Craig,
Check the ad again. The last time I was in the UK, the price for the
Micro 3BB was around $55 and the MC version ranged from $85-$110 depending
on the store. I think you will find that the quoted price was for the
Micro 3BB version. Most likely it was a misprint in the ad.
Actually looking at the modelspot home page - www.modelspot.com (a
company in the UK selling MPX equipment) shows the following: Micro 3BBs
for 34.00 pounds. The Micro MC/V2 servo sells for 59.00 pounds.
At $56 per for a Micro MC, I might just have to buy some <G>.
