Re: Model Sports, Dave/Brian McFarlane Robbed
How would these low life's off load all this stuff?
The model community in AUS is too small not too notice cheap planes on the market. Alarm systems, truck to move it all. It wasn't a new shipment was it? Something in there that should not be there? that Model sports did not know about! Ruff count 110 products stolen

Re: Model Sports, Dave/Brian McFarlane Robbed
Holy crap - they didn't muck around.... There are some good models there. Will also keep a look out to see if stuff is getting pawned off up here in the NT.
I hope Brian and Dave don't suffer too badly, that said, it is thousands of dollars worth of gear there. I can't believe there are people within the R/C community that would do such a thing. Have heard of 90 size helis going walkabouts at some of the bigger comps down south too.... *********$

Re: Model Sports, Dave/Brian McFarlane Robbed
That is terrible. I will keep an eye out on ebay. It is hard to imagine they could move this stuff very easily without using something like ebay. Bastards!
