  • gyro trade in

    just been sent this folks.

    anyone thinking of getting rid of their old gyro could look at this.

    basically trade in your old gyro, even a crashed one and get 1/3rd off a quark.

            No its not you can get probably 50% of the value if you sell the 401 on BMFA especially if you get the plastic cased Quark.

            You need to trade in real cheap rate gyros or as they said broken ones worth nothing.

              How much are the Quarks? Have a couple of gyros here, a 401 and an Esky Rate gyro, think they'll take them??

                yes they will take them so long as condition terms are met. the price will depend on the model you want to choose when you trade in.

                  • its a cracking offer
                  • they will get worthless gyros
                  • do the sums - its a direct to the user from spartan not via the retail outlets
                  • they don't need to sell the trade-ins
                  • it needs to be time limited or they will really upset he retailers
                  • gets the product out in the field and if its good it will create demand
                  • perhaps they have some over production?
                  • Depresses the value of other gyros perhaps?

                  Trade in a 401? don't be daft - sell the 401 for £50+ its still a very good gyro for anyone, especially a beginner. 1/3 off a quark is not £50.

                      Could be a use for an old piece of history I still have laying around - a Futaba FP-G152 mechanical rate gyro

                          Will a V bar count as a trade in?

                            technically they will take gyros that don't work, i guess that covers a vbar...OHHHH.....handbags out...lol.
