Sometimes I think I got in the wrong hobby.....I should have done R/C
electric cars or nitro. I say this because I CANNOT FIND ONE DAMM
SPEED 400 MOTOR AT MY LOCAL HOBBY SHOPS UNLESS I ORDER ONLINE. EVEN
THAT ORDER CAN GET BACK ORDERED........plenty of R/C car motors!!!
Well; can I use them???

    Thanks for any info
          Mike

P.S.  Sorry fo "yelling"......but it can get alittle frustrating.

Plenty online.

What you haven't appreciated is that when you gave up Slimers, you stop
needing a car as well, cos you fly in the back yard.

So no leccy modellers go to model shops any more, except on museum
visits. They use the Internet, credit cards and the postal service to
get their goods faster and cheaper.

The LHS is going to stock what they think they can sell.  If the local
market is cars, that's what he'll carry.  Either accept this and order
online or order through the LHS.  If you can generate some local
interest in electric planes, maybe he'll invest in some more stock.

Check our www.aircraft-world.com .  From Japan, but lots of leccy stuff, and
only $2.50 shipping worldwide.  I've done business with them, and I'll
probably do more.  I get my stuff in about two weeks.
