Fair Price for an E7
« on: August 01, 2015, 08:28:08 PM »
Hello,

My 3rd big size heli will definitely be a Synergy. Would want to know if a brand new, no electronics and blades, Synergy E6 / E7 is fairly priced at $475.00? I saw one up for grabs.  If so, that'll leave me a lot of room for well reputed electronics.

Also, when will the 766 be available in CA and how much?

Thanks.

Mike,

 Does this machine have the TT conversion, or am I to assume if it is In fact one of the early production Belted Tail? If it's the TT tail version, I would say your in the neighborhood, if it is a Belt drive, I would most likely offer less. Just my opinion though. I would have to see the machine to make a better call.  It honestly all depends how bad the seller wants to part with it, a lot of us me included, have made absolutely stupid cheap deals on Helis , some BNF and others needing electronics, etc, etc. you never know.. Keep in mind, we have a new machine that will be released before you know it, and that's were I would put my money.. You will see the market get inundated with E7's and it will be hard to move them and get a fair price. (My advice, if you can hold out for the 766, it will be well worth it. And if not you will still enjoy the E7..
As far as when will the 766 be available and Price point? That is still very much in the works and Matt will be the one to share that Intel soon.

That seems steep for a belt, you can buy a new in box TT kit for 460$ on the Ebay. If its a belt, and you end up buying let me know! Iv got a few spare parts for belt models I cant seem to give away!

Gents,

I cannot thank you enough for your opinions.

Mr. K, yes it goes with the TT conversion and I've written the merchant, he says apart from the goodies coming from an opened box, it's all brand new.

Dan, just like me, your radar seems to have picked up the same item I was looking at on eBay, $460 + $15 shipping.
