Fortunately, I have had no problems like our friend. I have purchased two kits, both off RCU, and paid for one with Money Order and the other with Paypal, both at the sellers request. I did check their record, both appeared to be letigimate. It is a shame that there is a "bad apple" every now and then. One thing I have admired about RC people is their honesty, genuine friendliness. I am new to RC, but the RCU forum is the "cleanest " web site I have ever been on.

I hope and pray you get your money back. If you need a trainer, check with your local club. A member might have one he wants to sell and, if you need it, he might even throw in a little instructor time. Good luck, and keep us posted. We are pulling for you.
