Did a little search on the Blue Arrow RX and it appears the general opinion is that it glitches in a crowded multi-frequency environment. But, it may be just fine alone or with another R/C system on. Also, one post spoke of problems with the Blue Arrow crystals specifically.

Click on the missing image. The link is here:
http://echo.bluehornet.com/ct/ct.php...26CFB938FCF309
which redirects you to:
http://www.hobby-lobby.com/silver-axi2208.htm

The image itself contains the specific one on sale, as well as the price (I presume)

All,
Note sure why the broken link. The AXI that we are running tomorrow is the PS220834 for $36.80.

Enjoy the sale.

Is it possible that the Scorpio link you provided is an Italian retailer that just happens to have the same name as the Czech manufacturer - the catalogue does provide retail prices and includes "Horizon Hobby", "Spektrum", and other manufacturers items as well as Scorpio planes (I see the Miss 2 listed on pg 38 of the catalogue) ?

I do like the looks of the Miss 2 !

Man, those prices are a lil stiff. The Raven is 125 EU, which is roughly $160 US
Seems pricey to me. The last time I mailed a small box home from Normandy, France, about 14"x14"x8" it cost over $50 USD. So I wonder what shipping a plane here would cost. I'm betting a bunch.

That's the manufacturer. I contacted them a while back about their fan units.
They carry a lot of stuff that isn't their own. I get the feeling they are the "Hobby Lobby" of Italy.

I was under the impression Scorpio planes were made in Italy. I haven't looked at the Scorpio FW-190 since I bought it (shameful blush) but I seem to remember some of the writing bein' in Eye-tal-yan.
