I purchased an electric race track. Erica was awesome. I had to also buy an electric adapter to convert the track from battery to electric. We found the adapter and Erica worked with me to ensure it was the right adapter and it fit the track before selling me the track and adapter. Excellent customer service.

I drove 3 hours round trip friday, Saturday and Sunday. I am putting together a cloud 0.5 paraglider from a German company. I came to this store for radio and electronic motors and servos help. All I asked was please help me sync the radio to the plane. The supposed 'expert', that I called and verified was here before driving another 3 hour round trip, said he doesn't know anything about spektrum products and wasnt willing to help accomplish this project. The best he or anyone else in this store could say was reach out to a person in Sarasota(another 1.5hr drive 1 way) but you can only reach him by email, but I don't have the email. This place is does not have anyone with basic knowledge of the products they sell. They aren't helpful. This is why I will go online shopping. I hate saying that but at least I'll get someone with knowledge. Now I'm sick with over $200 of radios and servos I can't use or return.

The staff is very nice and helpful! The girl there helped me find one of my favorite gunplas! The environment is also really relaxing. I could honestly spend hours here. Will definitely be coming back when I visit Tampa. 10/10

I bought an engine for my nitro truck come to find out it was used and missing parts. Then the associate blamed me and would not return the item that I had for less than 24 hours. You would expect better spending 250$ for a part. The customer service was terrible. I will never buy anything here again

Just came into town from Boston,for vacation.I brought my RC car to have a little fun and went to a skatepark, bashed it, broke it and found this place not too far from the place where i am staying. This place has great staff, very knowledgeable, and has lots of parts in stock. They got me up and running in minutes. 💪🏼Prices are what they are and in my eyes whoever said they are pricey must not know what they are doing. Parts are fairly cheap unless labor is the issue. I've been to the rc store numerous times and never spent more than 40 unless getting tires or a shell. And I've broken all gears, drive shafts, control arms, shocks, even servos. If you are in the r/c world stop by and check this place out.

Last year I was there to learn which RC car I might best enjoy. Yesterday I stopped by and received good info and bought the XMaxx. Thanks. Edit: 5/27/23 Love this place. In one word, Honest. Came in for a charger issue that was a warranty issue = thanks. Looked over my XMAXX and said it's in good shape despite my horrible driving = thanks.

I love this place. 1. They have the good stuff that nobody else stocks. All the products I want Brandon Hobby Town has. Knowledgeable staff also makes a difference! ALSO PRICES are not marked up because they have items that others do not like many other retailers do
