Depends on your setup really, are you already flying electric or nitro or both?

[f15b]

hi paul
the only elec i have is a mini titan and nitro 600 3g fbl and a rator 50 titan

[kev bell]

had nitro and now all electric, if you have the chargers and are short of time & just wont to turn up and fly electric is the way. If you don't have the power supplies/chargers and like tinkering nitro is still a good option

hi kev
power supplies and chargers not a prob being flying planks for 26yrs and heli for about 8yrs

l love the 600 i just want something a bit bigger

its just a have never had lipos as big as 700e uses so this is were i need advice if i go the elec way

and not having to mess about with engine sounds good

Try a bit electric of you already have decent size nitros.

I had the N, now have the E; all personal preference though.

[paul35]

It would be a 700n if i was you, your already setup for nitro's

[kev bell]

cannot help on which make of lipos (asking the same question myself) but should add with the electric there are more flying sites around (less noise) electric does appear to be getting more developed nitro has gone as far as it can imo before it defeats the best thing it has going for it, flight times

thanks all

kev where do u fly in carlisle ?

[kev bell]

there's a few of us fly at a local rugby club field, a local farmers land and a village hall during the bad weather.

[f15b]

[kev bell]

[f15b]

kev if u find out what lipos to use let me know

Hi Andy,

If your are going to buy new then it is really a matter of personnel choice.However if your looking at used then I would say go nitro as you can get some good deals. Electric is in 'vogue' for most people right now and comanding top used prices.
Just my thoughts and advice.
Hope this helps alittle?

Regards,

Mark.

heres my advice nitros are great fun, but more agro electric is obviously plug in and fly.

The electric will pretty much eat a nitro for breakfast performance wise and can be further boostted with mega motor such as KDE,Scorpion ETC.

The bad bit is a the packs cost a fair bit to collect.

If it were me an electric is definatley the way foward you have some nitros you will not look back if you buy a 700e V2 that I promise!

And if your feeling like spending a few take a look at my setup in the sig it absoloutly rocks!!!! the align combo is no comparison!
