Wow, these look great. They have a Spektrum DX6i, pnumatic landing gear, speedbrakes and flaps, just amazing. The website is bananahobby.com, and under electric fighter jets.

Anyone?

These do look sweet, however I have heard too many bad things about Banana Hobby. If someone like Hobby-Lobby, etc. sold these, I would buy both of them!

Those aren't spektrum dx6i radio's included with the planes. From the web site:

That is not all, this Ultimate B-2 even operates on Full State-Of-The-Art Specktrum 2.4GHz Transmission System and included a Li-Po battery balance charger for charging 4S batteries!!!





matoran629 -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (6/30/2009 3:00 AM)

Yeah, but if you look at the cockpit pic, you see the AR6200 remote receiver and the spektrum logo on it. Anyway, loads of people spell Spektrum wrong.

Those pictures are of Pete's test model using his own radio and receiver. Look at the drop-down options where you can select to get it without the radio and receiver, it subtracts $25. It will come with a very cheap $25 2.4 radio system. I do really like the looks of this model, but when I read the description and saw them use the term "Specktrum" I immediately thought that it was misleading. Intentionally misleading? you be the judge of that.




gary41 -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (6/30/2009 7:16 PM)

My vote would be Intentionally to mislead...but who knows! Only Pete does. The entry level full range Spektrum 5 with it's $90 some dollar retail would cost the plane manufacturer about $50 to include it! No way this plane comes with a SPEKTRUM 2.4 system.




matoran629 -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (6/30/2009 10:31 PM)

Ok guys. I'll email Pete and ask him.




matoran629 -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (6/30/2009 10:32 PM)

Just sent email.




gr8taz nitro -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (7/2/2009 3:21 PM)

so have you heard back yet?




matoran629 -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (7/2/2009 8:05 PM)

no, he hasn't emailed me back yet.




LynnR -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (7/18/2009 3:45 AM)

YOu really have to watch Chinese made items. Yes i think the "Specktrum" is misleading. Another good example is the Gibson Guitar fakes that you have to watch on EBAY.

If it sounds too good to be true...it's too good to be true!!




Albert Din -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (10/6/2009 12:45 AM)

guys, if you want a F-14. Go to Banana Hobbies, they have a beautiful F-14 just placed on there site for sale. [Complete with X-miter, receiver, battery. ARF.;)]




haasjj -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (10/8/2009 6:58 PM)

Here is one more thing that is suspect about the claim of a Specktrum radio. Why would they offer to sell you 8 batteries for the transmitter when the DX6i only needs 4 and it comes with the batteries on Horizon's site.

It's funny that the jets this website sells look just like the jets Bananahobby sells. What makes them so much better to buy from this site?




stoneenforcer -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (2/24/2010 1:41 PM)

Hopefully , this one doesnt choose to learn the hard way and purchase from Banana Peel. You "might" get what you ordered. And by the time you replace all the defective parts you could just have purchased an american made quality controlled product.
I'm speaking from expereince.... and dont like paying for a partially empty box and never getting what I paid for. AND if you need tech support or customer service to help a guy out... you can forget about that too. Your stuck with whatever junk is shipped.




elec1 -> RE: Banana Hobby F-14 and B2 (2/27/2010 3:18 PM)
