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.

About this product
Inspired by the classical Italian ‘Piaggio Ape’ 3-wheel vehicles that are based on a Vespa scooter the X-Rider Flamingo is a unique cute bundle of fun that every R/C fan needs to enjoy.
Featuring a hard ABS moulded cab and entertaining cartoon style ‘bobbing head’ driver figure the Flamingo is available in a choice of three vivid colours. A steel roll bar runs around the outer edge of the chassis to help prevent tipping during hard turns even though you will lift rear wheels and drift! Mounted to a thick 6061 aluminium main chassis the 370 brushed motor, gearbox with heady-duty metal gears and 800mAh battery are all neatly housed under the cab and a special immitation engine block with moulded exhaust.
Multi-line rear suspension with shock absorbers, scale looking retro wheels and a spoiler finish off the Flamingo in style. Ready-to-run with radio, 2-in-1 esc, and USB Charger.
Bellissimo!
