Agile 3.6 Sneak Peek

[FlyingPhilUK]

I was just about to pull the trigger on the Chase 360, but it seems there have been quite a few problem with QC on this model
- sounds like KDS have over stretched themselves doing both the Chase 360 & the Agile 3.6
- and both have suffered - the Chase 360 with QC issues, and the Agile 3.6 with long delays getting it into production.

However, the 3.6 does look like a nice heli
- has the price been announced yet?
- and any news on availability?

According to this:

- it's due to go into production very soon ...

Bump to this thread
- the Agile 3.6 has been 'coming soon' for so many months, it's getting frustrating!

I agree - I was holding out for a smaller Agile, but that little Goblin is looking better and better. Too bad KDS isn't providing some updates.

Any updates on release....?

This is the Chase 360 debacle all over again. This time I won't get my hopes up and waste my money on a KDS product, ever, again.

... Still waiting on my 360 updated parts.

I never figured out why they would have two helis so similar released around the same time?

I've sent two emails to KDS in the last 3 months inquiring about the 3.6 and a release date, and have yet to receive a response from either one.

Lets hope the parts fit when they turn up

I just got a chase 360. The deal was to go to pass up. There was some minor problems on the build that made thing frustrating to assemble. Lack of instructions or even a notice of where to go for instructions. I also had to elongate the motor mount holes in the side frames. Doing this allowed the mount to sit square on top of frames.
I decided on buying one after flying a friends x3. The x3 is a lot of fun and a good flying machine.
So far only a couple of flights but i am amazed at how stable it is. I cant wait to get some time on the heli to see what i can do with it.
Now if history serves me almost every one of the last helis I bought where discontinued.
So I'm going to try and enjoy heli until I hear otherwise.

Has anyone heard anything else about the Agile 3.6? I have several calls/emails to KDS USA in the last 6 months with zero response. From what I read, they were done with testing, and were moving into the production phase for the 3.6

I suppose it's possible that with the multi-rotor craze, KDS doesn't see it financially viable to offer two 360 size machines, but I wish I'd at least get an answer.

Can anyone comment?

I wonder if the new tail for the Chase is simply the 3.6 tail. That would make sense.
