Title says it all, or are they no longer going to be carried?

The sale says if an item is out of stock, it won't be restocked again. The ARF is still available, not the RTF or the Airframe though :(

I still have one on backorder and have been led to believe they should be in any day now...

If they restock them, I'm in for a AMX as well!

No..they still have July 7th listed, updated from June 6th.....I ordered the airframe before they posted the sale, and hoping that they'll still carry the just the air frame.

We're cool ScYcs....like me, you're hoping they get instock soon. I wrecked my J-Power Mini F4 and looking to transplant the guts to the AMX. The F4's not a good first EDF the way you have to launch it with an under hand toss. The AMX should be a much better plane the get the basics of EDF's down, everythings "hanging" off the wing, not "sitting" on top.

Careful bump up to the top for this thread because......nothing is happening. It said ETA 7/29/2009. Well that date came and went and it still says that ETA and it's STILL out of stock though. Same with the other J-power airframes. Would be a shame if we couldn't get more of those.

I made a call the other day, and was told they would be instock by August 5....time'll tell. If the delays keep up, I'll cancel the order and eat the extra cash for shipping and buy from RC-Castle.

They came in today! I just went out to help unload all the pallets. There is a lot of kits there. We'll get them entered in the system and they will be available later today.
Thanks,

Boy, If I had seen this thread, I would have not ordered the AMX ARF a couple of weeks ago. It came no problem, but I only want to own something where the air frame is easily replaced.
Seems like some guys on here really had to put up with a lot of crap, waiting for the air frames.
This doesn't make Hobby Lobby look very good.

It still says 7/29 ETA and i also have not gotten a shipment notification...i hope the airframes really were in the shipment as my order confirmation says "backordered" still.
Please update before i cancel the order?!

They are here. Our guys have been working hard to get them counted and entered into the system. The are in stock on our system right now. The website hasn't updated yet. They should be shipping out a lot of those back orders. In fact, I just went out on the shipping line and saw some getting ready to go out. Pic included.
