Fighter Cat is now open!!!
The front page has the comment " Under new management"
Does that mean that Ben has given it up?

that is a good question Steve.
Didnt even know you were tossed.
Got me on that one.
Not a problem.
Just funny, hundreds of links back to Fc are left on this forum, I add a link back to OSE on the FC forum and get a "Dick" comment then booted.

All of that hacked email stuff is good and well, but i have emailed both email addresses and have a tracking number for something that was never dropped off. Im out $400 right now and very much pissed. They have not even replied to a paypal claim.....just what ahould that tell you. Mike

I hear ya Mike. I would be in the same state of mind. I surely can't say that a hacked email is the case, in fact I doubt it but I feel as though his email has been taken over by the "new management" and they are not responding accordingly. I sent an email to Ben 2 weeks ago with no response.
My main goal has always been to better the hobby (Dont get me wrong, making a living is also part of that). So I don't want to stifle advancements. Fightercat has some cool hulls, if they choose to come back down to Earth, remove the trash and apologize for their mistakes I will continue to allow links to non-competing products.

HUH?
oh, brother.........
Wonder what happens to all the folks and their hundreds of dollars worth of orders each, that have no idea where their money is, or their purchased product, or if they will ever see a dime of it back.................and cant even find out due to no response of their valid email questions.

I guess I'll let you know in a week or so.I purchased motors(4) and an ESC as well as other things that Ben was stockpiling to ship to me.I have not heard whether it was shipped or not in the midst of this fiasco.So I will give it a week to arrive before I make a decision and take alternate measures.
I got shipping info today guys and it should be everything.I also had personal dealings with Ben for a few items.I have also had good communication from Kevin as well in regards to this as of yesterday.
Thanks Scott.
I just emailed them too, not that I expect a response or anything.
One thing is for sure, I'm not spending money with them again, I believe a mass boycott is in order.
Steven, I think Ben was joking around when he said you can be a dick over at OSE, referring to this: http://fightercatracing.com/index.ph...cles&Itemid=58
Steve,
Do not kid yourself this is not a joke.
He can say what he wants. OSE is still running after about 10 years. He couldn't run his business past a few. Running a business takes more than a desire for money. It takes a love of what you do.
I wasnt going to get into this, but since he's tossed some stones at me, here goes.
Please explain to me this, how does he get tossed out of his own business IN HIS OWN BACKYARD?
Here is the infamous "WAREHOUSE" we all here about.

If you ask me, thats a garage. No different than the rest of us home business owners.

Seriously?
Some people need to grow the F up.
Im not even going to put that new FC motor mount into my Osprey. I wouldnt want any association with a company that openly posts crap like that.
Yanno I just read Bens posts about Steve and OSE.
I went from feeling bad about what happened to him to being OK with it.
He has one hell of a chip on his shoulder. If thats the "true" Ben then FighterCat will be much better off without him. Maybe it wasnt the "dipshiit" employee who was the "problem".
