Where to get futaba 12fg in the States!

b0Bro' · 09-20-2007, 12:35 PM

Hey fellas,

Soon i'll be visiting America on my way home to Aus from a 5 month trip in europe. Thing is ive been naughty and saved a little more pounds than i anticipated whilst working here in london.

So was thinking i might cash in on the great UK exchange rate and pick up a new Futaba 12FG on my way through...except having trouble finding a hobby store that have it in stock for a good price. Was sorta hoping i could walk into a hobby store and get one

Ill be visiting the city centres of NewYork, Los Angeles, Vegas and San Fran. Would prefer to get it in san fran so i dont have to carry it to much.

Does any one know hobby shops that might have them for a good price???

I'm in the same dilemma, Moving to Brissy in Nov. I looked for a 12FGA the 2.4 system and they say late December......

I have the 12FG already, but not in 2.4....havent even taken it out of the box yet had it for about 2 months now.

So who has the best price in the USA?

I think Tower Hobbies has about the only price.. somewhere around $1200 if I remember for the 2.4 GHz flavor.
