my dear friend,

pls.... i beg you.... if you do not know, pls ask....

the package tat you found @ on-line and hobby heaven is de same... they're either giving you 2143 or 2144 (high speed / high torque)..... which is one de best in town tat you may find.....

o/seas pricing are roughly de same.... de differences are not great or life threatening larr.....

oh christ

Ok, just by casually going to an online shop based in HK (shopping.rcmodel.com.hk) would get you USD 210 for the Mars R and USD 90 for one KO PDS 2143 servo which is the top of the line servo. So the whole bundle including two servos should give you USD 390 which is roughly the equivalent of RM 1482. Yes, with shipping and tax, you are somewhere close to the price of Hobby Haven or slightly more expensive but I believe the servos bundled locally are the cheap ones.

Besides, I don't think that particular website has the best prices though but you get the idea.

Well, looks like the war in Iraq has started to affect RC users here too...I've been scouring around asking engine prices at LHS and generally, prices have gone up e.g Nova 5S used to be rm680, now rm780 ! I won't be surprised if prices of other RC items go up too...esp. those coming from US.

Nova is from Italy, but that's not the point. Everything coming from overseas will cost more because of the higher freight charges by air/sea. I believe most LHS here get stuff either from HK or Singapore. They will cost more too. If you're buying anything exclusively american, expect to pay a lot more....
