Now that the 700s are shipping, what shall I salivate over? Is there a 600 SE V2 coming? A 700 gasser? Maybe a 200 sized cp?

I am guessing the following but possibly not in this order.

Flybarless systems for Trex's
TT for the 450 OR......A V3 version of the 450 (with a LOT of changes).
A 550 size Electric
Possibly a micro Trex e.g. Gaui 200 size.
Possibly a gasser mod for the 700

The Grasser will be next, the market is open and will not take much effort to make this happen but this will not be available till March of next year.

The flybarless is ready for the taking but the head design need to be right, I'm not impress with the way the head looks on these flybarless setup (if the main shaft can go deeper into the main block and the jesus bolt could be where the flybar mixer arms was, and the lower mixer arms which is attach to the slider can be elminated and attach to where the jesus bolt were will make it a clean look - hope you follow what I'm trying to say).

T450 V3 will be a money marker, but any thing smaller like the T200 will need to be linked with a transmitter and that means partnership with another company, thats why alot of newcommers go with the Blade line of helicopters.

The newest heli manufacturer is about to develope new line of helicopters and that will be interesting, and this time we will not have to wait that long for it, the first one is the harderst to produce, after that is plane sailing from there.

Thanks

the 200 would not need to be sold RTF, many people that already have the big helis would by it to fly 3D in their front yards, it would be like a gaui 200 with parts support.

GASSER would be great.....!!! having open market and a leading company gasser makes sense.

I have to agree! a 500 with a O.S 32 would be nice to see !

I prefer the nitro heli way of fueling, it is cleaner, and it is very unlikely that you will dump all of your fuel out inflight

I would like to see an Align multi bladed rotor head for the 600N. It wouldn't take too long for align to design and test a 3 or 4 bladed head.

An electric version (12-15s, maybe flybarless) would be nice imop!

Cheers,

+1 we need to think off the noobs :YeaBaby:
and putting a OS 37 in will give it some extra power for the more advanced flyer
But I should call it T-rex 550 N

My RC car doesn't dump it's fuel no matter how hard I abuse it so I doubt this would be an issue in a heli. Refuleing would be really fast!! and you can refuel keeping the engine going so you can take right of again!!

Agree, except that there are no problems with part support for the Gaui 200 today.
(Unless you live in Denmark as I do, and have to buy parts in the UK or US)

my LHS stocks all the parts for all the align heli, and no gaui parts, so for me atleas it would be like a gaui with parts support.

Align should probably work on keeping up with demand. There are many parts that you simply cannot get because they are out of stock. I'm hoping that after the 700 is released and demand for them calms down they'll be able to focus on producing parts.

How about some decent quality (and cheap) scale fuses for the 600 & 700. $400 - $500 for a 50 sized Bell 222 is just crazy!

they already have some very nice MD 500D fuse's for the 600N
