That's a good price. I noticed that it comes with the 27 megahertz transmitter so I wonder how long they've had them. I would imagine that once these are gone you won't see them again for this price with 2.4 GHz.

Have you read the reviews? Lots of problems with parts missing, boxes turned inside out, no branding. My guess is these are returns, not repaired? Could still be good value if you chance to get one that's easily fixed. Banggood carry a fair selection of cheap HL spares, as of course do our mates here. Sorry, never been a fan of TH. Good luck though.

Mine arrived yesterday.
Date of manufacture was Nov 2105.
I didn’t know they used them but the battery pack is 2 18650’s.
Box was perfect, everything was present & correct.
There was a fault though, the transmitter on/off switch was iffy, soon sorted though.

The control board is something I’ve not seen before, all connections are soldered & it’s definitely not proportional lol
