To be perfectly honest I can't remember between 2 and 3 weeks is normal for China unless they get held up in customs.
I ordered 4 more on the 18th of June I will try and remember to post when they arrive.

That's simply incredible Peter, fantastic work! I know I'm not much of an ant guy, but between your board creations/modifications and Josh's intricate Shapeways constructions, the development and technical standard of antweights has greatly increased over the past few months :)

Nice work Pete. I got one of those 4ch receivers the other day too, I can't believe how small it is!

Haha, you just wait til you see the rest of ours, Jamie! :P

I love those little receivers too. All of my ants have been happily underweight since purchasing them.

Kickboxer I am afraid GiantCod stopped doing the 6 channel receiver my controller was based on and the replacement 7 channel receiver is different in size and form so I can't produce those ones any more.

It depends what you mean by like that one I dont do a module that is compatible with the GiantCod so if you want to use one of those the only option is a D board with lots of flying leads.
By far the best option is the module that goes with the HobbyKing 4Chan receiver see: http://robotwars101.org/forum/viewtopic ... &start=165 5th entry down.
This is compatible with all DSM2 transmitters and if you don't have one you can get one hear for £12.99: http://robotwars101.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1699
