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 a competitive racing kit with a direct-drive 2WD setup and adjustable suspension, so it's best suited to intermediate drivers or those with some RC experience. The relatively simple chassis configuration helps, but beginners may find the tuning and setup more demanding than an entry-level car.
The Yokomo Rookie Speed GT1 requires a short size Li-po battery only—this is not included in the kit, so you'll need to purchase one separately along with a compatible charger.
The kit includes the GT car body, all-round radial pattern rubber semi-slick tyres, and the chassis with front kingpin and coil spring suspension. You will need to source a short size Li-po battery, charger, and radio system separately.
The Yokomo measures 408mm long, 180mm wide, and 95mm high, making it a compact touring car suitable for indoor tracks and clubs. Yokomo runs race events in various locations, so you can find local events to compete in once your car is built and tuned.
The direct-drive 2WD system delivers sharp throttle response and nimble cornering, whilst the semi-slick tyres provide competitive grip. You can fine-tune driving characteristics by adjusting the front suspension settings and choosing between two wheelbase options (234mm or 239mm).
