second-hand GY601 value?

[trillian]

There is a GY601 with matching servo on Ebay now and I am curious, what do you guys think it's worth? I have never seen one on Ebay here (Ebay .co.uk).

I see the 611 and servo combo from sellers in Taiwan for a bit under £200.00.

Is there much difference between the two? Is the 601 better than a GY401?

Until recently I have not paid attention to these gyros because they are just too expensive and I cannot get my head around paying more for a gyro than the cost of the heli (but then again I am not a 3D flyer).

The 601/611s are night and day better than a 401. You cannot even compare the way they feel. I cannot notice nay difference in the 601 to the 611. The problem with buying a used gyro is the servo. It can easily cost you $109 to replace the servo if it goes bad (which they do over time)
