- you must open a dispute within 180 days of the date you made the payment. so what if they tell you your plane lead-time is more than that, and they want payment up-front. -Paypal protection program don't include "aircraft" . Now I will agree that is meant for full scale aircraft, but you never know. -You must have paid with FEJ as a "merchant". Don't use "family/friends" to avoid fees because you will lose any protection. - Paypal protection is for claims that meet the "Significantly Not as Described". So if they send you a crappy product, but the paint looks good or is otherwise hard to argue that the construction is crappy you may not be protected. Paypal policy indicates that if the item was properly described but did not meet your expectations, you will NOT be successful in your claim. Why bother with FEJ...? 6 months and the last part is what I depend on via PP ...also ....Do NOT pay F&F on anything this expensive, from any vendor... PayPal is quick fast to get the issue resolved has been my experience enough to make me feel safe bout buyin whatever. If the construction is not going to work or it'll make the model unflyable then that falls under SNAD... " I just don't like it " ... wont... Always best to do homework no matter what model is bought |

The prices, take their new version 1/6 scale F-18, they have cloned SMs gear and pretty much the entire jet. No idea whats in side but now it looks just like SMs, but you can get one with everything for 3800ish while SM it will cost almost 10k. I deff dont think any of the models SM sales is worth what they charge but when you have the market you can charge what you like. That being said people will flock to them at their current prices which is why they are doing it. I hope they have changed and fixed the issues, I said the same thing back when I was dealing with all the drama the more choices we have the better the prices are over all. I will just sit back and watch for awhile this go round, let the product do the talking. Okay I promise last thing I will say, im staying out of the rest :cool: got a new trailer today to haul jets so im super excited for the upcoming flying season!!!

Does that included the landing gear as well? Am I reading that correctly?

Is this not how it all started last time around? In the past when FEJ models began to have problems many people said they weren't aware of the issues (even though some of the horror stories were already being spread); surely there's no excuse this time?
Has anyone had any indication that they have corrected their customer service issues? Even if the models were being sold for $10 I won't be buying until they have a proven track record and it seems, at the moment, they are still an unknown quantity. Good luck to those taking the chance. |

Ive owned pbly 12 F-16s, to me they are like trainer 60s, including FEJ. Nothing to them. Can't speak for any others except their F-35 which I also have and so far so good. |

Nice! Well I'm looking forward to your build if you do one! |
Everyone will see, Companies make mistakes, Auto companies, food companies, etc... Give FEJ a chance, the different will be relevant.
see my F-18 F Super Hornet in action. See for your self. A big change is coming and they will make it back, stop the drama guys and just be open minded for a change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7ZROhu6ASo |

Pretty gutsy to be flying (any brand jet) over or anywhere near the Thunderbird F-16's. Don't think I would have done that.

I'm all for giving companies another chance, even FEJ. However, successful companies take care of their customers when they make mistakes. If you want FEJ to be given another chance, it's equally fair to ask FEJ to make things right with its former customers.

It wasn't over them, it looked like that from the angle of the camera, I'm not that ballsy or dumb ;)
My Fly Eagle F-18 F is one of the best flying Fighters I have ever flown / owned. Its about 4 years old now with about 350 flights on it. No issues.. |

Really good scale flying. Love it seperate from this, what seems to be a real concern is that FEj again only responds to questions they want to answer, they still ignore any question they don't like !! does that sound like improvement ? Not to me, just like before, they respond when all is well, they ignore any and all problems. Second chance ? Same sh$$, think about it. |

Does anybody know or maybe better yet, can FEJ make a company statement regarding the correction(s) they made to improve their quality, like materials used past / present along with the construction process?

Seems like they are always rushing that turn at the end of the runway. :D |
