Hello, Like title says, is there any ballpark estimate as to the selling price? Or maybe price compared to other competitor helis (like Gaui and T600/T500 and Logo 500) Working on getting $2000 to completely max out a 500/550 EP heli, just want to know which will be best. (I.E. parts support/price, durability, reliability)
:)
Something between $0 and 100 million dollars. Based on the G5 it should be fair priced.

The price has NOT been set as of yet. I feel like it will be around a logo 500 price range .
It will probably be cheaper , than the logo 500. Some of the crash replacement parts are going to be 2 to a pack I've heard.
Nothing is set in stone as of yet . But I promise you that it will be better priced than any other 30 size electric on the market!
I should have a flybarless head very soon, I will be converting one of my 550's to flybarless. Using the OUTRAGE 360 flybarless system. We should have prototype Outrage 600 nitros by the end of October or first of November.
I have seen cads of this heli, and I tell you it's going to be bad ass too....
Charley is one hell of a designer , and a really down to earth guy..

HC i believe there will be 50 flybarless kits packaged with sk360 as part of the first batch.

Only if It passes the testing stage. We test all of our products before releasing. The head will be tested before it is available to the public.

Just walked in the house from Black Sheep, WE HAD A GREAT TIME, Glad to see the Sheep back on the schedule. The 550's were off the hook, and little Austin brought his "A" game

Well look at the teachers he has! If I had that kind of support growing up I wouldn't have waited until I was 26 to start flying helis. ;)
Looks like the 550 fever is spreading. Then we got some nitro action on the way as well as the little Outrage that could, the 200. Good times! :thumbup:

Steven and Austin will be practicing some "southern slam" together, Hopefully Steven and Craig will get together before the New England event next month so they can put on an "Outrage-ous Show" up in Mass.
Will, your right the kids definetly bought it to Black Sheep, (mini HC) showed everyone he could hang with the big dog's machine, when we finally got him to land there wasn't a drop of fuel left in the tank, just a big grin from ear to ear.

The price has not been posted as yet, should be any day now though with the release the end of the month
Just for fun (or wishful thinking) let's take a stab at guessing the kit price (no blades,motor,ESC, etc.)???
Metal head GF version - $325
Metal head CF version - $450

I think you will find the GF and CF to be more closely matched in price than that.
FREE !!!!! Oh wait you didnt say what price we wished for :) I'd be willing to bet it will be very competetive to the align stuff as the G5 is with the 450.

I don't care if it's competitive with Align's over-priced products, I hope it's competitive with Compass & TT ??? ;)

I wonder if the initial stock will meet the initial demand??? I sure wish I could preorder one so it would just show up on my doorstep when they come in.
Any guess on the kit price??? $379.00 ???

I'd pre-order if I could as well. I want a big heli and don't want to go Nitro yet, and this sounds like a great, great choice.
As soon as they add it to the helidirect website I'm going to sign up for email notification.

I have seen the pricing for the 550 kits. I must say all of you will be very shocked to see the price of the kits . the kits will eventually be offered 6 different ways.
Charley will announce the prices here pretty soon. I think he should be the one to do it since he's "THE MAN".
The parts prices are going to be crazy.
