Chimera Pro FPV Wing Kit Unboxing

just saw the vid here for the pro kit. when i ordered my pro kit i checked readymade rc and every other source beforehand to make sure the pro kit would come with BOTH the large AND small wing stabs like the video here lists. i specifically wanted to run the large stabs along With the mid stabs for stability and ibcrazy's build vid mentions him using large/mids on one of his. "makes it great for knife edges".

however when i asked bondjr who i ordered through on facebook about missing the large stabs i was told on 4/11 "Stone Blue Airlines: You only get a small set for running in the pro kit with the mid wing stabalizers. If you run the large it messes it up. large is for the basic kit only." buuutt that's not what is being advertised... o_0

ok, so i can understand that, but i'd like to have the option to run one or the other, or screw it up/test it out at my leisure. really should have done an unboxing vid myself. after the few resent burns from bad ebay dealers making me twitchie about getting what i'm "supposed to" vs. what shows up at my door......

my chimera box has a corner ripped off and the rods are poking out (thanks usps), two ziploc bags are partially open and one with the small pieces is overturned/pieces scattered (oops), hot wire lines on the cores and no trailing edge "clean" cut for cleanliness/rigidity (talk about b stock), and someone forgot to wipe (or decided to use a stab to wipe with) before handling/packing my mid stabs.

for the price i paid for this cause it just plane looks awesome, i could have got an rv jet and not felt like an absolute tool. now don't get me wrong, i love the design, was wanting to buy more for the fun of building them and designing graphics for it, but "other" issues make me take a serious reconsideration about future transactions. =^-^=

i acknowledged the usps issue above and the parts was an oops. it happens. s'all good there. but after so many other (you should have read the fine print, etc) it just kinda burned me seeing this ad here (AFTER our conversation) clearly stating that both large AND small winglets were included after i made sure BEFORE my order was placed by checking our emails, your resellers and your video ads as well. it was also made clear in the aforementioned emails (50? o_0 ok, pages worth of text perhaps including a wing graphics discussion etc.) that for me to get the large winglets AND mid stab let alone traceable dimensions for a template to draw wing graphics out on, i needed to get the pro kit. sorry for being chatty and stepping on toes, but would you want someone less understanding screaming bait-n-switch/false advertising, "he's a ripoff artist"? i think not. i'm not calling you out as a dirtbag, that's my ebay battle. all told your quite tolerant and quick to respond. i only state facts and let others decide whether or not i have a valid argument. i understand it screws up with big wing and mid stabs. having a good looking wing that doesn't FLY good is a wall hanger, but had i known beforehand, i could have got the basic kit, saved me some bucks for the bluebeam ultra. just letting other customers know there are no large winglets since you not only haven't added that fact to your vid, let alone STILL haven't added that fact in your description above thus far. again, sorry to be an a$$. guess i been spending entirely too much time on ebay and forgetting the difference between cheap and enexpensive, and getting what i pay for. even with the discrepancy, the pro has lots of great stuff and the extra balsa elevons are a fair trade for the large stabs. no refund required, just let your customers know of your revisions in the future please. otherwise you and alex still rock the skies with a couple of the best birds out there. =^-^=
