There are a few places that do, ushobbysupply does I think (I'm sure he'll see this thread sooner or later and reply) and helidirect and bananahobby also do.

I checked out the sites, looks like banana hobby is the only one that has them in stock,
Any other places to get the RTF Belt cp? Im trying to find a place that will take paypal payment as well.

Yup, RTF's hard to find right now in the US. I have ARTF (brushless, esc gyro, servos) right now, but your not looking for that :>
HBK2 RTF?

I did search google, xheli came up as the cheapest, but I dont trust them, they always mess up orders.
Thanks druss, i saw on the bottomn of the page only credit cards listed, but in checkout, there is like you said a paypal option, im going to wait for ushobbysupply to pm me before i decide where to order from.
Anyone have a good experience with bananahobby?

Seems that bananahobby may not be the best choice, more like the worst. I'm going to see how my order goes before I make any final comments. Sometimes it's hard to make a decision when there aren't that many choices.

Unless I've got the model info you're looking for wrong, raidentech claims to have them in stock as well.

Cross country ups 7 - 10 days unless it was sent priorty? I think thats what they call it? You should have a tracking number on the order or sales slip ( for the shipping ). If nothing else call ups and kindly B***H a little

The site in hk says you should be able to track on the US sister site ( USPS ) but it dont work! Ill wait 3 wks then Ill let my dist. have a peace of my mind! Sometimes it gets hung up in customs [:@] Seems that only happens to my shippments [:@][:@][:@][:@]

I've had shipments from hong kong take anywhere from a week to 6 weeks. Depends both on what shipping method and customs (sometimes the security part takes longer if they see batteries or wires...).
Also, I detest UPS, I can't stand them, even the UPS delivery guy who brought my last shipment to me told me to use USPS or Fedex.

i haven't had any trouble getting things from overseas, but i have wholesale accounts with all the places i deal with they tend to take care of businesses better then consumers. I think the cheapest i have seen the Belt-Cp RTF was $169 (i think)

I'm considering a new heli for my personal use (not that I actually have time to fly it). I thought I'd try the Honeybee King 2 (about $157 delivered), but now I'm considering the Belt CP (about $205 delivered). I know they're totally different size helis, but the Belt CP also has a brushless setup for the extra $48. It may also have HH gyro, and I don't believe the King 2 does. Does anyone here have experience with both of these?

I have both heli's. Like them both. I did start with the assembled kits, and not the RTF, as I already have my Radio of choice.
I did just recently help someone setup their HBK2, with stock radio gear, and it flew great. (after my fiasco with my HBK2 (my stupidity)), she now flies great. Just a little bigger than a BladeCP, but more stable.
The BeltCP is much larger, same size as TREX. But i feel that it is a better bird than my old trex. Maybe its me, maybe its my setup skills have gotten better, but its much more behaved than my TREX ever was.
