You'll be lucky, not sure if they are available at the moment, but a stockest that deals with Helgar should be able to find out for sure.

I tried to get one a couple of months back and was told they stopped making them. There's supposed to be a new one using the helios module but that never materialised at the tokyo hobby show so not sure now.

I ended up having new pots put in the old vantage so hopefully it'll last a couple of year till something new emerges from KO otherwise its the futaba

DMS still have them for sale (about £230 for the 40Mhz type R) think Darren may only have 1/2 left, but they have been out of stock with Helger for some time now DMS's number is 01923 816636.
