Anybody got a good lead on a decent RC car shop as I am specifically looking for a in car charger for 7.2v batteries that plugs into a cigarette lighter, or where I can get a 12 DC stepdown transformer.

Thanks

Jason

I am sure there is a large RC shop in Diera along the road coming into Diera from the Airport

Otherwise, Dragon Mart will be your best bet - where feck knows, but somewhere in there.

Maplin are no good for 7.2v supply unless I want to build a step down requlator from scratch.

There is a R/C car shop in Nadd Al Hammar, next to Maccy D's and opposite Yellow Hat, the chap who runs it is very helpful.
