Let's see, I own 2 600's. Do I really want a 500? For the price, I think I would choose to just buy another 600 or more parts to support the 2 I have now.

I'm very happy that it is availble. But I got the feeling another version is coming out later. Probably a version with tuning parts, torque drive and etc. (I haven't seen the blue canopy ;-)

There is a message at the top of page that says this service is for Tawain only .
So unless your in Tawain I guess your waiting like the rest of us for these things to arrive at out local dealers .

I'm on a waiting list and looking forward to mine. I have a 450 and a 600 and can't wait to pick up this tweener. I'm hoping to make it my daily flyer. I'm just hoping Santa can pull it off before Christmas!

I guess my interpretation was poor.

I wasn't trying to be smart , sorry if I came across that way . If you could order it from there and have it in say 2-4 days I would nearly do it , hehhehehhehe. But they won't let us , dam it .

Wow - I can't believe the seller listed it (GF version) with buy it now and free shipping to the US from taiwan for $489. You'd think they'd list it at full list ($519 US) plus reasonable/fair shipping - they'd still sell them all with buy it now within 5 minutes of listing.

[rdlohr]

Wow, I agree. It looks legit, but I'm going to hold out for one of my regular suppliers that I know will take care of me if any problems arrive. Great price though and he has very good feedback.

There's also a CF kit on ebay right now from the same seller for 503.00 plus 40 bucks shipping, if you CAN'T wait...

I'm also going to wait until Readyheli has them in stock, that's where I'll get mine if I do get one. Still slightly undecided, buying one will really deplete my crash fund.

[beeflyer]

That's not the same seller.

[beeflyer2]

Buyers beware, I dunno about the Ebay thing anymore. I just got this message from the seller in response to asking when it would ship:

Dear Sir:
Do you mind that i wear the serial number out which on the main frame?
If you do not care i can ship the item to you next week.

WTF?

[Billybuck]

Must be someone with a test version that wasn't supppose to be for sale.

[billschmarr]

I noticed it on Align's website last night. I don't own a Trex yet, and was thinking of starting out with a 450SE V2, but they are pricing this very aggressively for it being so new. It is very tempting if that is going to be the pricing available here from U.S. Suppliers.

Can't wait to see what the combo deals are set at after the holidays.

WTF?

Could be a "Hot" heli that someone got off the factory floor. Or from a dealer that's not suppose to export, otherwise there's no reason to scratch off the serial number.

[Billybuck]

I think I will wait until next spring on the 500. Need to play with these 600's first. :lol:

Sorry, didn't realize it wasn't the same seller.
