Phil, it looks like they are doing both the Green and Blue now.

Thanks Hawleye. I don't like green anyway but did not have a choice earlier. I will email and ask to change item for "blue"

It was by chance, I was looking for the Curare setup PDF.

Still no retracts, but my guess is they will have sourced a set for when it comes in in September.

Hi Phil, It looks like another batch of Jetcraft retracts will be available at some point for your Curare:

I might grab another set for future use. I have cancelled the Curare order. Why?

Looking back to November 2015 I paid including P&P £230.00 or E299. Quite reasonable I thought. They now have them up for E399, that s a jump of nearly £88. Then factor in retracts, RX, servos, motor, etc, this becomes a very expensive model. I did contact them regarding the price hike and it has become not good value but I think we got lost in "machine" translation. They just kept asking for the money up front to hold pre-order. I gave up with that too!

If they drop the price in future I might reconsider.

When you compare some Sebart 50E models these now appear quite cheap for similar fun.
