What's up with Castle Creations' new Berg 7 debut?

[Steve G]

Hi All,

I'm wondering if anyone has new info on the Berg 7 Receiver. From all the good chatter on the web, I've decided to get one so I can stop swapping out my FMA Rx to two different planes. I can't find one in stock anywhere, but - according to a CC employee on another forum - they're due to be released three days ago. CC website says MSRD is $59... they're backordered on many sites for $51 street price. Anybody heard any updates?

I just copied this from the CC site a second ago.

COMING SOON!
Berg by Castle Creations 7-Channel Receiver retail price: $59.95

They don't give a date.

Have patience. These product releases rarely ever go off on schedule... The supplier/manufacturer has you over a barrel and they know it. As a vendor you can't complain or they'll drag their feet even more. You can't go to another supplier because you'll have to start over from square one; it'll be another year before your product hits the shelves. Then, if you're bringing it in from overseas and the supplier IS on time, you've got customs delays, shipping delays...

Ah, logistics, the spice of life
