[ML-General] Makers Local Build-Your-Own Quadcopter Class!

[Brandon Dewberry]

Now you tell me.
I just ordered from HobbyKing direct (is it in Hong Kong?)
My shipping estimate is 7-14 days.  $35 shipping through Swiss Post (or
something).
Not bad, but I'll be sweating at day 13.
Everything was in stock.  Do you think I should cancel and re-order from
the USA west?
