confirmed price of UK T700 yet?????

[ChrisB]

Flying Hobby emailed saying they will beat the USD retail price so it will be just under 400 quid with 30 quid postage

someone told me things from HK are now liable for VAT (always have been but they usually got through) so it could well be 430 plus vat which is more or less what it is here.

cheers

Very possible i reckon,luckily my LHS will discount everything by 10% so on a UK retail of £500 it would be £450 anyway so not worth the risk of importing in this instance

Is that just to you or all his customers Chris
Due to the absence of anything else competitive at this price in the market I think I am going to have to bite the bullet & stay with Align Helicopters for my 90 size flying.
Just need to shift the sport & the 8s Knight 3d & I can afford one.

[Smoothound]

So the Knight 3DE is going as well? That didn't last long

[LipolyGone]

My flying needs a 90 something has to give & this is the heli I fly the least.

He discounts all regulars and club members by 10% (Mr Models).

Thats 3DE will feel unloved seeing as i shifted it on and now you are as well LOL

[LipolyGone]

I expect it is already feeling unloved as I just dont fly it at all.

Hey All,

Some extra info for you...Weighed my 700n last night at 4.6kg without fuel and this is with every gadget I can put on it. Also, with a Hatori 939 and an OS91 SZ the sound level at 7m (following the BMFA testing rules) is 79-80db. Way below the 82db limit so no worries about noise complaints with this one...

Ade your overreacting or you read my message wrong.

I never called Trev a liar or refuted anything in his post, I simply asked if this was the usual Align quality. It seems he has one in his hands already so naturally I asked him.

I don't like Aligns current offerings in the 50 class and wondered if they pulled out a decent 90.

I don't particularly like the Compass Knight 3D but don't call them a Compass nail on an internet forum as others do like and recommend them.

Guess I need to get in touch with my sensitive feminine side.
