I am a happy costumer from France of martin's shop buildyourowndrone.co.uk.
I must say I'm impress on the reactivity and help I got from him. Customer service is perfect.
I'm glad I have chose him to buy an apm+motor esc combo.
I would recommend him as much as I can.
Thanks Martin!
Hi there,Just thought I would drop a BIG THANKYOU on Martint wall. Had a problem with my Ardumega board. called Martin he said come round when i'm free and let's get the problem sorted out. Went to his place spent 2 hours with him testing. Found the problem was a faulty component. Used the board from his fully working quad gave me the choice either take a new one to solder or have his. I said i'll have your's :) I now have a fantastically working arduquad. This is what customer service should be like. Excellent and i will use Matrtint again without any hesitation. See you at DZ2.
Many Thanks Paul.
Another happy customer of Martint and his online shop http://www.buildyourowndrone.co.uk , this time from sunny Scotland.
Not only is Martin's shop service first class, with fast economic delivery, but his support is second to none, with a cheerful, no problem and personal approach to any queries or request for help no matter how trivial.
Thoroughly recommended to the community.
Many thanks Martin P
Nothing to add to the words of my previous speaker. I became a loyal customer because of that reasons. :)
Martin, thanks for your excellent support!!! I bought all parts to build up my first arducopter from Martin's store www.buildyourowndrone.co.uk . Very fast and cheap delivery to Czech Republic (4 days). Great and fast support (over skype, + desktop sharing (teamview)). I spent with Martin over 2 hours on skype and teamview teaching my arducopter to fly. If you are planning to buy arducopter and you would like to get FULL customer support -> Martin is the only choice!
Just wanted to express my gratitude for the fantastic service you have provided me with from the moment I placed my first order. To any reading this, Martin provides the very best in speedy delivery and absolutely outstanding customer service. No problem is too big or too small ! I am in Ireland but location makes no difference to the support you will receive ! Thanks again Martin. You have my full loyalty.
Hi Martin thanks for this reply.
Can you summarise the kit you would recommend so I can check out the prices on your site. As a new starter I would like to buy as much pre configured kit as I can.
Roger
