    1. Freewing
    2. FMS Model
    3. HSD
    4. Taft
    5. Flex Innovations
    6. Superior Hobby
    7. Tian Sheng
    8. Dynam
    9. Shenzhen Lanxiang
    10. RC Lander

      I am embarrassed to say how much I have spent to gain that perspective. But I have owned at least one aircraft from each of those manufacturers .....

        i have the HSD Skyraider. Its the best foam of any model I ever owned. I am not sure what type of foam it is, but its smooth, you cant see the cells at all.

              Good luck getting parts, I've been waiting for a retract controller for their big F-16 for 8 months.

                Hey Tirediron looked on site and is in stock.. I now what you mean about waiting for parts from HSD. They (HSD) need to get a better customer support structure in place. Using Banana Hobbies is not they way.

                    Did you try contacting HSDgo through chat or message to let them know what you need?

                        Hey TiredIron sorry but I guess I read wrong.. :wacky


                        Yea, as I said before HSD really needs to get their house in order especially when it comes to customer service.. 1 week ok but months...like HSD could not get one but all the planes get one...

                        It is the old saying of "Sales gets the first one and Service sells the rest" I think MRC has this sign there to remind everyone.

                          I listed HSD for product not service. I agree MRC is the best and everyone should follow their model.

                            HSDGo is Banana Hobby, essentially. I have had two of their 105mm F-16's...Great model! Just don't have the proper open space for it. I lobbied to carry them but I believe their operation is pretty small.
