Well that depends.

I'm from Portugal, and there i had to gave up. Customs would caught my order and i had to pay alot for it on taxes, making the price to high.
So i decided i would try to clone it, draw one simillar to that one.

Here in Ireland i dont know how customs works, if i dont have to pay any extra amount for it, or if i do and it's not too much i could really thing in getting one from wowwings.

I've been designing one, despite i stop because in PT we can't find EPP anywhere.
Is it possible to get some EPP in Ireland? or in the UK?

I also had the ideia to contact the person in germany that sold me and sell other EPP models. And try to arranje for a already cut kit of it.

Hi Joe. Just wondering, why do your control rods have bends in them.

Because he's bitter and twisted? :roll:

As well as being bitter and twisted....They stop the servo gears getting broken or the aileron being damaged when they get hit or when you crash( never going to happen of course!). The pushrod bends and adsorbs the impact. Works quite well!
