What would you like to see in Holmes Hobbies

[andres-tavares]

custom battery pack with bigger cells like sub C with more than 1500 mah ... 3000 mah + would be nice! "thumbsup"

 

[Kranberry]

LED lights and more NI-MH type battery packs"thumbsup"

 

[cotharyus]

Go fast brushless stuff. For larger things. You and I have talked a little about the Mamba Monster Max, that's the kind of thing I'm thinking about. Stuff capable of pushing 1/8 scale MT stuff.

 

[dezrik]

a Battery building kit would be nice, And make buying lipos easyer, im still dont know what i need for lipo O.O

 

[The Real Dogman]

How about a phone number to talk directly to you, when needed. Although you do a great job of answering here, it would be nice to be able to speak directly to someone.

 

[Thorsteenster]

I'd like to see a vendor here carry the transceivers for Nomadio's. Soldering iron/station would be nice too, may save me from getting a Weller station from Grainger.

I tried that, and there are 3 problems

1. I don't want to give out my cellphone number
2. I am not around my landline enough
3. I got so many phone calls that I couldn't get stuff done :lol:


I would love to be able to talk directly to my customers but unfortunately it doesn't work well.

The Biggest and best customer service you could provide is :

Product testing and feedback

Just like you did with the Castle BEC "thumbsup":mrgreen: PERFECTO

Do things like look up the hottest tire that is sweeping the podiums and sell it at a great price
or
product test the new stuff provide the feedback and then gives us the thumbs up to a prooven product to buy

Your business should reflect who you are, a happy expeirence with great results !

Focus on Comp worthy products: Axles, trannies, servos, tires, rims, upgrade parts, etc.
Radios tend to be expensive and there are many deals on them like ebay.

For the low dollar stuff, stock the cheap hard to find parts

I think the sport is growing to fast the most manufactures are just producing without much testing. And it Sucks to get something that breaks or just Does not Perform.

I agree, you already carry brushless speed controllers, now you just need a fast motor. Stuff to push things like a BL revo or E-maxx, not just another 1/10 buggy setup. Find something with major balls.

Like a 7 or 8XL?

i know that you said you couldnt put your phone number up, but what about something like an AIM screenname? or are you away from your computer for to long of a time?

 

[JohnRobHolmes]

My aim SN is in my profile, good luck catching me on there. I spend an average of 2 hrs a day responding to email and PM already, so catching me via PM or in a thread is the best bet. I have an ask question thread in my forum too.

 

[slobin3d]

Hey JRH, I was looking around you're site and couldn't find replacement brushes and springs, maybe that could be something to sell, I know there are several different types and cuts and spring rates but a few common ones would be good"thumbsup"

 

[custumrig]

how about spur gears 48 and 32 pitch

 

[JakeSpeed]

How about a "drop-in" dig setup for us fabrication-challenged folks.......or a drop-on fiberglass or lexan canopy for scalers??

 

[1981toyotapu]

I would deffinatly also like to see some radio and receivers, I would love to see them in 5, 6, or 7 channel pistols.

And x2 on the parts from the ax-10 kits, like the bolts and stuff.

 

[rmain2001]

I know I'm kinda late but I think a "certified pre owned" electronics section would be nice if you bought used stuff and rebuilt and tested and sold at a good price

I'd like to see a motor leads option drop down added for all the new brushed motors. Keeps me from having to call, get a paypal invoice sent, log into PayPal separately to pay, yada yada yada. It'd just be easier to add leads from a drop down then add to cart and checkout.

Secondly, did I hear you say you were working on a new ESC similar to the MMX with a programmable aux wire? If not consider this my nomination.

RCC T-shirts (large) , my old one is worn out "thumbsup".
