Scott, just wanted to add that I've ordered from both GrandRC and RC DumbThumbs with good results (both had fast shipping).

Cool, thanks, Bill! I _think_ I've ordered from Grand RC, but I'm not really too sure right now. Heck in the last year, I've ordered so much stuff online that it's really quite sick.  Scott (getting down with the sickness) |

Hey Guys Now the the forum is spoilt. Anyway please add www.flyinghobby.com or www.infinityhobby.com I have ordered from both. Flying hobby to my mail box in Florida in 48 hours, and Infinity hobby rocks for me. 30 hours from Taiwan to the british virgin Islands. For me(where I live) their option was FEDEX. Cheers Philip |

Hey Scott... I should have come on over here before I asked for those links yesterday!! Just for the record - your link above for Flying Hobby should have a dash between Flying and Hobby! www.flying-hobby.comEDIT: Just to give you an idea of shipping times with express from FH: Date # Location Delivery Status 5-Jan-2010 Hong Kong Item posted and is being processed. 5-Jan-2010 Hong Kong Processed for departure. 5-Jan-2010 Hong Kong The item left Hong Kong for its destination on 5-Jan-2010 6-Jan-2010 Australia Arrived and is being processed. 6-Jan-2010 Australia Pending customs inspection. Not even 24 hours since I ordered yet and it's in Perth awaiting customs!! We di have the advantage of being in the same time-zone however!! Regards Jon |

Hey Jon,
No problem, bro! It doesn't matter where you get the information--as long as you get it!
That's cool that parts get to you so quickly! I can't wait to see more of your flying! You rock!
Thanks for posting the correction...I've corrected it in the listing!
Sincerely,
Scott
LOL!

Just thought I'd pass along a heads up...
If you order from AlleRC please be sure to carefully check the shipping confirmation E-mail they send. I had ordered OWB gears from them after they were listed in stock on their site. I went to open the box earlier tonight to start repairs on my Gaui, but found the OWB's had not shipped. I checked the shipping confirmation E-mail and discovered that I missed the Quantity Shipped section. So, I have no OWB. I am assuming they are on backorder and will be shipped when they receive the items, however there is no idication of that iin their E-mail. I wrote to confirm their backorder status.
I have since ordered OWB's from both Flying-Hobby and RCDumbThumbs. My bad, but the items shouldn't have been listed in stock in the first place.
Scott

I just looked in my parts box... turns out I had both a 20 and 19 tooth OWB in there.... God, I'm a space case...

Hey Scott, you might want to update your original list as ReadyHeli no longer carries the Gaui line. Also, HeliDirect dropped the 550 support, but does carry X5 parts. GrandRC has also dropped the Hurri 550 support, with the exception of the parts currently in stock. They are not re-stocking any 550 parts. On a positive note, you can add this supplier. www.heliflightcenter.com/default.aspThey are in New York. I have not done any business with them so can't comment on their service, but they seem to carry a wide range of Gaui parts. Also, as you know, Ka-Planes went out of business. |

HeliflightCenter was at IRCHA, but I couldn't find them. Other than that, the post has been updated.
Thanks for the reminder, Jerry!

That's weird they'd just disappear. Their site is up... odd.
