Whats going on at VVRC?

Was wondering if anyone knows what's happening at Valley View RC since they became affiliated with RCGF? VVRC used to be a good source of props, but they show nothing available right now. Looks like they aren't carrying other items they sold previously as well.

A good number of VVRC's products come from overseas. The shipments of non-essential products (like our toys) were deprioritized vs essential goods relevant to health and safety. I'm seeing this in my business, with tremendous shipping delays. I'm sure they are just out of stock.


Also, don't forget that the Chinese New Year went from a normal 2 wks to 2-3 months. This meant a lot of manufacturers got really far behind. And when employees returns, many did not return at full force. At least that is what I've been seeing in my business.

Bob, perhaps just shoot a note to Tom at Valley View and ask him about the particular product you are looking for. He should be able to tell you when he expects them back in stock.

Just for clarity sake vvrc isn't affiliated with RCGF they have their own vvrc engines line, about a year ago vvrc "Tom" claimed falsely that RCGF asked them to be their sole distributor and had some other Chinese outfit make fake clones of the real McCoy, even had RCGF name on the cases talk about a piece of junk, this obviously cause much heartache for RCGF. A real mess was started over intellectual property laws/rights & name rights/ownership & copy right
infringement . RCGF is and aways has owned the company name, no one else.
