The rumor mill has it that the original factory is building these and selling the without permission from EF/3DHS. The slight modification in name is a fairly typical counterfeit move. It’s probably exactly the same plane as was offered originally but not authorized by EF.

Thanks guys, I can confirm this is a non authorized model. I had 2 separate inquiries running and both came back saying 3DHS had parted ways with "3dhobbystorm" factory in 2016 due to QC concerns. This effectively is a Slick built exactly the same way just not sold through EF/3DHS..
I can't find anything regarding this corruption on the net, I think we need to get the word out there. |

Here's a repost from Extreme Flight on RCG
EXTREME FLIGHT EXTREME FLIGHT CEO Complete and utter rip off. Please stay away. The crooked factory that we left 2 years ago is now producing these under the name 3D Hobbystorm (how clever) so they can use our 3DHS logo. We are in a bitter battle with the China trademark office against this company that has already cost us a small fortune. This is the kind of crap that makes me wish I never got involved in this industry. What's sad, if I speak out against this on social media I am quickly vilified for simply trying to protect our brand. |
