Interesting..
Nice prices.

I'm a bit leery of that site, their phone number is associated with at least 3 other businesses, I did a search and found very mixed results, some claim they'd never do business with them again, others said they had no or minor problems. I got interested in them because of the killer prices they are offering on Leopard motors.
I really don't trust the internet so I always try to check out places before I order unless it's a well known place like OSE or Zippkits etc. who have been around a while with a large customer base.
I'm still up in the air about ordering from them, I'd really like another Leopard 4074 for 60$.

those $60 motors are 2 poles. hobbyparts have them as well for $5 more and free shipping.

Hi guy's hobbypartz is the same place as nitroplanes nitrorcx and xhelli I ordered from hobbyparts like 4 times and they diliver very fast and i never had a problem with them yet... I just want to know if anyone ever used any of the boats and what ones work best if they did?

All stuff you see on E-Bay everyday.

They are very close to my house, bout 15 minutes, in an industrial area predominantly filled with Asian businesses/warehouses. I might call them and see if local pickup is available.

These boats have been around in the UK for a while now, Thats only a small selection of the boats they do. Their made by Dragon, Their have been threads on this forum on some of the boats they do ie Dragon Saga Cat & Red evo hydro. If you go to the Videos & Video Links section its on page 6 about 1/2 way down the page titled Dragon Saga 34" cat on 14.8v 61.5mph. This is basically the same boat as the King of Shaves cat, Also the Red evo is the same hull that Venom use for their new hydro. Both of these Dragon boats are cheaper than the Venom versions. Having said that ive seen some discounts recently on the Venoms.

As with most not if all of these boats that are coming from China i think experience has shown that the best way in my opinion is to gut the boat out & start again by rebonding battery trays, servo brackets & just about any thing that is bonded in rather than have failures when useing the boats. They also need some work on possible upgrades in hardware to save doing it later. Once you address all the areas needed their not bad boats but obviously your spending more time & money to do this but will end up with a much better boat that will last much longer. At the end of the day thair still cheap boats even allowing for upgrades. Venom prices did seem very high compared with other simular boats coming out of China so maybe they have had to reduce all their prices quite a lot on their web site.

We used to sell the Jollymotor Offshore but discontinued it. Too many returns for various reasons. Spend more... get more! But if you buy one of these and need parts, we will be happy to sell them to you. I doubt the other guys carry the parts!

[SweetZ28]

I am liking this model... anyone know how it runs compaired to the other V types on the page from the link posted on top?
Don't know if i like the pink or the black better!
