Check out the Site.

Hi Guys,

www.RcSuperSales.net. We're about a year old and the website has been up for about two months. We sold on Ebay for a year before opening up shop on the web. Check out our feedback http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAP...ab=AllFeedback, only one negative feedback out of over 700 orders, and it was a USPS issue and not our fault. We currently do not have all of our inventory up on the site but are adding too it everday. We sell pretty much all the parts and upgrades for all the popular micro helicopters, the T-REX line and other. We have a few distributors and also deal with car parts and upgrades. Venom and Integy are our two main distributors for that.

Anyways check it out and we are always looking for feedback positive or negative. This is a site built by me personally, Kyle Allred. I am the President/Owner. I started out flying real heli's before I became involved in the RC Heli scene. Another 6 months and I will be getting paid to fly real helicopters and doing the RC bit on the side, though it does seem to consume most of my time these days. I am all about hooking people up with the best prices and service. Straight up family owned and operated. I love helping people out and giving people discounts when possible (I gotta eat too). Not sure if everyone knows but the RC heli market has pretty slim profit margins, so we can only sell so low before it just isn't worth it. I know a lot of you probably buy overseas and those guys sometimes drive the prices down so low it is hard to do business on some items. But it's all about a free market and competition is always good. Anyways this is a great hobby and very challenging and rewarding. I recommend anyone that has ever wanted to try their hand at flying the real deal to do it. If you are looking for a job then get into the Helicopter scene. It is full of a great group of people and there is a huge need for pilots right now. All the Vietnam Era guys are retiring and a lot of companies are hurting for pilots. Here are some good resources for anyone interested. I am going to this school currently finishing up my Bachelor's degree in Aviaition Science - http://www.uvscaviation.com/. Another good one http://www.verticalreference.com/vra...-training.html.

Just for your information as I have talked to numerous pilots and non-pilots alike who thought this, YOU DO NOT NEED TO FLY AIRPLANES FIRST. In fact it is easier to teach someone that hasn't flown planes as there are no bad habits to break, don't be mad fixed wingers LOL. Well if you have questions about RC Helis or real Helis give me a buzz. Check out the website and help support a Pilot in training . Already have over a $100k in student loans, well it was better than Dental School.

There has to be another supplier of these bits somewhere!

Just checked out rchelicoptershop.com. Nice selection but almost $50 to ship a honeybee King.

www.rc-fever.com has great prices on esky products (better in some cases than miracle mart, previously mentioned as being best). I haven't ordered from them so I can't vouch for their service.

You guys know if they are any good? I bought an Esky King2 from them yesterday. So far no replies and they haven't charged my credit card yet.

I just really got concerned when I notice they don't have any contact telephone or an address on their site. Just email and fax numbers.

I googled them and they seem to have mixed reviews.

I got some small tools from Hobbie Guy RC and thought that their shipping and prices were pretty good.

It's a little late now to be asking this question, don't you think? Hopefully you will be OK with the purchase, but if there is something wrong with your item you probably will not get the same level of service as you would from one of the recommended vendors in this thread listing.

We'll I finally got a hold of them. Apparently, they we're out of stock (even though their website showed they still had them and claims they never post items they don't have on stock) so they we're holding my order until they get fresh items by the end of the month. They never informed me and I would have never known had I not contacted them.

On the plus side, they didn't charge my credit card and customer service was excellent and they cancelled my order in a breeze.
