I just received a Aeromarine Snack attack 44" Avenger Pro, bought it off ebay just built by FDM, has the 5670 4y 1000kv motor and 300amp flier esc...
I bought several boats from Chris at Fine Design when I first started in the hobby years ago... and boat building he has always been good at... there is no reason we can't all agree on that as far as I'm concerned...
I also had an issue with the Flier ESC on the second run... popped on my error... I called Chris at Fine Design and his brother Dan picked up on the Second Ring... he was super polite, and friendly guy... he passed the phone off to Chris after I had a question he said Chris would be better to help with... Chris was very reasonable on the phone, and he asked if I still had the esc to send it in... and he would do what he could to get it warrantied. I didn't even buy the boat from him... though it was never in the water before my hands I can say he was happy to help answer my questions.. and heck if he gets my esc warrantied I will be one happy camper.
I will say maybe they're going to turn a new leaf... they can definitely build a boat, I forgot how much I love the subhatches on the aeromarine cats... boy do thy run dry!!! I'm very Happy with the build quality of the FDM Avenger for sure... it handles on literal rails... and its not bad to look at either... quality boat... and we can't take that away from FDM...
I know many have had problems... but just stating my good experience with them just recently... If you've never seen the FDM homefront its a awful nice toy store that much is for sure...
