New nitro helis on market??

[j2tgw]

Hi as anybody heard through the grape vine about any new nitro helis being developed

Or due to come on the market ?

I fancy something new !!

Align ...Obviously , you can even add a MAJ direct to swash conversion , based I believe on the 700E ? (not 100% on that though)
but if you fancy somthing different there is a rumour SAB are doing a nitro for 2016..... I have personally seen the NGX conversion on a 700 comp to Nitro and it was cool the Synergy N7 is also nice.... Gaui NX7?
But whilst every one turns to a nitro in the winter the vast majority of kits sold are electric, couple that with the invasion of quads and FPV I really don't see anything new coming along.....
Certainly nothing I have heard of except the SAB thing.......

This is the RMJ V3 Trex 700 conversion which I've been flying for a while now and brings direct to swash servo layout to the Align nitro. You can convert an electric DFC by adding all the nitro running gear or the best way is from a nitro pro with all the latest bits and just buy the electric DFC bearing blocks, superb heli.

I know it's not standard and not new to the market but the Raptor e700(n) RMJ or NGX converted to nitro is the best heli I've flown.

I agree with Rachel can't see anything new coming to the market. There really are only a couple of players these days when it comes to nitro and they tick the box with their one offering.

Whatever happpened to the rmj designs direct to swash parts/kits, i was looking out for this but it never appeared for sale on their website?

I am not sure if it will make it to the streets, and if it does if it will be supported in the UK. The Evolution (Alees Rush) Katana nitro is rumored to be out in the spring...

Very surprisingly there just wasn't any interest in the conversion so it got shelved but not before I got 6x frames first though!

It never made it on there and the initial kits were pre sold through pm's. A second batch didn't get ordered however if there's enough Intrest that can change just pm me. Spares aren't a problem. I know the people that have them (not just George ;-) are very pleaswd with them.

TSA will soon be releasing updated nitro models. Likely a 700 and 600.

The ALeeS (Evolution) 700 Nitro will be a fantastic bit of kit. The 700 Rush I have is top quality engineering (minus the OWB in the very early builds). It's such a shame few people over here seem to favour it - everyone has gone align mad again!

But can you blame them, reasonably priced, availability, spares in every HS and Tescos. Just try to get spares for Alees, Synergy and the rest of the highbrow helis. It's not happening Harry, if you're serious about flying week in week out unfortunately the choice is limited

Yeah I totally agree mate. It wasn't an attack at align, they are excellent tick all boxes models. I haven't had an Align in ages and would happily get a new 700N if time, space and money would allow. Sad fact is that I don't fly anything that I currently have as it is Since Summer I think I've had one flight and that was at work over Xmas on the school yard so I could try and persuade the boss to get into the hobby.

And don't get me started on parts availability... just look at the three models I have to see my frustration

[waveydavey]

I did look at the sig, but then again if you don't need spares then they're all great models

[French Paul]

As mentioned above, fpv racing seems to be the demand right now but....
There's already a great lineup of nitros available,obviously the strongest have survived hard times due to making their spares available to us and their kits are all superb value for money.

We've got

Gaui nx7 and nx4
Align 600n and 700n
synergy n5 and n7

It would be great to see more but is it necessary with all of the above??
