www.boomshot.co.uk
I was looking at this site a fews days ago and i was wondering if anyone has actually brought anything from this site and could you give your opinion on the site
anything you have to say about the site would be appreciated as i am hopefully going to buy a motor off it and don't want to be disappointed. David<!-- / message --><!-- sig --> |

A pet is for life but a RC plane is for the time it takes to buy it, fly it, crash it and trash it.

Hi david, I had a quick look and compared prices with my prefered supplier and boomshot look a little pricey. I would recomend www.robotbirds.com they have great prices and fair postage costs. I use them over my lhs given the choice because they give good service and advice.hope this helps

I have looked around my regular stores and couldn't find a better deal. Seems like a nice kit, you will have to let us know how she performs. There is a large selection of similar aircraft at
www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk and www.brchobbies.co.uk but then you probably already know that !  Paul. |

David, I couldn't actually find that model on any other webstore, so it was hard to match the price. There seem to be so many Cessna type versions, that one does look extremely good. I will look forward to your build log and future maiden. Another good store for batteries etc. which I forgot to mention is: www.rcmdirect.co.uk Paul. |
