Originally posted by T-CAT View PostI'm a little worried about the shipping being so close to the holidays. Usually I wouldn't be, but with any model airplane being fragile and being shipped around a very busy time of the year, I'm concerned about the condition it may arrive in. I also get that worry when ordering planes around Black Friday or Cyber Monday.

Don't worry. Depending on where we are shipping this big F-22, chances are we'll send this via UPS. The UPS package security team has implemented explicit details about how to handle planes shipping from Motion RC. The instructions go into detail about the cart system, belts, etc. I've found when the security team implements specific instructions at UPS, the instructions are followed to a "T". We also pack these planes extremely well. Because of these factors, package damage is extremely rare. In fact, the package damage rate for packages shipping from Motion RC is far below the average for all UPS customers. In other words, I rarely see a damaged package. I don't notice any correlation between holidays and package damage so please don't worry. Over the years I can recall two instances where we saw high package damage rates for a week or so and in both instances the security team figured out what changed in the UPS system and quickly implemented a specific program to put a stop to the specific cause of package damage to Motion RC shipments.

Really looking forward to getting this one. Timing couldn't have worked out better. My wife has been wanting an out of production Hangar 9 1/4 scale Tiger Moth for years. Three days ago I found one NIB and got it for her. Being quite pleased, she asked what plane I wanted next.... Que the release of this great looking F-22. Mine was ordered soon after pre-order went live!:):):Cool:. She's a keeper!
Thanks to Alpha and the whole MRC Team for another outstanding offering! One unsung hero that rarely gets a shout out is "Warehouse Manager" that gets our toys from their house to ours. Kudos buddy!
