Its not champ, it would have been there this morning if it didn't get put into customs.

The thing is that Japan comes through Coventry which is the UK Customs international HUB Post from HK comes through London and maybe its because of the good old days of the commonwealth but they dont really seem to be as thorough on customs.

Also the Japanese are honest, and wont mark (gift) on the package etc

Mines the same as yours, arrived yesterday (6.30) passed to customs and at 10am this morning was dispatched to the local post office.. So I will either get a letter tomorrow with the customs cost or a nice parcel..

18:35 Awaiting presentation to customs commissioner COVENTRY PARCELFORCE UNITED KINGDOM

If you ask Champ, they will 'twiddle' the invoice, where as RCMart and Stella do it as norm.... Still pisses me off, it is only 100 miles away

I have designed a carbon battery strap for the TRF201. It also allows you to add approx 120 grams of weight.

Will do final design this week and hopefully be able to post pics by the end of this week (if you are interested).

why dont you just make it out of brass?

seems pointless making out of carbon fibre, and put weight on top.
