That's too bad about Great Hobbies...I didn't realize they don't ship outside of Canada/US amymore. I've got just one question for you, what frequency are European RC on? I'm not sure, but I seem to recall a thread about Europe being on a different band than the 72MHz used in North America. You might want to double check before you order anything. Also, in North America some radios "shift" in a positive direction and some "shift" in a negative direction....again, I thought I read somewhere that Europe doesn't...again, something you might want to check on.
