    Seems a fair deal, I sold mine not so long back completely upgraded with 401 gyro and spectrum rx for £175 no radio or lipo's so its in the right ball park.

    Thier great little heli's, never had a problem with mine and flew sweet as a nut and good flight times as its fairly light and only sold it to fund buying a 450 pro.

    The only thing I didn't like were the small ball links, I changed them all out for trex ones.

        Agreed. Been there done that. Spent £160 on an ARK 400 a couple of years ago on ebay, was an absolute piece of sh*t.

        I would only ever buy new, from here or BMFA classifieds. The mini titans come up quite frequently on the BMFA too.

          No problem with e-bay, with items like helis I would buy items within traveling distance only, pay cash on collection and if not as described walk away.
          Both my Raptors were bought this way and I am very happy with them.

            fleabay can be good ...!!!
            Its all down to the honesty of the seller ..but dont call everyone BAD and blancket ebay with DONT BUY
            It can really be great if you get a honest seller!

            My tip : Contact Seller ask for tel number and talk to the guy ./..
            This always worked for me ..Disshonest people will not like to talk to you in person before ripping you off
            Just my2cent of course
            --EVO50
            --QoJ8
            and ONLY Spektrum 2.4GHz for me

              I have had both good and bad heli's from the bay, so my advice would be to use caution, and unless you know the seller or can view the heli there's every chance it won't be in the condition you're expecting.

                HI.I have had one concept vr 46 one nexus 30ss one rapter 30 one kalt baron 30 all off ebay used from different sellers and every one of them turned out to be spot on but it is a gamble.If its not as described and you pay with paypal you should have some protection yes its better if you can see it first.New is nice but we cant all afford it and it may depend where you live as to whether good used helis are easy to come by.I know they are not round here.I say if the price is right then go for it.
