Big Rc Model Store In Manhattan New York City???

Hi to all,

In june I go to New York City / Manhattan for some day and I would want to buy one new JR tx.
I search a great big rc store to New York City (if possible that it is found to Manhattan)where I can find various models of radio JR .

If here I find a friend that he lives to New York City I would be content if it helps me in my search.

regards and thank you for aid.

Hello,
I did a search when you first posted and all the old ones I knew about are gone!

If you want to take a train out of penn station and go out to long island there are a bunch them.

First trip to New York? Where do you live?

Thank you for answer also to rcelectfly ,

dear friends ,
I am a lot disappointed
This is not before time that I go to New York City (I live in Italy ,France,Germany) and a friend had advised me a place that was found in a palace in NYC but it did not have models rc but only trains and the getlteman of the models trains store had advised an other rc store to me, close central Park, and I had gone also in that store...but they only had little and not professional rc models but many rc toys ... not TX JR but only futaba.
I thought that in BIG APPLE (I LOVE NYC)I would have found many stores rc... but...

Thank you dear USA Friends .

Hello,
When are you going to be in the city?
If you can set a few hours aside when your here, I'll drive into the city and pick you up.

I do a ton of work in Times Square. I make those monster signs hanging all over the place, so I'm very familiar with the city.

It's the least I can do for a few modeler and RC Groups member!
Maybe if I'm ever in your neck of the woods you'll return the favor

Don't want you to be disappointed!
Mike

We were on vacation in NYC, so we stopped by Pilotage - Fun & Hobby in Manhattan tonight. Friendly helpful staff with a great selection of e-Flite and Hobbyzone models, etc. lots of motors, batteries, ESCs and other fun stuff - virtually every helicopter and R/C airplane HZ makes are on display so you can touch & feel them (fly some of the helicopters if you're up to it) Definitely stop by if you're in the area.
