli's and I have even had fun working on them with him. I am even considering getting myself a little one to start flying! For me, its about seeing him doing something that makes him happy that makes me happy! Plus, I like to get the camera out and take some awesome in flight pictures!
