Ordered flishrc cobra. Communication was great. Ordered larger batteries but they were the wrong size. Olly shipped the right batteries and gave a refund for the difference I paid. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks for the help with the order.

The seller knew I was after one and very kindly informed me when they came back into stock so now have a Flywing Bell 206. Fantastic bit of kit. Well worth the wait.

Frequently Asked Questions
This is designed for intermediate to advanced pilots. Whilst the 80% pre-assembly saves time, you'll still need mechanical knowledge to complete the build and tune the adjustable suspension and differentials effectively.
You'll need a 2-channel radio, ESC, motor, high-torque steering servo, LiPo batteries with XT90 connectors, a battery charger, AA batteries for the transmitter, glue for the tyres, and paint for the unpainted clear body shell.
The Hobao arrives 80% pre-assembled with the chassis, CNC aluminium parts, full ball bearing set, shocks, differentials, suspension components, body shell (unpainted), wheels, and tyres with foam inserts already fitted or included.
At 1/8 scale, it measures 460mm long, 308mm wide, and 180mm tall with a 325mm wheelbase, making it a medium-sized RC buggy suitable for most gardens and outdoor spaces.
You'll need a LiPo battery with a single XT90 plug connector; the maximum dimensions are 137mm wide × 49.5mm deep × 49mm high. Consult the manual or supplier recommendations for voltage and capacity guidance specific to your chosen motor and ESC.
