Hobby Help in Hamilton...


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Hey everyone, I need a little help. I live in NS and need to grab a few new lipos for a trip. Seems like eflite-style 1S's are near impossible to find out here right now.

I normally would order them online, but didn't leave enough time. My brother is also heading south with me and I was hoping I could send him shopping. He lives in St.Catherines/Hamilton. I know all the Mississauga shops, but am having trouble finding a shop in his area that would carry what I need.

I'm not commercial trolling or anything, but it would be a great help if someone could pm me a few suggestions for him to try. Thanks in advance... I hope I haven't broke any forum rules asking about commercial shops...

Re: Hobby Help in Hamilton...

Skycraft in burlington would be your best bet. Hobby shop in St. Catharines is terrible. Most of us in the niagara region either go to skycraft, the mississauga shops, or Buffalo.

Re: Hobby Help in Hamilton...

Support local if you can but if not, why not order off Amazon.com and ship to your destination (assuming south meant the USA)? I'm not sure if there are restrictions bringing LIPOs on a plane, if you are flying down, or not but check into that.
