Argh..If I didn't need the $$$ for another business expense I would be in on this one.
Guess I will have to be patient. :D :arggg:
Chris I assume that the future prices will be a bit lower once all the production issues are worked out?
Seems a tad high for a Turbine ship to me, but again no Turbine I have seen yet is this nice.

Keep in mind here the costs of things that are out of our control. Turbine, interstage, gearbox.
Compare the costs of current turbines and their capabilities with ours. You're looking at a much lighter weight machine, based on the Intrepid gasser EB mechanics and control system.
Actually, future prices may be a bit higher, once we figure out the actual costs of production. :shock: This is a one time Introductory Price with the aim of getting some birds out there as quickly as possible.
It'll be awesome either way, and I guarantee you WILL be happy with it, or else :lol:

Chris is you are right about that, being that I built the prototype I know first hand the costs involved as I went through it. being around turbines for awhile now I understand the difference in cost from the glow or gassers. You are right about what this one can do, I have a turbine from another company and can say with honesty that it does not have the capabilities that the Bergen has. I have flown quite a few different turbine heli's and the Bergen will do more, get better flight time and do it as smooth as the pilot can fly. I have many flights on the Bergen and it gets better as I go. If you are looking for a great turbine this is it, if you want a cheaper one e-mail me as I have one for sale!!!

Guys....
First let me say I was not trying to say that it was not worth the cost...
Just wondering if the increased production would bring the price down any.
Like I said it is a couple hundered higher than the current crop it seems, but from what I have seen and know about Bergen it will be worth the extra money I am sure.
Guess I will just have to work harder this summer to fund the new camera ship. :D
