Default RE: Importing to the UK

For me the main thing lacking in the UK is the avaliablity of hardware etc for large models. I had to travel to germany for the stuff i needed for my 44% cap. I've now got real quality in the hardware on the model, but i've never seen anything like the quality here in the UK.

I also had to wait 4 weeks for a powerbox for the Cap, in the US theres many different types readily available.

I know that us Giant flyers in the UK are a minority, but i thinl someone could make some money from importing the smaller stuff(hardware/electronics etc) which you cant get here.
