Yep! As a Brit who is currently staying in the States, I can confirm that aeromodelling stuff is ridiculously cheap over here!
thats because Americans are ridiculously big.. sorry, i meant you have a ridiculously big customer base compaired to the UK, with all that support you've got buying power + you've not got our import prices.

that web site is just the clubs, mines on the way as soon i can i get this thing re-formatted and redo everything as Frontpage saved every pic at 70% quality ARGH!

$109, thats what, about 70 quid for a kit?... Now the Cornishman in me screams at that price, i could build and finish it for less. no way a profile could be more than 20 quid in balsa and ply. that is if you stick at the lovely 36 sizes.

So would any of these companys be interested in letting them be built under licence? theres places like Balsacraft that would do the cutting for a price.
