Hobby King Logon and annoying habit !
a) it never remembers so you can logon automatically like here at Wattflyer for example. b) During a session it repeatedly needs to be re-logged in ... c) Even when upper section shows me logged in - review or discussion session says I'm not ... you log in and text box doesn't work ! It doesn't even seem to be specific - it just happens whenever it feels like it ! and that's OFTEN !! It's b********** annoying !! Nigel |

Do not Judge, or you too will be Judged. For in the same way you Judge others, you will be Judged, and with the same measure you use, it will be measured to You.

They were hacked big time. I suspect they have major maintenance and updates just as Chellie says.

They got hacked by someone in the Middle East. Since there are plenty of other very good discount hobby vendors it's not even an issue. Low Price RC, Leaders Hobby, and RC Castle come to mind as very reliable Chinese hobby stores with great selection and great customer service.
I guess for me it really wouldn't matter if Hobby king got hacked for good since I don't buy anything from them anymore. |

I've given up on hobbyking overall. I can't get the super buggy website to load on my smart phone reliably, I can't load links from web searches on hobby kings website, and I absolutely despise not being able to see what shipping is without logging in.
