Re: Another price hike Really?

Did you bother to read the last sentence in post 58 ??????

Nothing wrong with quality product made off shore or anywhere for that mater. But if its quality its price point is going to be much closer to the other products that are similar. Manufacturers order from the same factories the difference being the price point they negotiate for that product. They will build you something cheap but most times you get what you pay for. Inferior metallurgy, quality control, repair part availability and warrantee.

Went through 3 offshore CNC machining companies before we found one that provides quality and support. Cost was about double of the cheapest. Shipping time was much faster, four days for a premium.

Hobby Klunk is quantity not quality, service after the fact is poor, warrantee support nonexistent and they're policy of you not wanting a refund until after 40 days exceeds the charge back window allowed by credit cards. Then you are at their mercy for your refund. They serve a niche but you have to understand the limitations and accept the risk.

As to Frsky comparing to any long time main brand is a crock they don't have a hair of infrastructure to support the radios like the others do. When those radios are still around 20 years from now with no gimbals/wiring, cases coming apart problems then you can tell me about their quality control and durability.
