Well, i just called HP to see if i can get a tracking number, and guess what they tell me. They just found out about an hour or two ago that they have not been shipped, there has been another delay and are suppose to go out next tuesday.I do not blame HP as they were reassured the were suppose to go out this week. How can Augusto keep doing this and expect the masses not to be upset. So now he has everyones money and still no heli shipped?

so they billed peoples cards and not shipped the goods...... here in the UK that is SERIOUS problems with the Credit card companies and banks. In the UK if a company charges your card then the goods MUST be shipped with 24 hours of charging your card or your merchant status can be withdrawn.

Either way I'd be seriously pissed off by this. I was hoping there was a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel (at LAST) however to resort to one last shady tactic such as this defies all beleif.

So much for all the patriotism and "made in the USA" shizzle.... this guys seems to be taking everyone (American or not) for a complete mug.

Cheers, Will.

What possible excuse could he come up with now.. Does he not realize that the future of his whole company rides on this. Why would anyone want to by anything from CarbonXtreem if he can't make this happen. Especially at this hour.

The word on the street is correct. Not shipping tell possibly Tuesday of next week if even then.

Pity some other company was sharp enough could see through this smokescreen and buy the design off him and we would of all been saved a lot of time and grief. Its a SUPERB/SEXY design backed by the WORST customer support in RC Heli history!!!

Time will tell but I bet if people dont see their Auroras by middle of next week there's gunna be an almighty stink kickin up, and rightly so.

Cheers, Will.

When they paid 100 dollars to be on the waiting list is one thing, its a whole different story when your wallet is light close to a thousand dollars and nothing is coming is another...

You've got to be kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What the hell kind of business is he running? How much longer are you guys going to put up with this $h!t?

The time for fun and games is over now. I've made jokes about it, and laughed about for a long time. But that was about a $100 pre-order. Now, he's taken $1000 from people, advertised the release, and all of a sudden, MORE EXCUSES??????

When are people going to say "Enough is enough!!!!!"?

Most of the people that REALY irritate me
are in my family

It will be interesting to see what it would take for the supporters to dis-continue their support of Avant...

No, I haven't seen any excuses made by any representative of AvantRC.
Just not seeing a result.

I'm one for saying, "results not excuses", this time I want an excuse.
