Used MD6 value

[Tomy.]

Guys, what's the current used value of an MD6 airframe? Anyone sold one recently? I posted mine up for sale on the forum with 4 sets of blades, tons of spares and upgrades, quick release trays etc. for 375, but after seeing how hard it's to sell them sometimes on the forums, I'm wondering if I overpriced it?

There is another one listed here that hasn't moved unless it sold at IRCHA for $250 Airframe and I think $500 as an arf. The market for everything seems to be in the crapper.

I would say that's a good price, especially with blades and spares plus the battery trays.

but chuck is right, the market isn't that great right now

Used helis do usually run at 40% of new price here in norway.

So for the most part its way more fun to just use it yourselfe and have fun and write it off if you smash it good

Thanks for the info guys, it seems these helis are just not known well enough. I can't count how many times I was asked what sort of heli this was on funflys etc. when it was sitting on the table.
Back a few years ago I was still flying the fusion 50 lots of folks were selling this was when the part availability started to go downhill and I bought up 3-4 full airframes with spares for cheap I could keep flying for over a year with parts out of those. I sort of hoped that maybe if not as a full frame, but the MD6 could still be valuable for parts for someone who flies MD6 so we'll see. If it does not move I might post it up completely broken up.

Parts for the MD aren't going anywhere

nah I know Matt sorry I was not trying to draw a similarity between how the fusion finished and the MD :-)
