Thats true I was always behind the local shops......until......I got into stuff you can't buy from Tower Hobbies, since thats where they get it from. Thats when I got the blank stare everytime I wanted something trick, and at my shop there was a famous 3-D pilot that goes by the first name of Yuri behind the counter. And when they did "special order" something it would get lost in UPS for a month or two. I think they just wanted me to go away. Now, I'm not speaking for all shops, I'm sure there are great ones out there. But I'm sure this guy with the template problem has never flown anything that you can't buy from Tower Hobby. Thats why he's so hung up on Aerowerks and Hanger 9 cause you can't pick up a magazine without seeing one so they must be perfect. Let him get one of those and not only will he get the engine on perfect but it will even fly itself and prove that it was the right choice
