Default Who ordered 6HV from RC711?

I've been waiting for Nankin hobby to stock the 6HV and I guess Im a little impatient but I have everything but the kit. I look at RC711 and they only have one more in stock but i really wanted to get one here in the states just in case there's a problem. Anyone here order one from RC711 ? and if so was it all good?

I ordered my 6HV from RC711 a year ago. I were first missing the main gear but RC711 "didn't understand" what I meant. Had to take pictures (WTF?) of the missing parts. Had to find the partnumber on Nankin's page and email them but still they were acting like idiots and didn't send me the main gear. I were fed up since i had to buy a new assembly to around 100 bucks. I then sent Luke @ Compass an email and he sent me by DHL from China to Norway and I had it 3 days later.

Next issue I had were the motor shaft loosening from outer body of the motor. Sent RC711 a mail but they didnt even respond. Same procedure, sent Luke a message. 3 days later a new motor were in my mail box.

Superb help from Compass, miserable from RC711.....


But hey, they do are cheap!

What's up sewer fly glad to see your getting a 6hv. Every day I fly mine I love it more and more. If you can wait for mike at nankinhobby to get it in stock I would recommend it. There customer service is great. Mike will take good care of you. I got mine last year at this same time and I was in the same boat, waiting for it to come in stock. Nobody had it in stock so I ordered from Nankin and as soon as they got it they let me know it was shipped out that same day. I had it 3 days later.
Well I'll keep watching to see how your build goes. Lots of good people with good info on this forum. Hit me up if I can help with anything.
Rob

HAH..in stock! Mine is ordered! They were out of the compass ball link sizers so I ended up with the generic one.

I do not suggest emailing Mike. He's on the go. I'd suggest calling him. Take it from my experience. I have him on speed dial. I get stuff the immediately from Mike because he jumps on my request as soon as you speak with him. Call the store internet sales number for fastest service. Plus, he will customize your purchase if needed. For example, when I bought mine a year or so ago, I didn't want a HW ESC, so he took it out of one of the kits that included it so he could ship me a helicopter. So, just because the web site doesn't show stock for what you want doesn't mean he can't meet your need. I am needy, so I know.

Congrats! Remember to re-size all the ball links including the two on the tail rotor assy. A few more tips in this thread.

Just to add to this thread. I order my 6HV from RC711 a few days ago. Unfortunately the BeastX was on backorder however they are shipping the Heli and parts first then the BX later. Great comms from them and very easy to deal with.

Will update after the box gets here

I first ordered my 6HV from rc711 and they e-maild me and said rc711 can no longer ship Compass kit's to the US. After a quick refund I found out while waiting for Nankin to get some in that rremodels.com now has Compass kit's. Mine will be in on Thursday and the shop is only 45 min. away. Can't wait!!!
