Hi everyone,
I'm newbie. I would like to buy a Blade CP to start, after a year of researching
I plan to buy it from hobbyzone.com.
Is this a good vendor ? Anybody has experience with this vendor ?
I did research and found no complaint but no compliment for this vendor either !?
Thank you very much for your help !

I'm not too sure about HobbyZone. I bought my Blade from Galaxy Hobby and as of now, I get all my parts from Horizon Hobby. Right now I would continue to order from either place. Both of these vendors are awesome to work with, and are quick to ship. I hope that this helps.

Good Luck and Good Flying!!

Hi helorookie,
Many thanks for quick reply.
Hobbyzone.com offers free trainning gear and free shipping. At the moment they offer 15% off parts too. That would save some money. Besides, I send emails to them to ask some questions and they replied quite quickly, while horizonhobby.com seems not yet received my emails
I also called them and they're there to response.
Strange thing is I can not find out their business name. Just the web address (and very similar to Hobby Zone, which is a horizonhobby.com's company). And seems not many people are talking about them.
Anyway, if I feel not confident to order from them, then I guess I should go to horizonhobby.com with higher pays for sure...

mikaelx,

I ordered my bladecp from hobbyzone.com back when everyone else was waiting on stock. I gave them a call to verify that they had them and had no problems getting my questions answered quick. The guy on the other side of the line also asked me if I had any heli rc experience because he felt the bladecp could be a "handfull" otherwise. So far I've placed 3 orders with them and haven't had any bad suprises. On all 3 orders the turnaround for shipment was the next day. I can't comment on their service with returns or follow-up support because I haven't needed it. Hope this helps.
