LRP is something you should consider if NOVAK or TEKIN is not what you want, from what I heard, AE does not actually do the repair for the LRP, they have to send the LRP products back to Europe....and I heard the turn around time is 6 - 8 (not days, or weeks...) MONTHS....
It is not the HK online shop problem for sure, it is simply the LRP issue....even you are getting the ESC from Tower, you will ended up the same story from them....
