Vendors I Like
About These Vendors
I get asked a lot about where to buy products so here is a list of some of the vendors I use. Yes, I also buy from Amazon, Banggood and HobbyKing, etc. for some build components but these vendors give great products at great prices with great customer service. I have also included a little information on my customer experience.
The List
Link:Aloft Hobbies
I have been buying from Aloft since switching all my FPV radio gear over to Taranis in 2015. I also get Aeronaut folding prop blades and other prop bits as well as some of their unique electronics. They ship very fast and have always been an excellent resource.
Link: Bolt Depot
Bolt Depot has a fantastic selection of fasteners in imperial and metric sizes. Their shipping is very fast and the prices are incredibly low.
Link: DragonLink RC
I have found their Long Range radio products to be excellent and their lifetime warranty is a big plus too. They also make some excellent 1.3G video antennas!
Link: Esprit Model
I buy all my Aeronaut folding prop parts from these folks. Their selection and customer service have always been top notch.
Link: Hansen Hobbies
I get all my servo and JST connector parts and tools from Hansen Hobbies. Super fast service and a great selection.
Link: Hatchbox3D
Makers of great printing filaments and also a good site for information.
Link: Innov8tive Designs
Lucien Miller, Inov8tives founder, has some of the best high performance motors you can find today. His site also has some great engineering information and articles as well.
Link: Micro Fasteners
If you can't find it on the BoltDepot site (above) then check here! Great selection of Stainless fasteners in hobby sizes and very good prices.
Link: ReadyMadeRC
I bought one of my first FPV rigs from ReadyMadeRC, a Finwing Penguin, in 2012. I still purchase a lot of my FPV gear from them including video transmitters and receivers, electronic filters, cams and anything else I need in a hurry. The quality of their products is always at the top and their customer service is second to none.
Link: RCDude Hobbies
I started buying from RCDude in 2012 when I bought a Quadrino flight controller for my first quad project. I have never had anything but excellent service and support from them and I am constantly recommending them to anyone who needs something they sell.
Link: Servo City
A great resource for Futaba and Hitec servos as well as Actobotics parts like gears, shafts and couplers.
Link: Small Parts CNC
A fantastic place to go for custom CNC parts and a large catalog of parts ready to ship. Need a metal motor mount for your foam FPV plane? This is where to go!
