How many of us have slowed down or stopped on other hobbies before the club consumed all your time and funds. It sure put a hurt locker on me. Here you see my #1 hobby after retirement in January, 2011. Cost me thousands to self school (learn) to fly, repair and adjust these fun RC kids toys. I should have purchased the flight simulator first! Haven't flown any since before the convention, don't want to spend my money on parts.
