On a quest to find the best hobby shops in the area…read more... I've been traveling around to the few hobby shops that are left these days on a quest to find the overall best hobby shop. I love the RC car hobby. trying to find knowledgeable people can be difficult at best. First impression: trying to find a parking spot around the hobby shop can be a bit difficult. They do have parking in the back and I was able to find a spot midday on a Tuesday. But I'm guessing forget about it on weekends. The front portion is the retail store and the back portion is a mid-size dirt track. Complete with a pit area where you can work on your cars. I was pretty impressed if you like electric cars. Probably out of luck if you like your nitros. The store portion was organized. Of course everywhere I go I find all the Traxxas RC stuff. Traxxas really has the hooks in deep with the various hobby shops. The shop was stocked adequately. Guess I was expecting to see more variety of various RC stuff. There were planes and some boats around. But obviously RC cars is there sweet spot. Regarding the staff: I must admit this is where they excel. The owners is a very nice lady who started the biz back in 2011. The employee I first spoke with was new, but very friendly. The owner Kristen came over and we got into a nice conversation. She was very attentive and helpful. She answered my questions. I told her I was new to the area and she was happy I stopped out. Final thoughts: I definitely will be going back as I like that they have a repair shop. Cost is $30 per hour which is pretty standard for the industry. I'm about 40 minutes away, but I feel it's worth it to deal with a knowledgeable hobby shop. The only other close hobby shop would be in West Allis near Milwaukee. I'll be heading there next in my quest for the best hobby shop! Only things I would caution are that it's tight parking as the downtown area is busy. And inventory in stock maybe be a bit slim. Good job done Burlington Hobbies

Century Electronics was located in the same plaza. My friends and I would go in the store and look at all the hifi stereo equipment. This was probably nearing the end of the HIFI stereo era which produced the best iconic stereo equipment of all time. Needless to say we were tolerated even tho we couldn't afford anything in the store. Fast forward 30 years. My collection of stereo equipment was all manufactured before I was born by a good decade. It's the type of equipment that you get fixed and will never ever see the bottom up a dumpster. The number of individuals still alive with the skill to service these units and restore them to their glory is dwindling every year that goes by. Century Electronics has not 1, but 2 old school techs that can fix anything from Marantz receivers, McIntosh tube amplifiers to speakers all made before the Vietnam war. They take pride in their work and preserve quality by refusing to use cheap Chinese capacitors and other inferior parts. This is the only place I will take my equipment. Don't expect to walk in for the ABT style showroom with 100k of product. The back room repair shop is where it's at here.
