Tired of the lousy no help customer service will not help you out will only laugh at you lack of intelligence and allow you to purchase more n more to further your issues not helpful very conflicting to the hobby I've spent thousands here unfortunatly and so have my freinds everyone has same issues over it thanks for wasting yet another hour drive for me here and hour back home to leave me hopeless as he says cant give you free advice when we like to charge for that then was kicked out of store by hippy kid and bag guy was only one near reason wont be back

The older gentlemen is extremely rude and uninviting. The owner was always a nice guy that was helpful back in the day. The old man has caused me to go elsewhere for my RC needs. **Edit: The Response from "The Owner's Kid" tells you everything you need to know about how they handle a situation and how they run their "business" Trust me when I tell you to go somewhere else if you need something for your RC cars.

The young woman I do not see much lately is always so helpful and goes above to help me read my paints, and match as close as possible to my old paints. One reason I shop local! nice to see a friendly face

They have low-end disposable planes when the plane breaks, toss it. Order from a good Hobby store online, these people are crooks.

Steve Harden | Jan 7, 2021

They try to fix them but they have screwed mine up every time I've gone in. I ended up fixing it myself and then had to fix their screwed up attempt. Complained to the owner of this place several times but all he does is make excuses. Because he is NEVER in that place, had to wait weeks for he to call me. The place is trash pure and simple.
