got a txt message this morning from hobby king
qoute "hobbyking will soon have an Aussie warranty centre! orders made now are covered.take advantage of the still strong aussie dollar before it drops!"

mite not be long before its setup,my own sources told me acouple months back it will be a ware house in Brisbane

[crabstick]

mean, hopefully quick shipping of lipos over the ditch to NZ too

I heard that this new warehouse will be in Sydney, but anywhere in oz except WA would be good.

[ozzie-crawl]

yea logical choice would be sydney,but was told that a guy i know is going to own/run the ware house but i cant confirm that 100%
but yea anywere on the esat would be good

will be interesting to see the price difference

[Ub Hauled]

if its the same as the US warehouse, the prices will be slightly higher, but lower shipping rate... it'll be just enough higher that you will still choose local over international... don't forget, no customs to go through!
regardless, prices will be low.

i wish i was that optimistic,what you guys pay $5 for we get slugged $25
seen a shop here selling turnigy 2s 5000mah packs $90
for some reason that 12% dollar difference equates to a 300-500% price increase

2011 Hobby King Namba Nats

[ozzie-crawl]

looking that way

[sjslhill]

Should be classes just for Hobby King boats soon.......and the new Hobby King power package is coming for all LSH and LSO classes, all others are banned.

[ozzie-crawl]

sounds like a top idea, $60 complete race boats

If HobbyKing starts giving out some free parts to a few "special" racers, don't laugh, it would happen.
