No, it hasn't been available since HiTec/RCD took over the Multiplex line. Last time I asked HiTec about it, I was told it would remain available in Europe but they had no plans to import to the US. I'd like one myself, but guess I need to order out of EU. Too bad, it's a nice unit. Ken C

Any idea where to order?

Checkout www.ModelmaniacsOnline.co.uk They should have an email link on the website. Ask if they'll ship overseas. I know they have a pretty extensive line of Multiplex accessories on the website. Good luck and let me know how you make out.

Looks like they only do business in the UK. Here's another option.

That looks pretty good, BUT, remember that Multiplex transmitters are considerably larger than any of the Asian radios out there. I would ask in advance if that tray will accomodate a Multiplex radio. Ken C

I already have a tray that I use with a neck strap. Thought the shoulder one would be more comfortable. Also could leave the harness on and just unclip the tray when not flying.

YUes, I've borrowed the Multiplex one with the shoulder strap and it is much more comfortable. The neck strap can be very uncomfortable. Good luck in your search.

I bought the Madison Products harness and am quite satisfied with it. Much more comfortable than the neck strap.
Had to change the eye bolts from bent to straight and shorten them to accommodate the harness.

Maybe someon can post some details about the European harness with photos and dimensions of the straps.
It should be easy to duplicate at a relatively low cost.

The transmitter trays for Evo is on the page 53 in the Multiplex product catalogue:
http://www.multiplex-rc.de/cms/vorsc...talog_2008.pdf
The catalog is in german []. I wonder why Multiplex does not publish in english catalogs anymore.

The tray is available ie. in the Staufenbiel webshop. I don't know if they ship overseas.
