anyone bought from rc mushroom?

[Chris Wood]

I am looking at making a purchase and found this RC mushroom

looks to be overseas.

anyone have any dealings with them?

specially radios.. that is what i am looking at. I would assume ( call me stupid ) 2.4 is the same there as it is here?

thanks

Chris, appears that they get good reviews most of the time on r/c tech

 

[Bill Christmas]

Not sure if it matters, but rc mushroom has a note stating that the radios they sell are Hong Kong versions.

 

[Chris Wood]

that is what i was wondering if the radios are ok here in the states?? is there a difference between them here and there?

 

[RodneyPierce]

not sure if there would be a difference, but I wouldnt think so.

Out of curiosity, what are you looking to buy that is so exclusive overseas?

 

Later

[Chris Wood]

not exclusive

much cheaper.. i can save 150 dollars on a radio system with 2 receivers vs 1 receiver here in the states

Chris;

If memeory serves, it is the power out that is the difference. (Tx power )

 

[Tim Kish]

Could be a knock off ?

 

[Tim_Duggan]

Transmitters for the Japanese domestic market have lower power output levels. I don't think thats the case for the rest of the world but could be wrong.

Found some negative reviews but just as many good reviews. Also found this on the website

Please note that RF regulation varies in different countries. We, RC-Mushroom LTD is only selling Hong Kong version of transmitter and/or receiver. For customer who wants to purchase the Hong Kong version of radio transmitter and/or receiver, it is customer's duty to contact with the original manufacturer to make sure the RF regulation is not against their local regulation.

2.4 in Europe in a much lower wattage, but most of Asia and the US are the same

I did notice I could have saved over a hundred depending on shipping as the 4pl would have come with extra receiver.
