The record for fastest shipment is 2.5 days from Ireland, I bought my WA500 2nd hand. Getting anything from the states is absolutely ridiculous, it always takes forever. The last time I ordered from Stahl in Germany, took about eight days.
Yeah, the Stahl adt has been working exceptionally well, I just need to get a better radio for it. I'm looking at these Spektrum 2.4mhz, maybe that'll correct some of the glitching issues I am having with some of these FM controlled models.
Definitely looking forward to putting together this JD850 excavator. For those not familiar with this model, it's an approx 100mt sized hoe and here's a couple of build threads from skilled craftsmen who have added alot of details to the model kit by their own hand.
