I'm looking also. I'm in the Mounds View Area of the TC.

I used to live out in Mounds View. Used to go up to the blaine area where there is often a bit of development construction and drive around in those.

We might need to look into setting up a MN Arrma club, this thread is starting to get a bit of traffic.


They are currently putting in a new skate park in Shoreview that is supposed to be done this spring. Hopefully they allow RCs to use it when not busy. ?

I’ve heard Jermey is a good guy.
Haven’t met him myself yet, but a guy at work and my father in law have both known him for a very long time.

That's pretty cool. Is that Sky Hobby over in Eagan off Yankee Doodle? Do they carry a decent amount of parts?

Edit - sorry I re read that and got the information needed. Haha it's been a long week

Regarding Rick's Hobby Farm - I would like to get out there this year but have never been otherwise.

I will be there in next weekend with my crawlers. I've thought about trying their indoor track but that's as far as I've gotten.

43 degrees today, who else got out for a bash? Ran 2 packs through Granny, managed my first front flip (after 10 fails) but at least I had a semi soft landing area Going to try again tomorrow

Cool, I've seen some pics of that place, Is the indoor crawling area large enough for bigger crawlers like a TRX-6?
