RCL Shuttlecocks

Took a tube of Perfect 77 from local source thru BC contact few weeks ago.
I have tried to mix the Sintec 818 and RCL in a 2 hours game for low immediate level.

Flight: Comparable Sintec 818.
Speed: Comparable Sintec 818, don feel significant different since no -ve comments from members
Durability: Easily last up to 1.5 game just like the 818.

IHMO
After the game while collecting the used shuttles for next warm game.
I found the stem of the feathers of RCL deteriorate more than the Sintec 818. In the end, the numbers of "Ok" pieces which can be used next warm up
session are mostly Sintec 818.

Overall , I feel the RCL Perfect is kinda same range with Sintec 818.
Next consideration would then be the pricing and easy stock availablity.

 

Anyone tried RCL Orange .. ? The low end one .. ?
And anyone tired the RCL offical???
Can give some review??

 

Thanks for the info.

 

BTW, how much did you pay for the RCL Perfect and Sintec 818?

 

Perfect $26
Sintec 818 $25 to $26 (depend on quantity)

 

Thanks for the info.

 

RCL brings the meaning with an abbreviation of "Reliable, Consistent, Lasting"

RSL stands for Reinforced Shuttlecocks Limited.

RSL existed since 1928 in England whereas RCL is a Malaysian brand created in 1988. As far as I know, RSL is now owned by a Hong Kong company. In Malaysia itself, RCL existed before RSL came into Malaysia.

 

Today get to play with RCL Titanium shuttlecocks. It was from Ipoh and selling at RM54. The durablility of this shuttlecock is the best so far I have tested. Most feathers remain intact after 2.5-3games with plenty of smashing. Hopefully this model will be available in JB soon.

 

I have tested RCL Titanium too, same feeling but if the speed would be slightly faster will be really a perfect solution based on the price & durability.

 

U were recommending apacs 700 flight shuttles the last time izit? How does it compares to RCL titanium? Personally i've tried some apacs 700 shuttles....some were super durable and consistent in flight even after 2 games while some shuttles wear off pretty fast....so it's like the whole tube shuttles isnt consistent in quality

 

RCL titanium is better in durability compare to Apacs aero-flight 700. Pricing wise, RCL is RM6 more than Apacs shuttlecock. Most of the apacs shuttlecock I tested last 2 games and I do not understand what do you mean by wear off pretty fast. However, RCL titanium is not available in JB and pple have to get it in KL, Ipoh or further northern state of Malaysia.

 

Wear off as in it isnt durable....like i said, some birdies were good for 2 games and the flight is consistent throughout while some last either 1 game or less, cannot be used as the flight consistency isnt there or 1 of the feather broke off... Nevertheless, the price paid is still quite reasonable

 

If the shuttle lasted a game or less it consider poor quality. Although I have not come across this but based on what you experience it might be a poor quality batch. How many tubes have you bought in JB?

 

I bought 1 tube only at Honly and bought another tube of RSL classic tourney as i wanted to try which is better...hehe

 

Hola4, have you managed to try RCL No.1? Thanks.

 

I get RCL T1000 shuttlecocks, weird I didnt saw the shuttlecock model in their website.I didnt try it yet,anyone try it before?Can give any review of it?I buy it in Putra Height,it is cost RM57 ... The seller recoomended me this shuttle because it is durable and have good flight

 

Never try it, but since you have bought it, why don't you let us know instead?

 

I'll organize a session with my old friend that almost a year didnt meet each other.Its on Wednesday.I'll give a review soon!

 

Amin, have you got your review ready?

 

Sealion gold is still the most popular in Malaysia.
