T-33 Owners, I must say all these cosmetic mods both 3DP and Scratch-built are outstanding! Bravo Zulu to all. Best, LB

Don't know if people can read German, I can but.....

ETA means "Estimated Time of Arrival"
So Estimate means to guess or calculate the cost, size, value, etc. of something

well it can also be a bit later than end of January....

gruss Hans

For some reason, when I tried to get the orange sample color from my local home depots ( I tried several before I was able to get a sample) their system was unable to process the order. It turned out that none of the Home Depots in our area carry Behr samples in eggshell. Only after several attempts was I able to find someone who could figure out how to get the paint codes in for a satin base. I'll report how well it matches when my T-33 arrives.


Speaking of which, I'm seriously annoyed (pissed off really) at FedEx. All week long, the tracking said delivery on Monday. Including when I checked this afternoon. Tonight, they are now saying Tuesday without any explanation. So annoying to make plans to stay at home to receive a package and not have it arrive as scheduled

The eggshell orange was a poor match indeed.

Instead I tried my usual source for Montana Cans spray paint. They didn't have the exact orange, so I tried both the Pure Orange and Shock Orange colors. Both were a hint darker than the original. No matter, because there isn't that much orange, I just reshot both tanks with the Shock Orange and I'm good to go.

I too shortned the wires for the ESC by 10" and to make it easy to push the pins into the blue connector I warmed it up with my heat gun and pushed the pins in with out using a screwdriver the pins went in very easy. used the cut off end for a charge plug

Hey Hangflieger, wir wohl ein Zollsache sein, Frachter haben normalerweise keine großen verzögerungen, kann sich also nur noch um tage handeln. Und sieh es mal so, wenn unsere flieger später kommen, sind alle druckteile und anbauten schon verfürgbar

and here for our english readers ....

Hey Hangflieger, i think its more of a customs thing, freight ships usually have no big delays, so its probably a matter of days. And try to see it from this side, when our planes come a bit later, all the printed parts and add ons are allready available

[Radar-Guy]

I think that Roland raised a valid question. People who pre-ordered the T-33 from the EU warehouse are interested in getting their model. The ETA on the product Page says late January and that any changes to that will be posted there. Today is the last day of January and there is no update. This forum is run by MRC, thus it would be nice if MRC would inform the European customers about the current status. Somebody should know about it and it would take not much time to do it.

[Icarus the 2nd]

I agree with Roland and Radar-guy. The motionrc webpage says any ETA changes will be posted on that same page, still we don't have any new info.

Btw, the same question was raised by user JoeCool already 2 pages ago on january 28

[Radar-Guy]

EU T-33 customers, great news! Just got my shipping notice!
