    Map of RC UK suppliers

    in R/C Retailers / Distributors / Manufacturers

    Posted

    Hi

     

    I started the original map several years ago, and a few major updates to the interface, as a personal tool to locate local model shops when out travelling.

     

    Technology has moved on, fewer people have been using the map (including me!). The last notification on the forum was November 2021, I have therefore decided to call time and stop publication.

     

    best wishes, happy landings

    Howes Models moved out of the centre of Oxford some decades ago to the suburb of Kidlington, however they have moved from the location shown on the map to the industrial area a little further away...

    Hi just a quick update. I have moved Slough Radio Control models into on-line only after reading another item in the Retail area of the forum. Although under current Covid-19 rules I would suggest all RC retailers are "not essential", and are therefore closed!

    Please post any other requests for updates (deletions, changes or additions?).

    regards

    Mike

    Hadn't this been closed down last night? What, is it April 1st already David?

    Edit - ok, just seen the 'other' thread. Thanks mods, your re-opening of this is very much appreciated though maybe David could have edited his post rather than removing it, I'm confused enough by daily life without this adding to itwink 2

    I am even more confused than Bob, as I don't know what was said in "other" thread.

    Hi Allan

    Yes, but only by accident, although I must admit I have not been maintaining as much recently, and yours has been the only post on the forum for over two years.

    Anyway, a few months ago I accidentally deleted (and purged) a file (amongst many others) on my Google drive. Unfortunately it was my website. Google were able to recover but not under it's original address.

    I have just checked and the original "Map" is still available, it was just the web page that failed. Please try new site and let me know.

    Happy landings

    Mike
