RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Well, the SuperCub is not a first plane for my Father and I, who fly together, but it's an instant favorite. We've been flying/crashing the hideous HobbyZone Crashbird Freedom, having a blast with a...

RE: *!STORM LAUNCHER!*

Still waiting for mine, ordered from Walmart On 7/30 (and the battery pack on 8/2...). Walmart still says it won't ship either until 10/15. Great vid over at RC Groups.

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Well, I knew it was bigger, but that's great to hear about the power-to-weight/performance! My Dad & I are having a lot of fun with a Super Dec we put a new prop and motor onto. We think the...

MikeParsons,

Thanks for acknowledging that I made a fair point, and for observing that it was beaten like a dead horse. Unfortunatlely, you chose to delete a number of posts where I explained my...

RE: Where Did You Pre-order Your SL From?

You're arguing that the LiPo battery/charger pack is a good product and a great deal. You're claiming the Storm Launcher is a great product. Both of these things may be true, and neither are in...

RE: Where Did You Pre-order Your SL From?

Does Traxxas, or Associated for that matter, market a lot of product in Walmart, Target or Toys R Us? What does the Traxxas RTR cost? Does the Traxxas RTR include a radio? Well, maybe it's not...

RE: Where Did You Pre-order Your SL From?

I'm excited to hear how durable the plane has been and can't wait to get mine. I wonder, if I damage the radio, do I have to buy a whole plane to get another? What if I, being a hobbyist, already...

RE: *!STORM LAUNCHER!*

I probably should. The more people know, the more chance that they know to buy the battery at the same time and don't get a package on their doorstep that won't work.

Heck, YOU probably should....

RE: Where Did You Pre-order Your SL From?

Good point. I just don't think that AirHogs should be lowering themselves to the sleaze-level of used car salesmen that would sell a truck like that. I expect it was unintentional, and that they...

RE: Where Did You Pre-order Your SL From?

They could sell replacement batteries, just like ParkZone, HobbyZone and any other RTF company does, without misleading buyers by failing to include them in the box with the plane. Hey, raise the...

RE: "Air Hogs Tri_fusion!"

This looks like it's going to be a ton of fun to fly!

However, I think that AirHogs goofed, badly, by selling them without the necessary battery and chargers. This means the buyer must spend...

RE: FINALY 12 month wait is over, Spinmaster PRESENTS!!!

Well, I'd seen videos of the ancestor to this thing, and then saw the AirHogs video...that worked great: I clicked and bought it!

However, I overlooked the absence of a battery and charger,...

RE: Where Did You Pre-order Your SL From?

After I discovered the plane/boat doesn't include the battery/charger, like all other Air Hogs do, I just ordered the $30.00 kit from WalMart, where I got the plane. I ordered the plane two days...

RE: Air Hogs Storm Launcher

NOPE!! It's more like $90-110, RTF. They pulled out the battery pack and charger...not included! Might still be great, but the price is very misleading. I wonder how small the asterisk is on the...

RE: ParkZone J-3 Cub RTF

Amen! I've been "converting" every plane I can in G3 to 3-channel, but most have a LOT more power than our Super Decathlon does...the Cub and the Super Dec would be cool to have!!
