hansgruber Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Robinson department store in town has them. Toy department 3rd floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swbaggies Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 What about a general toy shop. Any good suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansgruber Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I can't think of a general toy shop that isn't in a department store. Toys r us is at homeworks but they have no drones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinginKata Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) There is a quality model shop on Chaofa West about 2km out from Chalong Circle, left side, small place. They specialise in remote control planes etc, so I assume have drones .. Edited December 21, 2015 by LivinginKata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merijn Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Central has them at 3 floor behind the small mobile phone shops. There is a small shop which sells the drones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinLOS Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Not in Phuket Town, but Lazada has some nice choices: http://www.lazada.co.th/shop-toys/?q=drone&sort=pricedesc&dir=desc Wow. Some are nearly 70k baht. Some are easily 5x that still in consumer realm.. For pro work 10s of 1000s isnt that unusual.. UAVs extend far beyond just toys.

beechbum Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Got 1 for the little bloke for Xmas, 1900b from Toys R us, great fun and really easy to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCardinal Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Buy online also. twinprohobby.com one of Thailand best RC shops. Not based in Phuket, but very fast shipping and really know their stuff. The RC shop mentioned by livinginkata is easily missed if driving north because they sign on front on building says "insurance". When driving south the sign on side of building says "RC". Limited stock there and many items he needs to order. Online option far better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
