Yep i brought the plane from the USA it did cost quite a bit to get it to the UK there are none available in the UK till end of October.... being realistic i will make a new hook out of carbon etc but that is not the issue, it ****** me off when they cannot even bother to reply hence i resorted to posting on web etc i have no problems what so ever with HobbyHorse that sold it they would not have know, in fact the help they gave in sorting out shipping was second to none it's just the arrogance of Fliton what's the point of sticking a contact page' on their web page but they do not even answer when customers have genuine issues.... STUFF EM!
