  • Fecked Off - Thunder Tiger

    Took delivery of my E700, got it mostly built up ready to put servo's in & I have JR servo's, thought no problem I'll get the JR adapters….feck,
    can't find them anywhere, so if anyone has any suggestions where I can source them or other idea's I'm welcoming them as I have a grounded E700 until I find stock

    Not a good play by TT,
    after selling so many kits, they should have realised that they needed to put some decent quantity of spares out there too...

    I am also grounded due to a stupid pitch slider bushing after an eventful maiden with a messed up setup on the Vbar I ended up with the need for a pitch slider bushing ( also updated metal slider) and new tail blades.

    no UK stock for most of the parts makes me wonder if it was a wise choice for my first 700 machine.
    the main dealers seem to have a shipment coming next week, lets hope that TT used some comon sense in the spares production.

      Yup got to agree, presumed being TT that spares wouldn't be an issue but how wrong, the servo setup is a great idea & looks really easy.

        fingers crossed,
        after all it is the most reasonably priced 700 out there and the quality is way above the price tag,
        if the spare parts don't flow properly to the UK in the next couple of months I guess they will have many unhappy customers.

        my setup will be more than happy to jump into another 700 frame

              I wouldn't think twice if you have the 610's available,

              saw Mattie flying an Agile 7.2 with those servos and it was Bonkers

                Could be the answer then as I'm too impatient to sit round doing nothing till TT sort out supplies

                  Have you checked the normal places as everyone was saying spares were sorted now I thought??

                  Why not go to Europe, won't be no more, postage might be a tad more and you have to wait 1 or 2 days but thats what I would do

                    The TT 50 is the same part, I've just fitted one as I think the plastic one is rubbish. I can't find any in stock in the UK on the Feret but they're in stock in the states, if you order now you'll have it next week

                        Found somewhere in Germany so will step away from the Raptor & just start on the Logo 600

                        I need to be building something so was getting edgy…
