That's cool of them, makes me want to continue buying their product.Well I got to maiden the Bigfoot this past weekend.
THE GOOD:
Very stable flyer, once I got her trimmed out she handled very nice. Very stable, very gentle flyer. Nothing unpredictable in her behavior.
THE BAD:
The tires are very stiff and don't like pavement at all. They might be great in grass but slide all over hard surfaces with very poor traction. I will probably put some Eflight Timber tires on it.
The second thing is after the maiden when I went to taxi out for the second flight the motor seized up. I was very surprised after having a pretty good maiden with no mishaps.
THE GOOD PART 2 : I fired off a detailed email on Sunday to Hobbyzone where I purchased the plane, to let them know I'd had a problem. Monday (today) I got a shipping notice for a new motor. It was a surprise since I hadn't gotten a reply of any sort to my email. I am greatfull for the quick service., still would have been nice if they would have sent a reply letting me know what they had done.
Hopefully it was just a bad motor, I've never had a motor fail that hadn't been thoroughly abused first.
