Hey Ron why does my name sound familiar to you? PM me if you would like to delve into the mystery and see if its just coincidence or if our paths have crossed in the past.

I think your name "Matteus" and my name "Mattiuz" are pronouced the same. Both names are versions of the name "Mathew", I believe.
Also, isn't there a nice Portugese rose wine named Matteus?
Or is it Mateus?

1. Yearly expenditure on R/C. 3-4k
2. Number of kits bought per year. 2-3
3. Exenditure on Electronics and Engines etc. per year. 1.5-2k
4. Expenditre on Fuel per year. 250.00
5. Expenditure on Repairs - If I can't fix it with glue and covering, I either give it away or burn it.



If I can get it at my LHS I buy it. I will even buy stuff from them if it's something that they need to order in with a regular sotck order from a supplier they regularly deal with. What drives me nuts is when I ask for something, I get the oh, I can get that for you. Then they special order it and then want to tag on shipping, etc plus a 50% margin. That even applies to the mail order houses. And you gotta watch it since I've had mail order lie about thier stock status just to get the order. Much better these days it seems. If I am mail/internet ordering I tend to deal with the specialists for a particular product as they seem to stock what sells for thier market and have the most volume for those products so they are both knowledgeable and competitively priced.
