Hi Jim,

GWBLM005 4600kv inrunner + EPS-A gear (3.75:1) + prop. EP9050 +ESC25A + 3S 10C 2200mah Lipoly pack. This setup drew 17 amps and output more than 189 Watts on bench test.

Sweet!

So, if GWS is going to start including water slide decals in their kits, what am I to do with these 400 sheets (200 clear / 200 white) of waterslide decal paper?

No -- it's a GREAT problem to have!

You and I have the exact same taste, that was exactly what I was thinking.

Mr. Lin and Ray...please start working on some models that I don't want...this is yet another model that I just have to have. My "to build" pile is starting to look like a warehouse. I am having to put all my models on spreadsheets to keep track of inventory. So, please start putting out models like a flying lizard, flying pizza ver. II or the like...but only after the B-17 and B-25. Thank you!

Hear hear to the AMERICAN bombers.

Any update on shipping cost? I assume it will be pretty much the same as the last 3.

And by the way GWS, us earlybird customers and loyal GWS supporters would still like to see a little bit of a price break on the EB kits. Charging us full MSRP straight from the factory seems a little unfair. Just my humble opinion.

Hi Pat,

I'm sure that my boss would like to read your post carefully.

crxmanpat · Mar 30, 2007, 01:36 AM

Chen,

That would be great. Several of us have expressed this concern ever since the GWS-38 was released. Since we had long been anticipating that model, we were happy to pay full retail plus EMS shipping fees. But ever since, GWS must have noticed a decline in EB orders due to the full MSRP charge.

Red 61 · Mar 30, 2007, 08:31 AM

In my humble opinion, the problem is not the MSRP charge -- it is the EXHORBITANT shipping fees that GWS charges it's customers.

These high shipping fees are a problem FAR BEYOND the Early Bird orders -- several years ago, I ordered a Slow Stick from GWS USA, and the shipping (from California to Oklahoma) nearly cost me more than the airplane did!

Recently, I shipped a Scorpio Hellcat from Oklahoma to Florida -- it cost me less than $3 for UPS ground shipping!
