Where can one buy ball links?

Hi Guys,

Putting together an electric conversion of the GP Super Stearman, I want to use some good quality, slop free ball links for the control surfaces (i.e. not by radio-active, slec, etc).

Does anybody know where one can buy these from in the UK?  Or am I going to have to mail order from the states?  SMC advertise Dubro, but apparently no stock now for some time.

It seems like it's becomming increasingly difficult to buy good quality accessories in the UK.

 Many thanks in advance for any replies.

Firstly whats wrong with the SLEC, Radio Active ones? I have used them for many years on various aeroplanes and not had any problems at all. Still totally tight and slop free everywhere.

However if you MUST have something different to them try any helicopter shop and get the control link packages from Hirobo, Thunder Tiger etc sold for their ranges of helicopters. You might need to do some work with them though as they tend to be specific for the controls of the particular helicopter they are sold for but they are good as if you fly helis you will know you can't aford any slop anywhere.

Also look at the Quick UK heli upgrades. I'm sure that in their range somewhere there were nice blingy replacement ball links.
