Default esky helicopter owners inside

Hello I was just wanting to know where you guys purchased your esky stuff. I see most is overseas. How was shipping. How long did it take. None of my local hobby store carry esky stuff. I would like to buy one but dont like the idea of waiting a long time for shipping of parts. Hopefully someone can tell me some good news. Thanks

Another vote for Jag! No shipping confirmation, but the package always arrives before I start wondering where it is. I wish I could say the same for all vendors. For non HBK2 specific parts I like readyheli and helidirect.

Default Don't buy from X-Heli

a few weeks ago my son-in-law each purchased a E-Sky CP. After I quickly crashed mine we agreed to stock up on spare parts. So I placed an order with X-Heli. The total of the order (not including out of stock items) was $255 plus shipping. I waited 6 bus, day to receive the order. The shipping receipt listed $227 orth of parts and my credit card was billed for $227. But I only received $74 worth of parts. Since the recept of the order I have emailed X-Heli 3 times and called them once (that's a joke) to resolve the problem. The best I have received is an email telling me that they will contact me ASAP. However, they have emailed me twice to confirm that I have received the shipment. In each case I have explained the problem and requesed them to contact me. I have entered a dispute with my credit card company and refused any payment over $74. And screw them for the shipping charges.

Default Elgin Illinois

Does anyone know a place in the Elgin Illinois area that sells E-Sky Belt CP parts over the counter? I have ordered parts from X-Heli and they are slow and the screwed up the order. I have purchased parts from Hobby Town in St. Charles ILL. over the counter but they don't handle E-Sky they handle E-Flight but some of the parts interchange. So far I can't find anyone that sells E-Sky parts over the counter in my area.

Xheli is fine if they get your order right. Otherwise they are -painful- to deal with.

I've bought many things from BP Hobbies and could not be happier with them. Lots of stuff in stock and very fast shipping.
