    Even if they get some, I wonder how fast they'll sell out. Last batch they had apparently went almost instantly.

      Actually the reassessment was whether to get the wings at all. Buying from Motion isn’t a consideration, for precisely the reasons you pointed out. A while back I calculated the cost to my door of getting the F4 Phantom: from Motion I’d be looking at about $1500; from RCC or Ali $1000-$1100. Not Motion’s fault, it’s the shipping & currency rates.
      The wings cleared customs and should be delivered today. That's 4 days from RCC. Brokerage, taxes, fees, etc ................. 15 Canuck bucks. You can just guess what it would have been if it was FedEx or UPS.

      (Well, actually I can give an example.) Not quite on par in terms of declared value, but I bought my Ares from MotionRC not long ago. Brokerage, fees, taxes and taxes on fees came to $114.00. At about the same time frame, I bought the twin 80mm MiG29 from RCC (a much more expensive plane than the Ares). ALL brokerage costs ......... $19.00. Of course, I only had to pay for shipping from RCC once.

        I was just told April will be the next shipment We will have to wait and see.

        • Interesting as one rep said they came in late last week and would be available end of this week or early next and another rep said they just got another shipment when asked about parts for the new P-51… guess we just need to keep hitting refresh.

              The last shipment was received at Motion RC on February 6th and sold out on February 10th. I just spoke with purchasing and it looks like it's expected to take another 3-4 months to get in stock in the US warehouse.

                Considering that I am on the "Notify when in stock" list since last November and heard nothing, that is very annoying.
