Couldn’t fault this company,excellent service and product

Lovely quality. Had a bit of difficulty getting the collet to bite the shaft of XPower 2919/10. Otherwise very pleased

Useful connector for carbon rod. Used a small drill bit just to clean the inside.

Great connector for carbon rod. As Mike says, needed the hole tidying up

Despite tightening, the collet didn’t seem to want to grip the motor shaft (XPower 2919/10). I think I’ve overcome the problem but surprised as previous GM setups have been fine.

As always, GM propellers are first class quality. Great fit against the fuselage

Wanted a little wing that I could carry on one of my motorcycles in a backpack, and the Micro Dammit fits the bill, along with the SOAS. Built with removable fin. Literally the build is a matter of a few hours of time. Just waiting for the opportunity to fly it, but if the standard size Dammit S is anything go by, then I expect this to fly well.

I was delighted to receive my orange Forza. I'm really enjoying my first carbon moulded glider (Screamer) and wanted something a little bigger that will still fit in the boot of my roadster car. Straight away the quality exceeds that of my Screamer - the paint looks deeper and brighter compared to my Screamer.

I gave 4 stars because a tiny corner of one of the flaps was chipped off, so perhaps a little more care in handling these moulded gliders is required by staff. But once it's had a few flights, there will always be a few marks and chips anyway. Other than that, it's a beauty and I'm looking for to building it soon.....

Excellent product

I ordered 6 servos of various types.
The KST DS1225MG for a 5meter scale glider.
Emax and Bluebird for my Res Dart.
And even over Christmas they arrived in Thailand in less than 2 weeks.
You can't fault Hyperflight for their fantastic service. Always a good price and always great service.

Whoever did the takeoff from the prototype, for the laser cutting, did a poor job. Lots of parts just don't fit. The design of the tail surfaces is overly complicated. On the right outer pannel the LE sheeting butts up to the main shear web on the left it fits over it. Length of the ribs in the tips is off alot & the slots they fit into in the TE is at the wrong angle. Someone who is a master builder can correct for all these inconsistincies, most cannot. 5 members of our club started the Vince, 3 gave up, one finished with a modified fuse from the wing LE foreward.Mine will be the only one that looks like the picture, but I had to remake or modify many of the parts ---especially the fuse. I cannot recomend this kit.

Bought as a part of a Dualsky motor spinner and prop set.
Quality looks good and they fit and fold really close to the F5k fuselage they are fitted to. The price is good too.
Great service as always from Neil and looking forward to trying my new glider when the weather improves.

Amazing quality for its price and very fast service!

F5k installation, this is the third Dualsky motor I have used and all look good quality and have proven powerful and reliable in service.
Good accessories to and in partnership with the Dualsky spinner and prop blades really looks the part.
Not flight tested yet but if it’s like the others I have it should be no problem,

Bought to install a Dualsky motor in an F5k fuselage.
Makes motor install easy and also allows side and down thrust to be added accurately.
Provides a robust mounting and helps strengthen the front of the fuselage too.

Bought to install PTK 7308 servos in an F5k wing.
Perfect fit and a good price too.
Saves loads of work and makes the servo install neat and accurate.

Bought for an F5k glider project and I was very favourably impressed with the quality of the item supplied at this price level.
The twist on the yoke also ensured that the Dualsky blades used fold very tightly to the fuselage.
No balance issues and now just waiting for the weather to fly the aircraft.

Excellent service

PRIME RES 3

I’ve been flying my Prime RES 3 for a few months and am very pleased with its performance and the way it indicates lift. The kit is manufactured to high standard and includes EP foam jig blocks for the 6 sections of the wing. This ensures the under cambered ribs have the correct support during construction. Its a very satisfying build with excellent instructions on the net. The recommended motor is the DYS 2225-19 and the fuselage design suits the power cables leading from front of the motor. However the drawings show the prototypes have been fitted with the X-power 2307-14, a cased out runner with its cables off the back of the motor. The DYS motor supplies adequate thrust using a 3S lipo. I needed an 850mAh lipo (75gms) to balance out the model which is a reflection of the relatively light motor. The flying weight of the model came out at 510gms.
The wings diagonal ribs are quite beautifully designed and a thorough study of the Instructions is advisable for this stage of construction. The wing, with is multitude of similar ribs definitely qualifies for the axiom check twice and glue once. The manufacturers intended spoiler servos to be linked to the Rx using loose (flying)connectors . I build mine into the wing and fuselage so the wings are plug and play. The rudder is deigned to be glued to the fuselage. I made mine removable by making longer 2mm carbon pins which slot into the tail-tube and also reinforced the tube to reduce the risk of cracking if there was an impact.
The Prime 3 is a great build and equally good RES flyer.

Nice blades at a good price.

Nice spinner, goes together well and does the job at a good price.

Thank You Neil, ...for this easy-going-shipping to Germany...some of my recent in-country-ones took far longer...!
The Spadas build is quite robust...surfaces ok.
Let's say...China-top-quality.
Now I'm looking forward to flying this very special one...as it is quite different from all my other F3Fs...regarding planform and airfoils as well...

Good product great company

I ordered the kit shortly before Christmas. Delivery was super prompt, packaging was good, everything went smooth with import taxes. Unfortunately the wing came with a ditch on the leading edge (must have been from before it was bagged up, because, as I said the packaging was absolutely appropriate). The carbon layup is cracked, but its a small spot, maybe 7 mm in diameter. The thing will fly despite for sure, but I would definitely consider this B-stock. I sent two emails to sales@Hyperflight.co.uk asking for a solution (or any kind of statement really), on the 6th and the 15th of January. No response whatsoever.

I'm really a bit surprised, from the RC Groups discussions it seamed like the owner is a responsive guy.

I have been modelling for 50 years and used all types of covering, this product is fantastic and very easy to use,I have now purchased my 2nd lot and will be using more thanks.

They said the Yoda is the Swiss nife of dlgs.
Wel the new Vortex 5 became the super ++ Swiss nife of dlgs.
Super service from Hyperflight. Thank you Neil

Excellent

Perfect all easily fitted with epoxy and some filler and more forgiving over fitting the rod straight into the clevis end. I did wash the ends in acetone and allow to dry just to make sure there was no production oil inside.

recu rapidement bien emballé comme toujours
planeur facile a monter qui marche vraiment bien equipé de4 servos d47 et recepteur graunpner et accu 1s 500ma
un tres bon achat
seul probleme 30euros de frais de douane et 9 euros pour un stab 13 euros cest vraiment honteux
je recommande un vrai plaisir a faire voler

These covers definitely outweigh kit supplied products. A no fuss purchase from hyperflight and timely delivery to Australia. Definitely no issues from this end. Will be buying more soon

Not a lot to say its red vinyl tape sticks well easy to apply

Lovely to apply but be careful nice when on

great quality good padding and zips. I now have 5 of these of differing sizes.

Great servo

Very good and fast service.

An excellent traditional kit for a traditional thermal soarer. Not yet made up, but building looks to be straightforward task.

Once again Hyperflight sorted my Christmas panics with an online voucher. Easy to order and so well received! Thank you.

My 1st geared drive. Fitted 3850 Kv motor to TJI-RC Screamer. 14 x 9.5 graupner prop. 1700gram glider pulls unlimited vertical, quick enough for me. 3s 2700mah lipo. 45amps at 11 volts. Currently looking at some GM 14 x 10 f blades. Only had maiden flight so far. Hyperflight service excellent as always.

I recently used these to mount my LV06H servos for spoilers in my Antares Lite F3L.
Worked perfectly without any issues.

I recently used these for the rudder/elevator servos in an Encanto F3L sailplane. A little trimming to the frame as it's a very tight fit and not much room in this model. I keep these on hand for my FRES builds.

I use quite a few of the KST X06 series servos and these frames are awesome in F3L/F5L models. I always buy a set or 2 when I make an order. I would rather have them on hand when I start a build. !!!

These frames are awesome. I've used them now in 2 Encanto F3L sailplanes for spoiler servos. I've also used them in a Magic 2 F3L standard when I converted it from cable operated to servo operated spoilers.

It's winter in Minnesota so It will be a while before I can try this unit out. I'm very sad that they are no longer being made. But on the brighter side, They came super fast and they look perfect. I have no doubt that will be fine.

Bought to install in my new Slite f3RES glider. It fits well into a restricted space and should hold sufficient voltage for at least two or three hours flying. Also it's very cheap!

Bought as an f3 RES model but I wanted to keep it cheap, so didn't go for the 2s lipo and expensive High Voltage servos option; instead I designed it around a 700mAh Hyperflight NiMH battery with 2 x EMax ES08MAII R/E servos, plus an EMax 9052 MD for the spoiler; all less than £6 each. This required a very easy modification to the nose to widen it by 3mm, so I made a 3mm wider R9 front former which slightly splays the nose from the servo tray, allowing easy fitting (and removal) of the battery. It's also necessary to make a slightly wider piece of top and bottom sheeting from 3mm balsa. The hatch and everything else remains as per the kit. The holes in the servo tray need to be opened up slightly to fit the servos. Apart from that it was built exactly as the instructions. These are in German but the English translation is adequate if you've built anything like this before. The wing construction is built over a sacrificial balsa template, rather than conventionally over the plan, which ensures accurate alignment but is finicky, as the break-off tabs on the wing ribs can easily be broken off early during construction if you're a bit heavy-handed! I'm not keen on the single spoiler design but will see how it goes. I've used a slightly heavier but much cheaper covering than the usually recommended Oracover light to save money. The model has turned out at 490g, which is heavier than expected but balances perfectly with the NiMH battery without and extra lead in the nose and will be perfectly OK for UK conditions.

Small problem with mine Quickly resolved by Neil

So I ordered it and it came to the US quick but got caught up in some new customs requirements so it was sent to Honolulu,HI. Not sure why but took an extra week.
Got the plane and its beautiful. Couple of dents in the wing but nothing terrible. Didn't think anything of it for a couple days but finally had a chance to check for parts and found out the peg was missing. Yes, I looked all over thinking it dropped somewhere but no such luck. Contacted Neil and he wanted me to order something else to get the peg sent with it. Reluctantly did so and still waiting for it due to Christmas shipping woes.
The instructions are a little vague for a first time DLG builder. I've been building for over 40 years and had to ask many questions. Don't recommend using CA for anything. 30 min Epoxy seems the way to go. Don't mess up cause there are no extra parts. The tiny push rod housing for the ailerons make sure you leave enough for the little pieces glued to the center of the servos for the tail surface pull strings. Some of the DLG build videos have been somewhat helpful.

Work great!

Works like a charm

Great product, much better than kit supplied. Carbon fibre, look good, great finish and easy to install.

Service from Hyperflight great as usual.

Given 4 stars for the kit as there was a few issues:
* the balsa sheet containing the laser cut trailing edge parts was too short, so there was a bit missing from them - I had to add a little bit of scrap balsa from the sheet to correct the effected parts
* the centre sheeting only just reached rib 6, so there was minimal contact - corner of sheeting to corner of rib rather than the sheeting laying on the rib fully
* the servo reinforcing plate doesn't sit low enough, causing the balsa centre sheeting to slightly bulge up above the trailing edge - so I thinned the centre sheeting in the area of the servo plate so it laid level and flat.
* no servo hatch covers were supplied, so made my own

Not flown yet, but sure it'll be great based on videos I've seen.

Purchased because I wanted a few gliders that I could carry in a backpack on one of my sports motorcycles and the SOAS looked a perfect candidate.

I'm finding that British conditions very rarely allow me to fly my lightweight gliders and find that 9 out of 10 times I end up flying with ballast. Haven't used this set for my Yoda yet, but a test fit shows these are a perfect fit.

Builds into a very nice representation of the original, and flies well. I'm very happy with it. Four rather than five stars because in my example the laser cutting wasn't perfect, but my sheet wood was quite hard albeit light. Nothing a bit of time with a scalpel wouldn't cure.

I have used Hyperflight a couple of times in the past. They have always been VERY EFFICIENT, polite and helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company, and I will be using them in the future.

Arrived in good time and as described and pic, works well with the switch I needed it for.

Service from Hyperflight was excellent as usual, but 'DHL ecommerce' as a courier is rubbish. Due to our close proximity the parcel arrived at my local delivery in the Monday evening you sent it but because it was a 48hour service they deliberately kept it at the depot until the Wednesday when it was put on a van that travelled around all day and reached me at 5:12pm which is another day lost. 3 days in total :-(
I think you should change your courier, Royal Mail 24Hr tracked is excellent and DPD are pretty damn good as well.
Merry Christmas, Steve

I have used these servos on two of my planes, an NG2 and also a Syhawk Res glider for flaps, and spoilers. The servos are superb, fast, powerful and very low slop in the gears. I also used the fuz version for my Ailerons Rudder and elevators.

Have not touched a balsa kit in years. 3D print stuff now a days.
But this is a great little kit. All lazer cut and very precise. Just about finished the fusalarge and has gone well. Wings I'm sure will be just as easy. Watched a couple of build videos, but not found one for servo installation!!

Well packaged and fast delivery. Excellent and knowleagable source fior these hard to get components. Recommended.

Hi. Bought these 40 mm control rods as I am restoring an old RC helicopter and couldn’t find original maker parts. These are excellent and perfect for the job !

Unfortunately it hardly fits into the Purito. The nose of the E Purito needs to be modified. The reason is that the wiring is on the side of the engine instead of being behind.

have sealed gaps using various techniques and have to say this is as good a way as any - easy to apply, transparent appearance, has just the right amount of stiffness/flex. Used on my emerging Aria. If you are looking to seal those gaps - recommend you give this product a try.

Very efficient customer service and delivery of product. Very satisfied customer.

The plug dlg is nice kit to build very straight forward loans YouTube videos on it haven’t flys and build had had chance to fly it yet mini Dart arrive very quickly and the pub next day from order really pleased having a chance to build looks great though

First time using these IDS system/mounts from Servorahmen. Initially disappointed that they come with no instructions and took some time to figure out how they are used.

The fit of the servo arm into the bearing/frame is a tight push fit. A tip from Hyperflight when using the frames for the KST X08 version was to warm the arm in a cup of boiling water. This certainly made the initial assembly much easier.

In the end for the model I'm building I've not used the aileron/flap spoons. However, the end result is an excellent linkage with zero free play so I'm very happy.

Instructions or a link to such would have made this a 5 star rating.

10/10 for quality
10/10 for layout and design
10/10 for flight characteristics
And 10/10 for neil for stocking such a beauty.

All round an amazing little glider perfect for taking away on holiday as it packs down super small. having the motor means you can fly anywhere in basically any conditions, with the safety of always getting it back home if the lift dies on an unfamiliar slope or cliff over the ocean.

Needs no room at all for launch or landing as it will launch out the hand and land in the hand.

Thank you, Neil.

In response to Rahul's question: these are designed for conventional, not flat-tagged (wing) type servos. The servo tags slide into the vertical slots and then the cover restrains them in place.

Very nice covering material. Lightweight, durable, Easy to work with, and brilliant color.

Flap servos for CCM Toy. Been using these for years and never had any issues. The Pro version I’m sure will be even better.

Fast delivery and quickly resolved double payment error made by me.

Bought to go with a Resilience glider kit but returned as not required. Thanks for a full refund Neil.

Bought as a winter project and a new f3RES model for our club competitions next summer. Unfortunately, having inspected the kit, in particular the fuselage, I decided it was not suited to my needs. The fuz is very small and delicate with only a very small space for the Rx battery. So much so, that only a 2s lipo will fit and then only a 300mAh capacity, without modification of the nose area. I didn't want to buy HV servos for a budget model as that would add a considerable amount to the cost. So, I asked Neil for a return and thankfully he agreed to take it back for a full refund. Fantastic service Neil, thankyou so much! I have now purchased the "Slite" model which is a little more generously sized and accommodates a 4s / 700 mAh NiMh battery with a tiny mod to the nose and my budget servos.

Excellent advice and prompt delivery as always.

I couldn'd find long unthreaded alloy arms for my Savox wing servos. These fitted perfectly and seem very good quality.

This one will be used on my new Nan Orion II glider. Has not been flown yet, but this spinner looks very good.

Very good service. Fast shipping.
Very strong recommendation.
Thenk you so much.

M2 Anodised Aluminium Pushrod Ends for 3mm Rods - the perfect solution for sturdy but lightweight pushrods - great quality and good price Thank you

Perfect for my F5RES and Dualsky motors.
As usual service fantastic and fast.

I use the boom for freeflight, it is stiff enough

This epoxy is nice for repairs

Nice carbon for repairing

Ordered the prop blades. The correct blades arrived (international) promptly.

First class service and advice.

Great product. Enables fitting of the excellent Dualsky motors into 28mm noses. Use Loctite 638 to attach the drive shaft extension. Tried another product and it just didn’t set.

First class service and advice.

Just finished building the Resilience and I really enjoyed building it, super glider and it’s going to be a cracking flyer.

I have built a lot of 2m RES models now and this one is different. The kit and plans are laid out really well, really good quality wood and bits.

Build wise, first off let me start by saying it’s not a beginners model, if you’ve never built before it’s not for you. The wing build itself is a bog standard Dbox wing, but the dihedral joiners are made from wood, not carbon rods. Mistakes can be made at the wing joining stages and installing the top part of the D. The tailplane construction can be tricky as the jig is good but sloppy if you are not careful. The rest of the build is fun and the result is a really good looking model.

All in all, it’s been the best RES 2m model I have built so far. I’d definitely recommend the Resilience, thank you Neil for providing the kit and accessories.

Ordered and despatched on same day.
Received next day.
Can’t be anything wrong with that..!

Very neat spinner. The yoke, collet and pins are beautifully machined.

I ordered the wrong version. These are for fuselage mounting. I contacted Neil who arranged the swap for Pro A s. Great service. Arrived the following day.

Two for the V tail and two for ailerons as recommended by CCM. These are beautifully made. As always great service

All good

top quality item and top speed service as usual

Good quality and price

Lovely little kit of parts. I ordered the recommended servos and that was a good idea as the wings are very thin. Went together OK but a lot of fettling required as its a v.slim fit for everything. Flying was a complete hoot. A real aerobatic missile but slows down nicely with crow. It would be even better with a rudder, but I can absolutely see why it doesn't have one. Definitely recommended.

These are the best props.
