          I am on vacation and this old tired laptop is a bit slow. If what I understand is true about FC I will never buy from there again. I think there should be a boycott as there is more than 1 way to skin a cat (so to speak).

            Thanks for posting the vids Doc. GPS/estimated max speed? It looks like it is no slouch. I love the big size of these hulls. They are very impressive at speed. I am sure you will love yours. I noticed you got it to hop around one corner. Mine does the same when it is close to rolling over but it looks great when it does it.

              Still waiting on parts from HK for my Mini, well really it has a Suzuki Swift body on it. The new one that is coming from HK is a Mini. Hope I have not confused you with all these cars. Don't worry, there will be videos when it takes to the streets Douggie.
              Gliders are not going well. One left the nest and went off flying all by itself and was last seen crashing into the big river near my city. I was testing a new one this morning and the COG is no where near where the manual said it should be. I set it up as per manual and I had to hold a lot of up elevator on to make it fly level. On landing, the nose hit a bit hard and bent the 3 mm motor shaft. Now there will be more parts coming from HK.
              We need to talk Steven into selling cars and planes. I hate searching through the motor list on HK and having to read all the reports in the hope I might be buying a motor with a little quality in it. If I buy Neu I never have to worry about quality. Of all the RC parts I buy Neu would be at the top of the list for quality.
              How is your love life? Better than mine I hope.

                From what I could make out, you and Ben had a good relationship so I guess it was not him. I am grateful that I can go to bed each day/night (work related) and wake up knowing that OSE will still be here. There has been a few times that the Forum has been closed for servicing purposes and apart from my personal withdrawal symptoms I have had other Aussies telephone me and ask if I had problems with connecting too. You have created a monster Mr Vaccaro and I think you deserve a big ol Aussie hug from the guys downunder

                    I know nothing about the FC shamozzle Chuck but I will endeavor to enlighten myself.
                    You seem to have been on these holidays forever. Long service leave or just a good boss?

                        I guess I am old and confused but it seems like more than a month ago I seen you and family on holidays on FB. Now I think I get it. Those were your FB holidays and now you are on your OSE holidays right?

                          Well I am up to speed with the FC fiasco. I have had a look at the warehouse (looks about the size of Douggies outhouse) and seen words like "dick" and a derogatory comment about Steven and OSE.
                          Not going to go down to that level, but I do want to say to Steven that from the viewpoint of an overseas customer, you Sir, are at the top of the pile. You only sell quality and your service is second to none. We all know you have been very tolerant of our sense of humor on this thread. If you have to kick ass you do it in the nicest possible way. Your competitors are often your friends and you do not spit the dummy if we buy from them. You support our hobby with generous donations of prizes at the big competitions and so show us that with you it is not all take and no give.
                          Steven, I respect you as a person and admire you as a businessman. I moved here from RRR some time ago and have never found the need to go anywhere else for good company and information. OSE is a big part of my life and I thank you for that.

                              I tried FC once. Paid over $90 U.S for 5 day shipping and waited 8 days for it to be shipped.
                              Needles to say i will only shop at one place from now on.
                              Sounds like FC just lost a heap of customers by what they have done.
                              Funny thing there is a fair amount of anti ose over there but nothing but good things said about fc here.
