Default Hobbyking uk warehouse now open, bargains galore!

Amazing prices on lipos, chargers, motors and electrics and just about everything all available posted from the uk warehouse or collected in person from elmsett. Just treated myself to 4 sets of the latest turnigy a-spec lipo competition grade batteries, 2 x 6600mah 65c sticks and 2 sets of 5200mah 65 c saddles for the grand total of less than £150.00. Delivered. I missed a trick too, if you look at an item for over a minute it gives you a 6% one time only discount offer, between this place and giantshark I will save a fortune....

Their stuff is good, I've had one of their helicopters for a while.
Just keep in mind that none of their motors or cells are on the BRCA homologation list so if your preferred championship/region/club requires them to be you'll have to buy again.

+1 for club racing i have some stick and saddle lipos for racing and others for flying toys , very happy

as roger M says not homologated for BRCA use In My opinon who would protest a 20 quid lipo but rules are rules and they aren't legal and you may not be allowed to use them ,Tricky if you have no others

It's great I've used it already. Shame they don't stock the full inventory

I've noticed a few people selling turnigy cells for more (some times x3)
The cost you can get them new from the UK warehouse. I'm not sure if they didn't know or if there trying to make a quick buck from people who weren't in the know!?

Got a very hi tech servo from the UK warehouse last year. Super spec, super cheap. Why pay more?
