I had one order take 3/4 week just put another in should be this week

In the last year hobbyking has gone down the toilet. Stock levels suck, customer service is a joke. Its a shame as a couple of years back they were really on their game.

(not just saying this to cause an argument) but weirdly lately HobbyKing have been really good to me, great customer service, very good live chat (apart from one ignorant PS) and they sorted a warranty claim out for me within the hour.

perhaps you should swear less then. Its not difficult

I'm not swearing. If I was using the f word or the c one then I could understand it. But I'm not.

Just delete the whole status Bez. Knocking out single posts just makes it difficult to follow.

Less like an add now I hope heh

Yeah no point in a warning fella been there done that

I'm going to try and sell the trophy buggy on FB locally first at least then I can get rid of the fuel etc with it.

heh

that's the super 5SC chassis, complete with carp electrics, and savage bumpers on it. Buy a roller and spend shed loads on a proper can and esc to haul it along, or, save your dosh for something worthwhile

Like what Noj? I want a 8th MT for bashing... something that isnt too soft. I'm thinking Savage Flux but would at one point want to XL it...

Its doing great at that price I think you'd get one for 350 easy with hobbywing elecs I think the mamba is overated well the esc atleast. It'd be cool to see a hobbywing vs mamba vid.

Carpet does not match the sofa?

Obvious problem...it's a Traxxas?

Anyone got a ripmax 1s hex charger for sale? then I can cancel this order lol

Finally spoke to someone.... like getting blood from a stone.

my experience with them really was ok! guess they are quite variable. only used them the once.

bought a set of wheels from them with no issues.

I wasn't sure at first, but phoned and spoke to a real person...!

Yeah I'd done a bit of a search online and couldnt find anything really flagging them up. Just wanted another opinion Thanks

arse, thanks for the heads up tho.

I have one 1S 5.6mah Nanotech left from my Supastox if you're in need of one fast?

Thanks mate but they're for a quad, so 600mah is the biggest that'll fit

Mta4 g3 had very good hype around its durability. Other than that ther all pretty solid with + and -

Losi lst range

Thundee tiger mta 4 g3

Would be the ones I think most highly of but traxxas and hpi could be let down by their popularity 10 savage owners to 1 mta 4g3 owner mayb.

I'm sure there was a relitivly unknown brand that one guy pretty much drove off a quary side and had no issues after like a 40 foot drop... maybe I'm imagining it.

It is rather good, IMHO

Yeah I'm sure that in general they give great service, they have for me in the past. I just think it's very wrong to be told that your order has been shipped 2 weeks before they actually ship it...

do you have an odd address? odd that you having problems with 2 different companies, unless there a general problem with airmail at the time you places the order causing them to end up at the bottom of the pile? the issue with dispatch date for HK have they sent out a replacment for you hence the date diference??

Not really mate, my BG order was split into two, the other half (with no RC in it) came early / mid last week.

If that is the case with HK I wish they'd have just told me that heh

Tracking? From HK? They don't understand the concept IME.

*IMO

tracking lol they said i could track my overseas parcel. but when i tried it said NO

I'll try that again later I think.. pretty much every link is taking me to a page not found screen... I only want to order (or ponder ordering) a new quad!

Yep its playing up for me as well

Ideal thanks Jony

anyone knows that you should change passwords on a regular basis!!

Everyone knows that no one changes their passwords regularly.

yep.

Pacific Rim was terrible heh, it could have been amazing but failed heh

I'm seeing it on Sunday - I love the old Godzila films... a giant monster battling other giant monsters whilst smashing up a city - what's not to love about that!

Pacific rim was utter cack, could've been so much better... robot jox was better lol

i always thought in pacific rim if they just used the sword straight off they would have so much less trouble ha

Probably realised they were B Grade so pre-slotted them for you to save your dremel?

lol that might be why they sent 20 not the 10 I ordered too

Meeow! Lol

Is it a new engine mate? Don't forget to run it in if it is!

Nope not a new engine mate, just new to me. Will be doing a re run-in on my fuel tho.

So just pay for one....send her off on holiday and you stay at home to take advantage of the peace with your toys!

Worked for me - although we've still had family holidays, I have previously sent my wife to New York and Italy. Must admit, though, that I still had to pay for two, so she could take her friend, who is not very well off, but still money well spent!

Best lay off the beans teatime then....

Wind generated by me is fine! I'm not good enough to fly the quad behind my back yet.... heh

yeah that was the only thing I could think of... would you only do the front tho? heh

depends on the oval racing you are doing, if doing sprint cars you would want the rear to be able to slide out but have full control using the front

ahh ok, and there was me thinking someone had just put their buggy back together wrong..
