Well I think I need to clear something up... when I say revisions I mean improvements to make the machine better, not revisions that are necessary to make the machine WORK. I can't get upset if they offer something better later that improves an area, but if they need to revise something to make the helicopter flyable (ie would be unsafe to fly without the revision), then that is unacceptable at such a starting price.

I HIGHLY doubt that this machine would be released with a showstopper bug. Align and JK have way too much riding on it for that. Plus, as stated, the e version has had a chance to be thrashed for testing. I have my Nitro Pro on Pre-Order now and whilst I don't expect it to be perfect, I know it will be a darn nice flying bird.

Since those prices came out, the 600N threads have really slowed down. I was hoping for a break-through kind of price, not $600. It seems I'm not alone.

I will be getting one when they come out. Align, IMO, is going to revolutionize the 50 size world with this machine.

$600 isn't bad at all, most people add a couple hundred making the Raptor worth a damn, and still don't ave any where near the heli the 600n is. The lower model is priced competitively with the plastic fantastics, and still has more features.

Anyone care to compare the T600N CF to the Airskipper-50? similar cost and features? though I've never seen either. AS50 looks nice.

The AS does look nice. But for what parts cost, they better be machined out of solid gold. I also saw the new Vibe 50 at Toledo, another gorgeous heli that won't sell because of ridiculous parts pricing.

Our LHS has em on order. He figured they would be much closer to $500 then $600. And that is Canadian dollars so $450 ish? For the full carbon version. I told him that sounded low, but he was pretty sure.

We'll see where the street price lands, but I'd bet they will be very competitive with other good machines. Plus there is always the low end version, wouldn't surprise me to see a 'value' combo similar to the S or SA either.

Probably no chance I can resist.

I was thinking that JR and MA will have to get competitive with their spares pricing especially if they want to compete against the T600N.

So here is a question for those that have taken a close look at the T600N - what are the similarities to the Synergy? Differences? Could this have been called the N5?

Mmm, I wouldn't have called it an N5. It looks more like a cross between the Stratus and Aurora in my opinion. Servo layout is similar to Stratus and control system is similar to Aurora. The Synergy has all of its servos up on top. I would say that the lower frames do resemble the Synergy though, but not much... just MO

Well...I just preordered mine from Ricks.

Now I have to go through the many nights deciding what I want to put in it.
