TBS Caipirinha - UK stockist?

Andy Sayle · June 10, 2013, 12:58:43 PM

Hi Folks,

Does anyone know if the TBS Caipirinha is available from any UK based stockists? I quite like the look of them, it would fit perfect on the parcel shelf of the car for impromptu flights....

And, does anyone know what size FPV cameras fit in the premoulded recess?

Pretty much any camera will fit in the recess, either completely drop in or with a very small amount of adjustment so don't worry about that. And yeah it fits on the parcel shelf very easily :)

I maidened mine yesterday. I had so much fun that by the 3rd pack I was doing flights through the goal posts at top speed. And I had so much fun that I went into full kamikaze mode and ended up stuffing it into the ground....Must remember not to have so much fun next time.

I can confirm that they are indeed excellent. I really fancy one myself.

Yep LOVE mine, excellent fun and fly really good. Do not use the bunny ears though. I found they wag about a bit with these.

I can report that the TBS webshop is bloody annoying. I've been trying to place an order for the last half an hour, and getting nowhere fast. I can add stuff to a basket, and choose the express shipping. Great. I can enter my shipping details, and I can hit proceed. Can I work out how to pay the guys? Nope. I have had 5 confirmation of order emails, and not one of them, nor one page on their website tells me how to get a paypal payment to them!

Maybe it's a sign telling me not to get a Caipirinha afterall....

Buy it from here, it will work out a lot cheaper, and quicker for you.

I actually emailed them last night. They have no stock for a good few weeks apparently...

TBS website has an order cap. When they get too many orders you can't order again.

Stupid really, means you have to wait around for the cap to go away.

Better to just have a variable delivery date. When X orders give the customer a X day wait. So at least you can order and pay and get your name on the short list.
