1. I get mine from a shop where you also can get tools, electronics, toys etc. donno what you have in England.
2. as Josh said. But hacking a servo isn't that hard really, it is better that you learn how to hack it by yourself. But we shouldnt make Pete C broke by not buying his servos, or should we
3. I looked on ebay for a v-tail mixer, but only from the US. But v-tal mixers dosent cost much now days, so I would be looking at either Sussex model centre (even if they can mess it up sometimes) or any other hobby shop.
4. A good choise is lithium polymere, or as we call it, lipos. But as for a beginner you should stick to Nickel cadium (if spelled correct) or Ni-Hm, as if you would missbehave with lithium, it can explode!
a question from me:
Where can I find Futaba 6exa transmitter, and only the transmitter. I found this shop: http://www.howesmodels.co.uk/, but how do I know its a shop to trust on?
