Ahh good news! Might have mine by Christmas then! I would have gladly taken mine without the user's guide though

Oh and are you sure the motors are ready to ship as well? I've called and left a message and e-mail to sales but have not gotten a response yet.

Saw the ad in my RC Car Action today for the Mamba XL and motor, it looks good in a full page spread :).

Patrick,

Still watching the site for a price to be added to the combo so I can jump on my order, if it's not happening this week and you can say please say and I will try and find a phone during business hours and place an order that way.

You should be able to order by phone... I believe the pricing is set. I don't know if the order people know the pricing yet, but I'll check to make sure they do by tomorrow.

Thanx!

Great to hear, I would love it if you could get it on the site tomorrow since it's amazingly difficult for me to use a phone during business hours and thus far it's been a bad week and I haven't been in a good facility for it. Internet access is quite easy though :)

Only problem is that it takes a long time to get the website updated... we usually have products available for phone sales before the website. . .

Padrino, if you have a Gmail account and a microphone/headset you can use Google Voice to call in to castle with just those two things over the internet. It's free for the first couple calls I think? Or maybe it's just free, I forget. I used it once and it worked fine for me.

But when you say "combo" do you mean ESC + motor only?
Or is it the full combination you mean with combo: ESC + motor + conversion?

And of what material is the conversion made, is that plastic or is that black anodized metal?



thx

Anodized metal

Good suggestion...


Gave it a shot today but no luck, I know why and can't have an exception made. Still watching the site

Patrick,

I sent you a PM about this ESC, can you please reply when you get a chance?

Thank you in advance.

ESC and motor are available now.

Conversion kits are supposed to ship to us on Christmas day. -- We expect to have the conversion kits in stock before new year.

Thanx!

Hey Patrick, I've noticed that the adverts also all feature the same typo. " a first in the RD car market" :-) I think maybe RC car market?

As Vader once said: Impressive.... most impressive.
