Probly just the e720 v2 is about to be released

G4.1 and the e820 use pretty much the same parts, slightly different frames and bell cranks , beefed up blade grip posts and a tail case from memory.

Yes the E700 is now TT's 700 size electric. Parts will still be around for the E720 but not kits. It's a shame but people were always complaining about price. There was no way they could do it any cheaper so the solution was the E700.

I for one still have my E720 and will for many years. My favourite Heli.

My favorite heli as well but afraid of crashing it. Usually 2 to 300 every time.

Most of the E820 parts will transfer right over to the E720, with the exception of the boom and TT. The G4.1 Nitro parts should all work I would thing though. Was saddened when I found out they discontinued the 720 as it's truly an awesome heli.

Is there really a market for a E720 when the E700 is out now and cheaper? Before the release of the E700 it made sense but it doesn't now.

The E720 and G4 Nitro are both no longer in production.
The E720 due to the E700 and the Nitro due to demand.

That's good news! I was afraid parts were going to disappear. Most are shared with the E820 but still, nice to hear that support from TT.

I've got 2 TTE620s. Haven't flown them in a long time. All metal head on one that cost a fortune back in the day

E720 is still my favorite helicopter. Too bad that it was priced too high for most customers. I really don’t like the 700 that much.

I agree. E720 with rail 716 is a rocket ship and seems more stable than the e700.
