definitely go to aristocraft.com, and check out the battery,R/C forum. There is a lot of info there from users of the new Revolution. I think everyone there with link problems have overcome them. The most common problem seemed to be with battery power - both in the TX and/or the RX. Some had problems with cheaper batteries in the TX. Try Duracell. With the RX, it seemed to be hookup/wiring problems and/or installation. A couple of people just turned the TX off and back on, or simply selected a different cab and then went back to the cab they were using, and it re-linked.

Are you able to re-link right afterwards? There are more than a few reports of losing link.
Aristo often recommends lowering the voltage, but the people who have done this did not solve their problems.

As far as UK availability is concerned I suggest you get in touch with Andrew at Garden Rail Centres, Cheltenham. He has had them a while now and his web site says he has them in stock.

I suggest you post this on the Aristo-Craft Forum, there are many there who have the same TE as you have.
Using the Forum facilities you could also send an e-mail or message to Lewis Polk or someone else at Aristo to get an answer.
I have a new 57000. I installed it in a locomotive using a CRE55610 lithium battery. The receiver and transmitter linked and then I lost all bars on the transmitter. The transmitter will not control the loco. The battery is putting out 25.5 volts (it is a 21.5 volt battery). Is this voltage "blowing out" the receiver? I have called Aristocraft twice but all I get is voicemail and no return call.
