check to see the site is selected for the UK - LHS near the top, to select GBP LHS near bottom.
Check they are in stock or Backorder.

Managed to get my self a charger off ebay like. I went for the B6 charger that was mentioned. Found it on hobby king £39.99 so looked on ebay and managed to get the same item (with power suppy) for £29.98 :) Excellent! Thanks for the help with it guys n girls the advice was much appreciated.

I received it and turns out it charges my radio control too! three in one even better :).

Next purchase will be li-po batteries and a speedo and motor combo ...

Can I just ask (probably a dum question) but i currently run an old brushed motor and im wanting to upgrade to a brushless motor. the current motor has a 22T gear pinion attached, so what would be best to use in a brushless motor format? or would this not matter?

Thanks
