i went into the shop to buy a radio controlled helicopter as a present for my brother. the guy that served me was virtually persuading me not to buy one because i was a woman (he even said to me '' helicopters are really a mans thing'') this i felt was very sexist considering it was for my brother and not for me (although i didnt tell him that it was a present)
This is not very good customer relations and i think they need to undersatnd that women can buy things men buy, like a real car, watches, jewellery, dvds.....do i need to go on.
I cannot rate this shop at all, i find their attitude arogant and rather disturbing.
i would not recommend this shop to anybody unless i loathed them (but some of the helicopters did look rather nice even through the eyes of a woman), and could quite see the attraction to them THEY DEFINATLEY WONT GET ANY OF MY MONEY.

although the owner and staff member dan are very polite and friendly ( i doubt they will be when they read this ) the same cannot be said for trevor the owners son who also supposedly works there (ive never seen him work ) this guy i have found on a lot of occasions to be RUDE ,IMPOLITE ,ARROGANT, and NOT VERY HELPFUL, this is a shame because otherwise i would rate this shop, but unfortunately i am not going to...i personally wont be giving my money to them anymore..this is good for me as thier prices are quite over the top, especially when internet shopping is easier and cheaper

my wife bought me a infeno neo 18 buggy from hoverfly for over 300 pound, i followed all the instructions by running it in etc and the engine blew, when i phoned the shop the owner trevor, advised me to contact the company direct who built it which i did and got sent a new engine, ALL great untill the same problem accured again and when i contacted hoverfly, trevor told me that he wanted nothing to do with it and i must go straight to the manufactor, they was very quick at taken my money but when it came to any advise from hoverfly they ALL didnt want to no so very bad exeperence with them. trust me dont waste your money because all there good for is taking peoples money....

Nice friendly helpful guys. Ive been to many RC shops in London and not many are as nice as the guys at Hoverfly. If you are a first time buyer into RC Models they offer good advice and support in case you encounter problems and will get your RC Model working for your enjoyment. You do not get personal support on building your RC Models and advice from buying online..I dont know of any Model shop in London that are open on Sunday,great for when you need spares for your RC Model because you prang your model on Saturday afternoon and Sunday turned out to be a nice day to be outdoors enjoying your RC Model..Aiddie

What a joke,
They all seem to friendly at first but let something go wrong then the true colours come out.
Overpriced, Overpriced and yes overpriced !!!
Try your best not to support this shop !!!!!

this shop is very interesting at first but when the owners son can not be bothered to help you all he cares about is himself he has never been seen by me working he just lounges around and dotty mardon i am not being funny but i wouldnt recommend this shop to you at all i suggest you go to the shop in dartford or elsewhere

I have just purchased my first RC heli….a Blade MCX beginers model.
Right from the start when my other half went in to the shop on a recce mission, to the three times I have been back to the shop for advice and spares, the quality of service and general all round friendliness is a rare thing these days.Trevor deffo gets my repeat business and custom.

My girlfriend wanted to buy me a helicopter for Christmas so we looked in Trevor’s shop. Any idea of buying from the internet went straight out the window as the support and advice we got was worth the tiny difference in price.

Hoverfly is awesome…
I joined Qype just so that I can say what and amazing shop this is for any enthusiast. The owner has one thing in mind, and that is helping out, making sure that you can get up and running. He has helped me out on many occassion and I don’t think I have ever walked away from his shop without getting the parts I want or the advice I need.
Awesome Service!
Friendly and eager to help!
Experts in the field!
Reliable!
