RE: $300, no Radio
Shipping is only a long term affair when you use a China based supplier, I use US Hobby Supply, and they ship next day Priority Mail my orders are in my hands 3 days later.
Just bought a new King-3 from them, got it in 3 days. great service and great shipping.
IMHO I do not feel Esky is a bad product.
Esky and Alignboth crash and a pile of broken parts is a pile of broken parts.
At leas the King 3 is affordable to repair.
