Another option is ordering from Roban directly. I had good luck with a 5 blade set for 600 size that was out of stock at MRC and Scaleflying.de and am currently awaiting a 4 blade tail rotor for 5mm shaft I ordered from Roban for the same reason. Email them from their “contact us” button on their website. Usually takes 24 hrs for them to reply.

My 5 blade set was $100, shipping by FedEx was $92, and Roban added $10 for PayPal upcharge fee, so total was about the same as the set from MRC had it been in stock. The 4 blade tail rotor was $110, shipping $42, and $8 PayPal upcharge and ended up costing less than Scaleflying.de had it been in stock. Appears Roban is selling direct wholesale but shipping drives the cost up. I haven’t asked for a kit quote (yet).

Not sure where the hang up is with Motion on the arrival of the container. Other manufacturers I deal with such as Extreme Flight seem to know when their containers will arrive. I do not understand why Motion keeps saying that they do not know when they well receive theirs. I guess we will have to wait and see if and when it arrives. I definitely see your point as to quitting. I hope things get better in all areas of our lives soon. Price increases for everything we use on a daily basis have gone up significantly.
