CRAZY IVAN5 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I'll wait for Sprue Brothers to get it in , might save a bit on shipping as I'm here in the states. Does Jadlam ship to the states ? I tried to order something from them and couldn't get the order through[ might me just me though , I could screw up a rubber ball] Stevepd and chrish 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ray Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Wonder which kit would be best to convert to an A model; that's the one I want. Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewtonK Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Bad news, as the 'A' carried some cool nose art of the croc mouth, but I'm sure there are other options out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ray Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Bad news indeed. My nephew flew A's in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Would like to do his bird. He gave me a couple of CD's full of photos and videos, and a bag of Iraqi sand! LSP_K2 and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Always a chance that Takom or Meng could do an A model in the future. Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just asked my son about back dating a Delta to an Alpha, said it's not impossible but it would take a lot of work to sort out the details. The instrument panels are different for one thing , says it you want an Alpha, best to wait for them to issue one out. I'll take his word for it as he's got the time working on them and knows far more about them than I do. He worked on the Alphas during training most of his time is on Delta's and Echo's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 The kits are now listed on the Hannants Future release page - £99.99 or £89.99 if Pre ordered - seems to be a pretty good price considering the apparent complexity of the kit Apache listings Stevepd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 I’m waiting for Andy’s Hobby HQ to start putting up preorders. They usually get Takom stuff in pretty early. Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis7423 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 That really is a great price for what is a decent sized helicopter. And, as others said, apparently quite an advanced and detailed model! Lots of value there. - Dennis S. Mount Juliet, TN USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 74.99 is the EU/Export price, which I assume doesn’t include VAT. 89.99 is the UK price. Stevepd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevepd Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Even at £90 it’s tremendous value. I think this will do quite well. No mention of the the Brit E version just coming into service here. KiwiZac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the D version was closer to what we use ? I have really little understanding of this subject though but thought I read it in an earlier post ? I've got the D on back order - should it be the E version for a UK version ?? KiwiZac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
