RE: Mini P-51D from Horizon/Parkzone
LHS tells me no delivery till next week, maybe. The owner didn't seem too excited so that date is probably soft. So I bought the E-flight P-40 300.[8D] I started a thead in the parkflyer and backyard section.

Yeah, they just changed the date again. It seems like we had this conversation a while back, about whether the posted time would be correct. I admit I took that into account on the Micro 4-site. If I see the 4-sitethis year I will be happy to be completely wrong. I did get a dx6i ordered up, hopefully I will see it next week. And I still have the ar7000 without a home.
I also tweaked my MS composit Swift2 to around 320w/ pound, I think that will get me some serious go.

4-site is months out, I think. P51 is weeks out I think. David E made a huge point of they were going to hit the mark. And I was mean. They are only 1 month past due at this point on the P51.

Wheelnut, Should I alert you on the BOC thread? This is quite curious.
OK, here is my program. I have programmed the SU-26 into my TX. My T-Rex 450 and tx will go to a heli guy to set up. The DSM2 gear also has a home.
The P51 will be supported

Thanks Tim,
I am checking in "Now and then" but I got tired of getting an email notification every time someone comes on and ask when the plane is going to ship. I feel like I'm driving my son to Disney and he keeps asking, are we there yet? I just want to scream. The plane will get here when it gets here. I'm sure David feels like that down in his heart.
We will definitely need a new thread for when people actually start getting them.

Saw one at my LHStoday. Was sorely tempted to buy it, but then what would I get for Christmas? Plus I was hoping some of y'all would be reviewing it for me first. It's in California waiting for you if you want to make the drive!

RE: Mini P-51D from Horizon/Parkzone
I drove to the LHS with 2 goals. Drop off myT-Rex so they could fix it. Something wonky in the programming. And pick up my eagerly awaited P-51. I figure that this will be my last plane buy until the 4-site. They did not have them[>:]. So they called HH and asked what is the deal. It seems that unless you bought the "starter pack" the order would wait until next week.
Oh and I have the Heli as well, the owner had to go back home early, and that is three hours minimum over the mountains and through the woods

So, this is an interesting conundrum. Since the LHS is a small store, and the manager, orders several Micros, most importantly the P-51.
Can someone tell me a good reason for an LHS? Other than the freewheeling discussion?

My LHS is a 45 min drive. I do buy a lot from them but I usually get my Hobby Zone order the day after I order it so sitting in my truck for an hour and a half (round trip) costs me more than shipping.[]

RE: Mini P-51D from Horizon/Parkzone
I am being grumpy that the owner of my LHS doesn't stock the planes I want. And that he didn't order enough mustangs to get them in the first round. I also have to order everything, whether from home or at the LHS. I did get them to order up the starter pack for the 4-site. Therefore, what is the purpose of having an LHS?
Fern
For the record it is more of a rhetorical question.
