Thanks for your input, seems like we are pretty much on the same page, differences being largely semantics I think.

So, the £1,000,000 question... Are you now confident that all parts for Forza helis will soon be available? (and if so does this include parts for the 700 speed?)

I'm still in a dilemma on if to push the button on a Forza 700 airframe..

I can only go by what has been said. They said part support for 3 years. All I or any of us can do it decide to take their word for that or not. If you are someone that don't crash then I wouldn't worry about it. One thing we found they don't wear out or take much for replacement part that way. Crash will do whatever

To my understanding RC Depot will not sell to end customers, but supply to JR distributors.

In anyway it is really good to see the progresss and gives hopes.

Yeah, good to see this. Hopefully they get arrangements sorted out with local distributors and we start seeing these items in places we can buy from.

I wonder if they plan on selling full kits?

Does anyone know if RC Depot will be supporting older helis in the JR line? I've got an E6 550 Id like to keep in the air. I also wouldn't mind owning a Vibe 50 or V50 NEX.

According to what RCDepot said when they first made the announcement of taking over JR RC product distribution the Forza700 , Forza450 & NEX E6-550 will be supported. Sadly no other models.

Thanks Grumpy Old Man. I have exactly those 3 helis so still good news for me. I fly other brands in nitro but I do miss the Vibe 50s. They flew so nice.

This is great news I love my 700. I had advertised it for sale but will pull the ad down if possible and if not mark it unavailable.

Yes this is great news indeed . My Froza 700, E6-550 and Forza 450EX are very happy now and will be happier when parts are in my grubby little hands 😊.

For how long is the question. Then again the Forza 700 speed is one of they best looking helis one the market (to me). You don't read anything bad about them either wich can only mean they are solid performers.

Well that question is impossible to answer. And is valid for all brands.

Hi everyone.
I have a FORZA 700 and I really appreciate the engineering design in producing this kit.
The forza flies like a hot pattern airplane and yet so steady in hovering manuvers.
My hope is that the parts will be available.
I am interested in the speed version.
Is there any left for sale in the usa ?

happy flying

The last Forza 700 Speed was sold in Nov/Dec 2017. I know this because I bought the second to the last Forza 700 Speed.
