Amain hobbies carries hobby-wing electronics now!
How cool is this? Seems like amain has started distributing hobbywing products. Should really help the brand edge into the limelight. It appears to be mainly competition level products now, but they might bring in some of the more basher oriented things too.

Pricing isn't too bad either. I checked expecting everything to be $30 more then on ebay but its actually fairly comparable.

A Main Hobbies is an authorized HW dealer through the FalconSEKIDO network. Our goal as HW team drivers and HW in general is to get the HW brand into every hobby store in america. With the recent addition of HRP distribution and now A Main it looks to be well on its way.

And it won't be long before Falcon Sekido either matches Amain pricing or lists everything for full retail. They'd be nuts to undercut AMain, even by a few bucks.

After a long break from RC, I'm sort of surprised, but glad, that Hobbywing has taken off so much.
Before I stopped, I bought a Hobbywing EZrun combo, cheaper than I could buy a OK quality brushed motor. Remembering at the time (in Australia) a brushless combo was $400+
The amount of "why waste your money on crap like that" I got was amazing.
Yes, the motor I got fell apart right away, but a drop of locktight and that was solved.
Many years later, that same motor is still running like new.
If it wasn't for them producing half decent quality for a very good price, we wold still probably be paying a fortune for brushless.

Ezrun is not nearly as good as the Xerun escs/motors they have .

Bicycles too. Their new site looks really weird.
