| Century (the manufacturer) never did sell parts directly to us Century flyers.
Their site used to automatically switch you to their own associated retail hobby shop (Heli-World).
I am sure that is why so many of our local hobby shops would rather carry Thunder Tiger, Align or Hirobo, as they did not compete directly with the hobby shops that stocked their product, by selling directly to those who fly their helis. It seems most LHS's do not want to carry Century products if they were going to only promote the retail store they owned.
So now they refer you to these other stores, including Heli-World. Maybe now, hoefully, we will see more LHS's start to carry the helis and parts. |
