Here is my story with Manta in Hawaii. They have bad customer service because you cant talk to anyone since they are in Dubai. I requested multiple times to have a conversation and ws directed to an email. No help in the states and especially Hawaii. The Manta Takeoff Air does not provide enough power as advertised to e-foil. The advertisement showed people e-foiling at high speeds with the Takeoff Air on there web site. I think they took that down now. It will not give you enough power to efoil if you are over 175lbs. Until they make a motor that can really handle people that weigh over 170lbs, these motors are gutless and only good for very light riders and works as an assist at best. I bought the Takeoff from Manta during the go fund me stage and it took a year to get it which was fine, but it cant get me into the air even while using a high volume board, the motor is to weak. When I asked for a refund or a replacement system since it could get me out of the water they wouldnt do it and blamed me and my gear. I have been prone foiling, wing foiling and e-foiling for over 5 years. I am an avid foiler. That was a slap in the face from a company I invested in when they were a go fund me company. I waited over a year to get the gear that doesnt work as advertised. 3 of the 4 batteries died on me and they did replace those, but it cost the rep in Hawaii to personally pay for it out of his pocket which was lame to do to him. Mutliple parts didnt fit when I received them and some broke when installing them. They replaced most of the parts over the next 6 months. Bottom line as I have owned the product for almost 2 years now and it still doesnt push me on any size board to get to the air and ride. It only works as an assist and barely that. So I now own this Manta Takeoff Air and I cant even use it. I recommend going with Lift or Flight if you want to efoil at all. Those systems have the power to actually efoil. I would avoid this company until they can get good customer service and dealers to help there clients in the areas the sell them in. You will be left holding a product that cant get service and is hard to put together. Check to see who will fix your board in your area before you buy. Its a long way and very expensive to ship product from or to Dubai or China when it comes time for repairs. I hope they would offer to let me trade them back the Takeoff air I have for the new more power full motor they now on the market, then I would be a happy customer and could get back on the foil. With what they sent me I cant ride and was not what they offered to sell me. I feel scammed. Beware!!!
