        I've used midlands on and off for a number of years now and while their website isn't as good as the competition if you call them up on the phone they are most helpful.

          I'd agree the Midland website could really do with updating. However I ordered some parts for my Synergy from them and some other parts for it from Fastlad as neither had everything I required. I ordered both lots within half an hour of each other and both orders turned up the next day. Great service from both shops. I always phone Midland whereas I always use Fastlads website, end result is usually the same.

            'Just received a set of shiney new Mavrikk 'patriot' blades from Midlands today.

            I know Fastlads gets a lot of praise and they deserve it and I buy from them as well but Midlands is the 'rock' (plus they carry all sorts of weird parts for strange helis that some of us crazy people fly)

                  I would not be able too pursue this hobby without their backup, and Midlands being so close to Robbie, fantastic, long may they prosper.

                    Don't want to pi$$ on the bonfire too much but my last dealings with Midland is one I would rather forget .

                    It would be easy to blame their crappy website but in reality it was the customer service attitude that let them down so badly

                      I do heli repairs for the LHS here in lowestoft. On occasion helis come in for repair and we are not sure what they are even. No probs I take a photo of it on my phone and send it to Matt. Within minutes he is on the phone with what it is, if he has spares and if he doesn't where to try.

                      Midlands rocks and Matt is my Guru.

                        I think you have hit the nail on the head- they are both good, but I get better results from Midland by phoning- it would be nice if they could improve their website.

                          It always amazes me how midlands and skylines et al don't update their websites in line with the likes of Fastlads and the old real raptors websites to have live stock info. It's the main reason I prefer to use the FL website over all others, sometimes it's not convenient to pick up a phone during work hours and ask if they have stock of many items when I can just click on the FL website and see what is and what is not in stock instantly.
                          Come on Midlands and skyline et al drag yourselves out of 1990's websites into the 2010's!

                            Hi,

                            Thanks for all the comments, the new website is close. Rob is putting the finishing touches to it (or at least he will be when he gets back from corfu ;-))

                            As I am sure rob will confirm it's been a MAMMOTH task but it's nearly there, thanks for your patience & believe me we will be making plenty of noise when it finally goes live :-) So I am sure nobody will miss it.

                            Regards
