This is the reason why i have not ordered a 2m Viperjet yet as well. I even asked how long to get a bare white airframe (if i have to paint it myself, in order to get it in a reasonable (less than 4 weeks) then so be it). Price was only a few hundred less, but they still quoted 8 to 14 weeks to delivery. I'll put my money towards other items i can get in a few days.
