  • No unfortunatley Hobby King is stealing my money it has been months and they keep making up excuses like there was an inventory error. I have contacted them several times and i ordered back in november. Over 300 $ gone. This is the problem with buying from different countries they can steal youre money and get away with it because our gov has no juristiction. Please someone help me i will not let that money go down the drain. What do I do? 

  • lots of comments.. how many have actually flown it?

    Mine should be here in three days. I will abuse it without expensive things in it.  then say something about it.

    Andrew yo said you were also trying to make one, any luck so far?

    The final version will be made in White EPO foam. The black one is a test made in cheap EPS foam.

  • Black looks cool, but white gives more options. It's much easier to paint a white object black than the other way round.

    So I'd suggest to do a white EPO version first, and once the economics permit, to consider a black version.

    If you live in a hot clime, like me at the minute you would vote white to keep your electronics and the machine cooler when flying.

    Also they are easier to spot when you loose them.
  • Black!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
