Just wanted to know what websites you guys frequent? Which do you use to order parts if need be, etc...


Like Tower Hobbies site, ones like that, that have the whole 9 yards of stuff to order......

Thank you.

Tower and Horizon are the two I use most, but they never carry each others brands.

So I use these guys too - they are excellent:

These are the majority I have bookmarked at work, and I have bought stuff from most of them. I'm sure many more will be added.

I do as much of my shopping at my LHS as I can. However, there are two "online" places that have earned my custom.

http://www.rcignitions.com/ - Ralph Cunningham is THE man for Zenoah engines. Period. His work is exceptional, his knowledge unbeatable, and his service and support second to none.

http://www.nationalbalsa.com/ - If I need balsa, I get it from these guys. Their Contest Grade product is of insanely high quality, they package balsa for shipping VERY well, the prices are very reasonable, and their support and service is also excellent.

gboulton,
I went to rcignition, and all I see is a forum. How do you get to his product/prices page?

Is lone star balsa back in business yet since the fire.

tower of course
but i also like to do as much business as possible at my lhs helping out a little man and putting money back into the local economy.

According to a post in the "Lone Star Fire" thread, there are no plans to reopen.

Just post there, or give Ralph a call.

I have spent 1000s of $$$ at towerhobbies and I have been very happy with them, I will be using them for as long as I have R/Cing interests. Their selections are usually great, great products and no problem with services.
