[QUOTE="Stambo, post: 103810, member: 1529"] Unfortunately this is one of the risks you take dealing with cheap stuff from China. I as yet have not had a problem with anything from Hobbyking. I have 2 Zippy Compact 4s 5000s for my quads and have had great success with them. I look at it this way, I can buy and ship 3 batteries from China for almost the same price I pay for 1 in New Zealand. Hobbyking sell a lot of value for money products that will cost sometimes more than twice the price elsewhere. Some of it will fail or turn out to be junk. I buy from them with this in mind. I am happy to bear the risk as I am already way ahead. If you have a more local supplier that can come somewhere close to matching their prices and then give customer service that would seem a better solution, however in my situation buying locally is not an option. Also the service in my LHS is absolute crap. I will wait for parts from China rather than set foot in his door ever again. [/QUOTE]
