While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Order 363280 from 27/7/2023.
I did never receive my goods although I payed in advance.
When I asked several times for information or payback, I only got the standard email as a response.

I have bought goods for over 100 euros

I have bought goods for over 100 euros, and no one responded to emails, other than when I asked if I could pay with paypal.

I have contacted paypal and asked to get my money back.

Not a company I would recommend.

EDIT:
After 1 month, i got all my stuff, but for saveing small money, still would not recommend

Guten Tag,
wir nutzen Trustpilot nicht als Bewertungsportal. Wir haben Trustpilot nie darum gebeten Bewertungen über uns zu sammeln und leiten auch keine Kunden hier zu bewertungsabgabe her. Warum auf diesem Portal (bei dem wir uns zudem weigern einen bezahlten Premium Account zu kaufen) nur negative Bewertungen auftauchen ist leider äußerst merkwürdig. Bei allen anderen Bewertungsportalen haben wir jährlich einige tausend posiviten Bewertungen. Wir raten jedem potentiellen Kunden sich lieber dort eine Meinung über uns zu bilden.
Vielen Dank

RUN AWAY HOBBYDIREKT.DE -- Du temps et de l'argent perdu --- A FUIR !!!!

Very bad experience, my last with this site.
No communication possible. Via the site or by email, I received no response despite +10 emails sent.
I received a damaged and deprogrammed airplane model.
The inside of the box was also damaged and patched with Scotch. It is a shame to send a NEW product under such conditions.
I want to point out that the transportation is not for nothing, the container is intact.
No response for requests for information or return request for service.
Partial refund after 2 months, always without information of the site. Just an automatic message from Paypal to announce a partial refund. A very bad adventure that made me lose 3 months and money.

===========
Très mauvaise expérience, ma dernière avec ce site.
Aucune communication possible. Via le site ou par mail, je n'ai reçu aucune réponse malgré +10 mails envoyés.
J'ai reçu un modèle d'avion endommagé et déprogrammé.
L'intérieur de la boîte était également endommagée et rafistolée avec du Scotch. C'est une honte d'envoyer un produit NEUF dans de telles conditions.
Je tiens à préciser que le transport n'y est pour rien, le contenant étant intact.
Aucune réponse pour des demandes d'informations ou de demande de retour pour SAV.
Remboursement partiel après 2 mois, toujours sans information du site. Juste un message automatique de Paypal pour m'annoncer un remboursement partiel. Une très mauvaise aventure qui m'a fait perdre 3 mois et de l'argent.

Zu Trustpilot: Auf diesem Trustpilot Account werden sie kaum noch sinnvolle Bewertungen von uns finden ! Warum ? Um unsere Kunden sinnvoll und in ausreichender Anzahl auf Ihre Bewertungsmöglichkeit hier bei Trustpilot hinweisen zu können möchte Trustpilot uns einen Account für mindestens 1068€ im Jahr verkaufen. Dazu sind wir nicht bereit. Da es nun mal aber so ist, dass 10000 zufriedene Kunden unaufgefordert keinerlei Bewertungen abgeben, ein unzufriedener dies aber auf zig Portalen macht wird es hier fast nur noch Gemecker geben.

Lousy place to shop

Lousy place to shop, actually worst RC shop so far.

I ordered some spare parts (in April 2017), which i again and again was informed was in back order, they didnt reply my mails, after months i wrote a mail and told them to cancel the order, my next step was to contact PayPal.

The didnt give me a personal answer, just an auto message confirming that my order is cancled.

Fast shipping, plane not complete. No communication.

Bought a 'sonderposten' model. It isn't complete (screws missing, propellor broken). Send several email to info@ and service@ but no reply. So i won't buy here any more.

Good:
Fast shipping with tracking, packaging

Bad:
Incomplete plane, no respons on mail
