I have called and emailed dozens of times with no response and chatted which is a joke, I purchased this jet on 1/8/11 got it in opened the box and found the blades busted from the motor, then after building it I found that the tail rudder is warped, yesterday i decided to turn it on in my home to check out the servoes and gave it a 1/4 power and the motor made a nose but did not turn, I did smell a burning from the motor and esc, I have had all I can take from NP and if they don't make this right by 1/26/11 I will be filing a dispute with my credit card company, I may have gotten a lemon but bottom line is I paid a large sum of money for junk, they could at least replace it if not refund me.

Order yhst-17210252890263-169393

Go to the following link and see what the BBB has on Nitroplanes also know as Nitro Model Planes http://www.trustlink.org/Reviews/Nit...anes-205968257

Here is NP address and number supplied by the BBB

You're wasting your time with the BBB. Read the REST of their report. They are doing NOTHING with N/P. Far as they are concerned things are all just fine.
http://www.la.bbb.org/Business-Repor...anes-100031949



And more folks at N/P to try and reach, and more numbers to try.

# (626) 968-9865


Only way to get their attention is file a dispute with your credit card company.

I think it's my first time ever to post here, but from other forums, the link points to here so:

My order:

yhst-17210252890263-171496

has broken fuse inside a perfectly sound box.

this product:

http://www.nitroplanes.com/78a117-f117-camo-kit.html

I have pictures:

see below

It arrived today w/ tracking :

http://wwwapps.ups.com/WebTracking/p...3V030392156522

I must say that this is first time I have problem/ major issue with Nitroplanes.com, and I've ordered many planes from them in the past year.

I hope they can help me with this.

Thanks.

Order #1122479, specifically the spitfire http://www.nitroplanes.com/93a235-80...e-rtf-24g.html
As you can see from the order, I purchased the RTF version, but did not receive the receiver.

Thanks.

Just started going through my 50cc Suikhoi, 87.5" winspan. I found a 1" x 5" patch in the covering on the bottom of the plane. Over the years I've seen many planes but never seen one with a patch right out of the box. Started to put the landing gear on and could not find the lock washers - oh well. I have my own. Then I discovered the holes in the landing gear are 1/2" of the holes in the plane. So do I have the wrong landing gear or am I supposed to drill new holes. I know the price was cheap but the quality needs to be a bit better. Really- how hard is it to drill the holes in the right spot. I hope they make this right.

I purchased this Nirto Plane from nitroplanes.com:

1 Nitro Gas P-51 U.S. Air Force "Stinky" Mustang 46 - 57/5\Radio Remote Controlled Airplane Almost-Ready-to-Fly

January 17, 2011
Order Number: 1123370
Website: http://www.nitroplanes.com/nigaspuairfo.html
Motor purchased: ASP S46A 2 Stroke Glow Engine with Muffler for Airplane


Problems thus far:
1 - The motor will not fit into the cowling. There is no way to arrange the motor so that the shaft will be in the center of the aitplane. (this is a major problem I believe. We selected a motor from the dropdown list. and I see no way thet it will fit this airplane.)
2 - The retractable landing gear will not fit into the desired location. They do not fit into the balsa wing. Also, we received 2 right wing landing gear housing, instead of 1 right and 1 left.
3 - I did not deceive any of the peices to secure the wheel to the rod (on landing gear) (looks like we need the 2 nuts? and 2 set screws.)
4 - The plastic wrap was put onto the cowling before the paint was dry and the paint is all messed up.
5 - The directions for the fuel hook-up are not clear, and I do not understand how to hook it up to the motor.


Please respond and let me know what to do with these issues. Thanks. Thomas

Hi,

Order number yhst-17210252890263-138012 . Before putting the plane together i checked all electronics. All worked fine, except esc. It would cut of the power to the motor, make weird noises, reset all the time, shut down even at half throtle, it just wasn't working properly. I took the esc from my other samef-16 that i bought from you almost a year ago and problem was fixed. If it's possible could you send me a new esc. It was 25A with heat sink. Thank you.
Hi again. I wrote that message in a forum a while ago and still didn't get a reply. I thought i'll try again. Thanks

When did you order that airplanes are you sure is that order number cause when i check it with that order is was back in 2006.



Timmy

The order was placed on July 19th 2010at 10.00pm. Order number yhst-17210252890263-138012 . My original post was on August 8th 2010. Thanks

Yes I placed the order in July 2010, and my first post concerning the problem was on the 8th of August 2010 couple of weeks later, so within a month time. It took forum support a while to reply and then it was quiet again. It's not my fault. I also tried to call support but there was no way to get through. Even though i didn't get the problem resolved Istill bought two more planes from you guys (November). Istill hope I'll get reimbersed somehow for that bad esc.

Thank you.

Hi , I just got my shipment today but I also got broken plane in tail section.....
Order Number 1154642

Or(order yhst-17210252890263-175068


I sent the following email:
Hello,
I just opened up my Cesna plane but I found the tail section is broken. I have attached the pic with this email. The box from outside looked fine and the foam box wasn'tdamaged. Ibelievethis might have happened during packing. I have attached the pic. Sure I can glue it and fly but Ipaidalmost $200 and I wanted to keep this plane for a long time ,, I am not happy with this plane at all.
Tell me what can I do with it??
I sent the same email to sales and support but the person Ispoketo phone suggested me to send in this email to you as well.
I have not even opened anything from the plastic wraps exceptfuselage. I just had bad experiences with bananahobby but here is not working well as well...I think someone also in the post has similar problem and I am convinced that the shipping(warehouse )people who is doing packaging is making this mistake.
If you replace this brokenfuselagethat would work for me.

I have not heard anything back yet.......

I needed a Cowl for a CMP YAK 140. I looked on your website and there was one listed. So I ordered it and it was shipped right away and when it arrived at my home I opened it was to my suprise it was not a cowl but a canopy. And yes it shows a cowl on the website and no; I do not need a canpoy.
My REF. Number is 1172207 2/22/2011. 844314 Shipping no. is1ZX03V030391275806
What do you want me to do with this canopy? Can you order me a cowl? And let me swap this canopy with you?
No one answes any of your phone no.s and your E-mail add. does not work either. I have been trying to get in touch with you for a week.

John, just received and unpacked CMP Piper J3 Cub 120, order No. 1283001, and all was well until I unwrapped the cowl. It's got a big chip in a very visible spot and hope you can send me a new cowl. Tkx.

Hi, I purchased a 91" J3 Cub from Nitroplanes and when it arrived the windshield was broken. this is the plane-http://www.nitroplanes.com/j3picub120en.html

I contacted cust support immediately and they said that they would try to find a replacement for me. Nice gesture but its been over 6 weeks and I have not heard anything. I do appreciate the effort but does it always take this long to get a replacementpart? BTW i noticed that there are replacement windshields for purchase on the Nitroplanes site, is there a reason they cannot send one of these? -http://www.nitroplanes.com/wiforcmppicu.html

Thanks.

Good luck in getting anything out of these folks. I sent in three unusable parts from a 90" P-38 in 2006...and I never received the parts replacements...thats after dozens of phone calls and e-mails.
