just ordered a PL 8 from https://www.banggood.com. They say they have them in stock, and mine is in transit. Delivery likely to be 7 weeks, 13th of October. :clap :dance

ONLY use SAFE banana 4mm connectors as used on the PL8 cables. Allthe rest are useless and melt and are dangerous (can short...)

Latest from Revolectrix:

"Please see the latest update that we posted on an industry forum recently. This is the reason for the delays. All products are getting built now against a priority list we have provided to the vendor.


I apologize for the continued delay. At the same time we were getting a new contract manufacturer set up in Batam, Indonesia, the pandemic struck which caused many months in delays in securing components and long delays in shipping. We relay the projections of product availability from information that our CM provides to us. Lately those projections have been a moving target because of delays and changes in supply chain. FMA, who is the managing partner for Revolectrix, has been in business for 35 years, 24 of those as a product designer and direct seller to the R/C market. We have never experienced anything, even remotely close, to this type of situation. We are keeping our site updated as we receive new information."
