I'm not sure they're in HK, but you could try heli-fever.com. They have good prices and I've ordered from them before several times. There was one occasion where I didn't receive a cheap heatsink ($1.50) and when I asked about it, I never received a reply email. But I still order from them once in a while.

I buy all of my spair parts from these guys. Shipping prices are good and for acouple of dollars more you get much faster service. If I order on a sunday night or monday morrning, chances are good I'll get my package by friday afternoon...I've never had faster service but I've never ordered a complete heli from them so I can't comment on that.
I buy from hobbyestore when I buy a bird.....Dannoh40 & his fly right boys

buacc,
Sounds you are one of the sales guys at ehirobo, and want to paint a nice picture to everybody out there. Maybe you did not have problems but judging from the rest of the posts I would rather skip them as a supplier.

If you had problems with this supplier the best thing you can do is to report them to the HongKong Police department cyber crime.. at an instant they will be cooperative and answer your email inquiry... That what i did... and they have been cooperative...

Ehirobo is as good, and as bad as the rest. If you kiss ass alittle bit(it does indeed help) you can go along way with these hobby shops.
How many G.D. people do you think they supply world wide? some times I get my stuff in a week and some times it takes three.
Example, My very last order. they had some of the items and not some of the others. when after eight days or so I E'd them and said W.T.H? They were very nice to me inspite of my e-mail.
They explaned that they didn't have some of the parts for my order and were waiting for the befor shipping.(I own a DF 40, could be one reason for no parts) they asked if would be alright if they sent me what they had,(would it be enough to get me in the air?)
well sure, I said ship me what you have,(tail motors) and some other stuff.
Now who knows when/if or what ever if I get the rest of my order, we'll see. but all in all, its like I said, suck it up and kiss alittle a--.they save all your orders and e-corrispondance in there computer sys, so when they get the order the name shows all your history so If they see nice things they work just alittle harder.
Every place has someone/s who can tell you a horror story that happened to them.
Thankfully...E-Bay isn't the only place to buy helis & parts[sm=drowning.gif]

Well got there mail today and they said that they are working out with the singaporean post on what happend to the items that was left with them. It has been 1 month and a half now since I've been waiting for my parts but still there is not a sign of it here... well I dont know if they really sent me the left items or not.. I am just taking there word for it... with all the bad things that i encountered with them they were happy to give me discounts on anything ill get from them.. this is in part of all the problems that i encountered.. they are even slashing $40 off on a DF36 If i wanted it..

I ordered parts from Hobby E Store and after a month was told shipment was "lost in air"-they resubmitted my order and it took another month for me to get parts.When my order finally arrived it was in a crushed box!Fortunately the parts were not damaged but I will not order from them again.Ehirobo delivers but does not respond to problems-when i got a motor and esc from them the items arrived without instructions or specs.I emailed Ehirobo and they said they could not provide this information!Both "stores" are just sites that take orders and don't have any actual stock-they just pass orders on to suppliers in Hong Kong.

Today I got a newsletter email from ehirobo.com. problem is, I have never ordered from the or visited the site, so I have no idea at all where they got my emaill address from. I refuse to business with anyone who buys a list and/or sends me unsolicited mail.

My brother got the same May newsletter and has never visited your site so it looks very much like the "martketing dept" has purchased an email list to both of us.

I've ordered Walkera 4g6s + 2801pro tx + 3 batteries + spare parts from EHIROBO! And I got the package in 5 days, everything was packed well. I am very satisfied not only about products, also with their support. They've tested my heli and set it up - so everything was smooth right from the box!
That's my experience. +1 for Ehirobo

Well, like I've said before. I've NEVER ordered from them , NEVER signed up with them and have no idea where they got my email address. But now that they have it, I can't get rid of 'em. And I make it a point to never buy from a company that spams me, so sending me all this crap isn't going to win my business - it only makes me more angry.
