An experience with stoopidmonkeyrc

Be careful if your going to buy a quadcopter from them.
a month ago a asked them if I sent them all the parts need it how much will they charge me to build a quadcopter for me. The response was $100 and it will be ready in one day.
I send them all the part, APM flight controler, escs, motors, props, frame receiver etc.
It's been over a month now and still have not received the quadcopter, the person who supposedly build my copter had a car accident. He keeps telling me that he will send the quadcopter but he never did. Now he will not answer my e-mails (hope his not dead).
I have all the emails to prove this.

Moderator's Note:

I do tend to irritate people without meaning too......but..... the URL - name of website....says it all! But thanks for the warning to other who will now avoid losing gear.

I guess you have looked but.... if you have street address details of this guy.... call the cops!

You can also find out which hosting company he is using and contact them with a hackers/scam report. It may not help ... but some reprutable companies will remove ihs website.

To get the hosting information..... search "whois" select one of the many who will show up in the results and enter the website name "
stoopidmonkeyrc" and the "com" is usually in a separate box. It will then stream out a long list of information.... and should include his name and address - although it depends on if he has restricted some info.

I saw the eyes rolling.... so... use the whois - is you need more info ... but your gear is probably at this address........ send in the cops..

If you compose the address and put it into Google Maps, you can get his location picture and a map to get there. I did and saw it was a house. There is also a number of photos of a quad he built. What you want to do with that info is up to you.

The OP has posted nothing but Lies, and you all assume he is telling the truth! I understand the limitless amount of stupid people in the world, and every forum has them, but dang you people seriously win the trophy here!!! What kind of business assembles, or would accept the liabilities of assembling outside source merchandise, there is no way anyone would do this because of the variables are too great. 3 things come to mind as to why I would not accept a job like the OP suggests.

1- MOTORS
2- FLIGHT CONTROLLER
3- ESCs

Now say I was a idiot and accepted the job that is highlighted in this thread and the OP did actually send this drone to my assembly shop. Before assembly it is noted, that the parts shipped to us are obviously used accept the frame. After assembly and while attempting to test and setup the flight controller nothing responds. Then after a full diagnosis of the issues my technicians find that all of the electronics the OP sent are inopeable junk. How do you think that would end after I contacted him to inform him about the technical issues found? Only 3 ways I can see.

1- OP accepts our findings. (2 outcomes possible)

A- We ship non working assembled quad to him no extra charge. (2 outcomes possible)
a- OP is able to replace all parts himself, and learns to fly.
b- OP gets on forum and claims we fried his used ebay bought electronics, and sent him a broken drone.

B- OP agrees to buy replacement parts from me, and my technicians assemble, and ship working drone. (2 outcomes possible)
a- OP is happy like 99.5% of my customers, and returns as his skills take him into more advanced needs.
b- OP gets on forum and claims we stole the high dollar parts he sent to us and overcharged him for comparatively substandard parts.

2- OP insists the parts are new, and my technicians are at fault. ( 2 possible outcomes)

A- I replace all electronics on my dime with stock from my assembly shop, Techs ship brand new working drone, and I lose money.

B- I ship OP's garbage back, OP gets on forum and makes false claims we have stolen his new working parts and shipped back non working reclaimed warranty parts from our trash to him.

3- After informing him of the bad news, and the technicians findings, the OP asks what his options are. (2 options)

A- I sell him all new electronics, and replace his garbage with the parts I stock at 25% off retail, Techs send him working quad.

B- I ship back non working quad. (2 outcomes possible)
a- He is happy with our staff, and when ready orders one of my drones instead of trying to save a buck by buying used crashed stuff off of ebay.
b- OP gets on forum and claims we stole high dollar electronics, replaced them with non working substandard equipment.


Yes my office, and my company headquarters leads to a residential address. I run my company from my home office. Candy Hafen is not nor has ever been in control of, or employed by Stoopidmonkey RC. I do not know who Candy is, the information you posted is all bad, and falsified! The pure ignorance, and gullibility of the people who believe the OP's false claims, and responded to this thread is amazing, and should be given an award.

@moderator
Malicious/ damaging content such as the slander posted by the OP should never be allowed, and if allowed should be investigated and found to be true prior to allowing on your page.

Added a note and made the title more neutral.

The thread is now locked as I don't see any useful content coming from further discussion, however decided to leave the thread public as I believe that it is up to the reader to sunder useful information from both the OP's experience and company's rebuttal.

The OP's content would not be considered slander. They could however be libel provided the claims made are proven false.
