Banggood verify...

[thejman092]

I'm wanting to buy a cheerson cx20 from banggood.com and I was wondering if it's a legit website to buy quads... Advice much appreciated!

I have ordered several items from banggood. I just hate the wait, but anything coming from over seas takes time.

 

[thejman092]

Okay thanks for the advice! I'll be getting a cx-20 soon!

Do get some spare props and battery.

What about gearbest.com?

 

[ringolong]

I have never ordered from them.

That's alright, they don't accept debt cards... Know of any quads that have brushless Motors and are at most $240?

That's alright, they don't accept debt cards...

Never do you want to deal with overseas vendors with debit or credit cards. PayPal is the only safe way to go.

Dealt with Gearbest.com, not bad, frustrating wait time. Currently have two issues with the Cheerson I'm waiting for tech support to help me with. I won't buy from them again though as they are not helpful after they have all your money.

Yeah I don't wanna go with someone like that... I think I'll just buy a dji phantom.

Well you think DJI is gonna be better at resolving problems? Best to do some online research.

 

[thejman092]

I always do online research... What's the problem with the phantom?

Did you buy the Phantom??

If so... how are you coping with it? Any issues?

I did not buy a dji but I bought a Duma x8c... The motors are of course brushed (which I knew) it's pretty good but I burnt a motor. I'm in a quadcopter group on Facebook, would you like to join?

https://www.facebook.com/groups/quadcopters/ Great group, very active, very nice and sometimes can be funny and sarcastic and it's fun. If you have any questions about anything quadcopters, ask them. Someone will most likely know (depends on what it is). I don't think they have a age limit so no worries about that!

Age... just 9 years - according to my wife who keeps insisting I stop playing with model aircraft and GROW UP! I am in Australia - NSW - Central Coast... so popping round may be difficult!

Haha! Well it's what you like to do and she should let you, it's a lot of fun!! I think I have changed my mind about getting a dji. I want a racing quads and it's not really the best thing to use. LOL! If you want you can email me about this.

I am always wary of "chatting" on forums - mods usually jump in and advise its for help etc,.
With that in mind I am building an extention to my photo websites ... and adding a chatroom!! Be a while yet though....
