To be fair, I said 700 class helis.
The Goblin is a bit on the big size for a 700 and the XXTREME is just over the top for me. It is truely an 800 on a massive scale. I believe you can have too much of a good thing!

But you can't deny that the 700 field last year was a very different place to what it is this year. I've never seen so many high quality helis appear in the same class all within a short time frame as I have with the 700's lately.... The Gaui X7, the Synergy E7, The whiplash 90E, The (as yet unreleased I know) Aleesrc Rush 750, the SAB Goblin - need I go on? My point isn't that the Protos 700 can't succeed, I'm sure you'll sell plenty and hell it may even be me buying one of them, my point is it's not going to have an easy ride.

The hobby is growing, and if the bubble bursts, the top brands will still be standing.

Composite plastic can be stronger and lighter than alum you know... Take a hit and bounce back in to shape, not stay bent.

I have a feeling that the Protos 700 will be the lightest in its class and be the cheapest to repair.

They are great but they aren't magic, and the alternatives (some of which I mentioned above) are very high quality too - we aren't comparing a Protos to a T-Rex 500 here. Look, I don't want to rain on anyone's parade and obviously there's going to be a lot of excitement over the new Protos, I've made the point I wanted to and so any further posts on the issue would be flogging the proverbial dead horse. It'll be a great heli, of this I'm sure. It'll sell fairly well, of that I am confident too... in the mean time there are a lot of very tempting alternatives in the same class.

I have both size Protos and LOVE both! But, why go straight to the 700 size and will there be anything between them. I would have really loved to see a 550 or 600. I KNOW I'm going to want a P700, but not sure if I'm going to make that jump. I kinda like being able to share packs with my 500's and 600.

I have heard this before from other people but I dont think the market is saturated.
There isnt a single decent 700 available IMHO. I have my hopes up for either the Logo700 or the protos700 but al the rest is just crap to me. So untill a good 700 hits the market I will stick with my logo600 |

Really?! You don't think there's a single decent 700?
Wow... I don't know what to say to that. You're a hard man to please!

A Nitro is a perfect application for a cgy 750. That is the one flybarless controller that really doesn't seem to care about vibrations.
