Stock seems to be out of 501x shock towers in most UK shops - you might get one from overseas by the weekend if you ordered now... maybe...

But also try - http://www.fibre-lyte.co.uk/

Its a standard part now for them, they do all the graphite 501x parts bar the top deck - not sure why they dont do the top decks atm, but there you go.

If you ask nicely, they MAY be able to machine you one out by Saturday morning, they have always helped me out if ive asked them for various projects in a hurry and they can fit it in.

try to pm DaveG28 here on oople............this was what he posted a couple of days ago....

Yeah UK support is very very thin on the ground, and the kit over here is very expensive!!

Spares wise though, RC Champ will get the parts to you inside a week and always did hold a lot of stock too, so it's not too bad for going abroad!

Plus, I carry as many spares as a shop anyway if anyone gets stuck!!
