Default backordered, though at time of purchase.....

you guys said it would ship and was in stock !!! Is there an expected date of re-stock ?? I really feel scammed, I wouldn't have bought the 3 items I did unless they were all in stock. Now one kid gets his jet and the other gets a backorder slip ?? See my predicament ??!!

Please give me some info. yhst-17210252890263-60067

sorry dave about the B/O I'm sure we have another plane that your boy will like as replacement. If the new plane has a little price difference I can waive that. Sorry for the inicovience.

Unfortunately it's the Stealth or something else entirely. Please cancel the backorder and credit my card. I suppose I should not have waited for the "Black Friday" special to order this plane. Live and learn.

Thanks,
Dave

What about the canopy for my zero? I ordered it on the 5th of Sept. The money was taken from my bank card and then they tell me it is back ordered. It's now the 9th of Dec. When can I expect to get it, or am I ever going to get it? My order number is
yhst 172102528990263-52035.

Thank you

I got the same "Backorder" problem when I order the blue angel. I was upset, but they gave me the grey F18 instead, it was a little more $$$ But like Dave said, they waived it for me. Although, now I'm searching hi and lo for a LiPo 4s charger, this was a minor issue.

Have to find a charger tomorrow.

Why is a charger included with the Blue Angel, but not the grey F-18.

Still, nitroplanes was very obliging and I would recommend, and I'll probably buy again, thank you!

Any good LiPo charger capable of handling 4S cells will do.

If you expect to stick with RC, a good computer controlled charger is a must.

e.g. Accucycle, Intellipeak, etc.

They are worth the expense as they will keep you from accidentally ruining your batteries and/or starting a fire!

Re: Fans

EDF Jet's need to be properly "broken in".

Make sure you follow standard EDF check out and break in proceedures, or you may damage the fans, motor and ESC.

Well, there is nothing in the instructions about "break in". I think I heard briefly on another thread about breaking in fans. If this is really a requirement, why doesn't the manufacturer put something in the manual that comes with it.

There must be over 100 warnings and cautions in that manual, something about a "break in" isn't mentioned.

Any pointers. I was planning on flying tomorrow after I find a charger.

Thanks.
