I've had good luck with them, I buy direct. Valley view RC also has some that are exactly like hobby pak. I recently picked a couple up from them because Hobby Pak was closed for several weeks.. They have 10% off right now to, not how that compares to getting them direct from HP: http://www.valleyviewrc.com/estore/accessories/wing-bags.html

I thought the VV bags looked like the hobbypak. I added bag to my cart, and shipping was $25, I quickly emptied my cart.

Oh, didn't see that! I ordered a couple bags with other stuff so shipping was not bad.

I just loaded bag in cart. I think its just the size of the box is large, thus the crazy cost on shipping. I think Tom and them use priority mail a lot, and bet that $25 was priority 2 day. I shoulda emailed them and asked, but was already frustrated after dealing with sdshobby knuckle heads, that I saw Spot on bag $8 shipping and jumped on it.

I've been tempted to jump on the carbon landing gear and wing tubes at SDShobby but a little scared. The Canadian builders have been buying parts from them and having good luck it seems.

I went threw ebay, and it turned into a cluster buck. If you try them, go direct, may be a little different, than dealing threw ebay. I'd also use Paypal, gives you a little protection. I add protection to the PP also, by funding my account with a CC, if PP doesn't act right, then you have the CC to dispute it, doubles your protection.

I use Pilot RC bags as does everybody else in my club. Great quality bags for the price!

The only thing I don't like about the revoc bags is the material inside the bag would rub off on the wings and leave a dust on the wings. That was a couple of years ago so they may have changed it. It is pretty sweet how they customize the bags.
