    I want to review the Mtroniks Brushless ESC... however, I can't. Because I still don't have it.

    I ordered both mine from here with no problems, about two weeks to my door but you have two weeks in anyway....

    Interesting.. you are running brushless on your Tirpitz?

    Which one are you using, not the flight ones obviously... The Truck one? How does the reverse delay work for you?

    My bad, I am running brushed 970 with a viper marine 40. I just changed the page to put you closer to brushless. I am following it closely and I'm interested to see how the brushless works out. The store is the same and I have had good luck with them in the past. I figured if you couldn't find Mtroniks in the US, you might want to order from them.

    Last night, my Mtroniks Brushless ESC finally showed up @ my door step. It seems ok from the travel; but was poorly repacked by loyalhanna. It was opened (the package staplese were gone; thrown in to the bottom of a box and bubble wrap put on top. Consequently, it fell out of its protective package from mtroniks and rattling around unprotected on the bottom of the box.

    I did little more than take it out of its package last night... so I have nothing else to report about it; yet.

    I can definitely sympathize with you on Loyalhanna. I ordered a set of plans at the end of September, and they're still not here. I wish I could say I'd never shop there ever again, and I would certainly try, but some of the stuff they have (or can get) just can't be found anywhere else unfortunately.

    Plus.. don't order their 144th scale combat plans.. they are Geoff plans.. you can get them from Geoff cheaper and quicker.. I found that out the hard way.. I have two sets of Geoff USS Omaha and HMS Collosus plans..

    Yeah I found that out too when I ordered the Fiji/Swiftsure plans. I guess they must order from Geoff, then reship it out. Figures.

    Same here, My Wisconsin plans are ' JC White' and the Kirov and Indy CVL are 'BDE', they are all really nice plans though (way way better then my Goff Cleveland plans).
