Default MAN Plans

Hello all,

I've built a few arfs and a few kits. I really enjoyed building so I thought I'd give scratch building a shot. I saw some plans in Model Airplane News that looked interesting so I ordered them through rcstore.com. After a week I checked on the order and saw that it hadn't shipped yet. I called them and was told that it may take 4-5 weeks for them to ship the plans! I'm glad I didn't pay for expedited shipping.

Anybody else have that experience with MAN or is this unusual?

The plan market is like that. They keep the top 20 or whatever ready to ship but they cant keep 1500 plans ready to ship. I tend to order some of the older designs so I know I am in in the que for the printer. Any way if they did keep 1500 ready there would be a good chance it has been sitting in the shelf for 8 years, dusty and yellow.

Yep! Thats about par for the course. Takes a little longer sometimes for RCM.

Thanks guys. I guess that's my first lesson in patience. I've got a feeling I'm going to need a lot of that.
