They are popular with the RC crowd.  I purchased once from them and =20
had a problem with one motor (which was matched to the other three for =20
a quad-copter).  Their customer service and ethics is pathetic.  =20
Paypal would not do anything, stating that they only cover items not =20
received, rather than damaged items.  With some "effort", I eventually =20
(several months later) got a replacement, and after that paypal =20
changes it policy to cover damaged/problem items.  Only because of =20
that I may consider purchasing from them again (as I may have to match =20
items already purchased from them).

Another good site (which I've had no problems with)... =20
http://www.hobbypartz.com/ and shipping on most items is free, so =20
pricing works out excellent.  Picked up the 6-ch 2.4Ghz Rx/Tx set for =20
$32 shipped!  They have battery sales with prices comparable to =20
hobbyking.

Cheers,
