it's that raptor rip off, i've seen it being sold under afew names the "tianzi" the gohbee "stinger", and there's another one being marketed by an australian company which i cant recall the name off, most of what i've heard has been fairly positive, but i wouldn't expect raptor quality or parts finish.

I'm working on a Stinger .30 right now and its going well. Its my first heli so I've nothing to compare it to. From looking at the website I wouldnt expect too much of a manual, I think Gohbee had to rewrite it and I've been using the manual from raptortechnique.com as well. Everything I've read about the Stinger has been positive other than the folks who don't like it just because its a Raptor clone.
Did you email them for those prices? I'd bet thats wholesale price and you'll have to buy large lots for that price.

Personally, I hope they make a good go of it.

Looks like they have a rip-off version every major brand. The M30 is hirobo knock-off, either shuttle or sceadu with a metal frame. look at each one closely enough you can match them all to well known helis.

Must be Hong Kong products, I don't think Hong Kong participates in copyright laws.

I got an email on this yesterday. Not something I'm interested in. I prefer to deal with people a little closer to where I am.

no good

The Eastmodel does not produce any heli. They just copy from other people's introduction and try to trade. Maybe we should buy directly from manufactures.

New Heli

The TZ helis or the same called Stinger in USA is a good heli.

RCMarket carry full range of those helicopters and spare parts
5 different modesl- 30,50,50SE, 60 and 90 are great products.

Prices are cheaper then competitors, but dont be mistaken, quality is better this time.

Explanation of prices is simple. Factory work straight towards Distributors, without Hitting too many dealers on the way.
This is a bit different structure and so far it prooves itself.

Most of parts are compatible to Raptors, but also the TZ are better.

Frames are reinforced, same for Landing gear and other parts are just improoved..

There are many companies or even virtual companies who will send many mails to get business, but it is important to by it form a source who can ship quick, supply parts asap, and at reasonable prices.

So has any one got one yet

Just because they dont pay roylties dos not make them bad
we try and evade the customs guys dos that make us bad.

the savings are passed on to us dont you think
If they make copies then surly we can use the normal replacement parts from the originals if it was parts availability that worried us.
