Chers amis modlistes fuyez Hobbyking n'achetez pas chez eux : emballage bacl, en cas de casse vous n'aurez rien, Hobbyking c'est la roulette russe, il ne faut pas avoir la balle ! ces gens ne mritent pas de travailler, aucun srieux, vous avez des prix bas au dtriment de la qualit sur certains produits en particulier les bateaux. La coupe est pleine avec eux, mon avocat va se faire un plaisir de les laminer!

N'achetez pas ! si vous avez un problme de casse la rcption ils ne rpondent pas. Ces gens sont anti-commeriaux et malhonntes : ils vous demandent des photos pour vous faire croire qu'ils grent votre problme puis ne vous rpondent jamais mme si vous les relancez. Mon avocat va se faire un plaisir de les craser avec toutes les preuves accablantes contre eux. Hobbyking a va changer pour vous, en attendant profitez bien de votre systme !

Fuyez ce site ! mon bateau arriv cass mais le carton de livraison aucun coup. Ils l'ont mis dja cass avant l'envoi. Ce sont des autruches quand il y a une casse. Envoy 12 photos et suivi instructions, relances, et ne rpondent pas. Ces gens la sont vicieux, ils savent que le client ne va pas leur faire un procs pour 100 d'achat. Il faut que les gens qui ont eu des problmes non rsolus se groupent pour les attaquer en justice. Ils vont avoir de mes nouvelles bientt avec mon avocat ! La pub je vais les soigner.

Du, bateau cass sur environ 10 cm ( toute la pointe avant jusqu' l'ouverture dessus de la coque ) dans le carton d'emballage alors que le carton n'a reu aucun coup ! je pense qu'ils l'ont mis dja cass dans le carton. Toutes les vis ne sont pas serres. Leur carton d'emballage est souple ce qui ne protge pas assez le bateau. Je vais voir ce qu'ils vont dire. Le bateau est inutilisable en l'tat. Les autres utilisateurs n'ont pas eu ce problme de casse. Par contre la dco est bien ralise, vernie.

Great little boat for the money. Having trouble with water getting in the hull somewhere but other than that the quality is good. Not for begginers that's for sure. Well done on another good rtr boat HK.

Maiden voyage proved quite successful, this little boat Rips! Takes some effort to get on plane but once it does, she'll cruise at around 25 MPH... Had to move the rudder rod to the outermost hole in the servo horn to get it to turn properly, otherwise it was a 50 foot turning radius... Found a large crack in the front of the hull between the sponsons which I will fix before the next cruise... Water seems to be coming up the stuffing tube past the flex shaft due to the fact that the stuffing tube does not fit inside the strut, it only butts up against it. I noticed some misalignment - will repair with shrink tube. Not sure how to program the lipo cutoff - my new NanoTech was pulled down past 3V per cell, ESC was cool and motor was lukewarm after 5 minutes of full throttle pulls. A fun little craft which will someday be fitted with a foam push bar so it can retrieve the Genesis if a problem should arise.

Received my Vortex today. Upon initial inspection i decided to gut the entire boat and go over every piece. Ran a small drill bit through all water ports, added more epoxy to motor mount, greased the flex shaft, added epoxy to underside of hull where stuffing tube exits, added blue loctite to all screws. Battery tray only fits one Nanotech 3s 1300mah battery. I will be using the HK310 radio system tonight during its maiden voyage. Will post results soon.
