Well, that's something new... Chinese copying from Chinese...

The 3 websites are 1 and the same. Looks like a new start up company and they may not have payed the bill. Probably Walkera got cheated and they try to get back to them this way. If there was really counterfeit Walkera products available, it would be all over the hobby world, not just 1 Internet company in Europe.

Hohoo,
if they sell copies, the copies are good!
I´ve got my DEVO 12s, 8 Receivers from them. - they works fine.
... and on the way are 5 more RX - I hope I receive them next days...

... edit: the message from Walkera is dated May 2013 - and rc-master offers today many Walkera Products...
