I've tried a few and they seem fine -- although you'll note that HobbyCity/United Hobbies has them a *lot* cheaper than HobbyLobby.

Thanks XJet. I did notice that Tower's price on the HiTec's was much better also.

Any clue if the Scanner servos are the "same as anything else"?

Thanks again,

Ernie

Is it my imagination, or has United Hobby raised the price of shipping?

I put together an order consisting of a doz 9" props and a few small items and the cheapest freight was $20. Needless to say, I flushed the order. All of my previous orders have been much larger and heavier, but the shipping has never been over $12.

I have been very pleased with the service and products from United, but if this shipping cost is now correct, I don't think I can continue with them.

Yeah, its a little bit more money to ship from over there, I try to always buy bulk or else it evens out with higher priced stuff in the long run... They have a USA warehouse that is opening up soon so shipping should be alot cheaper... u can veiw it from there home page it talks about it somewhere on there.
