This
is the nice clean opening page of this Australian company's website
which I've visited out of curiosity because they are mentioned on the
air space page as stocking the new TurboJet Technologies TJT 2500 gas
turbine engine featured there.
This page comes up as part of an
opening sequence, and from here you are automatically moved on to the
main News page of the site.
We are, in fact, visiting a shop of the sort
with which most of us are familiar - stacked to (and on!) the ceiling with all
those lovely r/c goodies that we just can't do without, with the happy,
friendly proprietor keen to assist us in parting us from our money - but
we really do love 'em, don't we?! The proprietor in this case is Brian
Simpson and I guess this might be him.
From
the News page, you can move on to further pages on the site, each one
specializing in products relating to a particular aspect of radio
control modelling - Helicopters, Aeroplanes, Cars, Engines, Radio,
Accessories, plus the usual Links and Contact pages.
Each
of the individual subject pages carries a nice selection of stocked items,
with good specifications and well-illustrated, although the large number
of pictures means some pages take some time to download. No prices are
quoted, and you are requested to e-mail to check price and availability
for the items featured or for any other r/c items you may be looking
for. As far as the aircraft and
helicopters are concerned, all the main manufacturers are there - JR,
Robbe, Kyosho, Great Planes, Tru Flite, etc. One less familiar to me (but probably
known to most of you!) was BVM (Bob Violett Models) and I rather liked the
look of their 72" wingspan Bandit, pictured below. A
nice-looking site and an enjoyable browse!
