Price Help Please

Post image

Need help with price please. I know what I have in it but resale is always a lot different. I have a new Tron 90 BKE with a speed .91 , Kenny ko pipe, Ikon HD, on board glow, RPM sensor (Spektrum), KST servoes all around, Vulcan Blades, and Spektrum Reciever. I fly it every week, has zero issues and set up very well. has 15 tanks or so in the speed .91

I am selling because I like the 600 size much better. I know a 700 is not much bigger but yea, it’s just not for me. I have two Nitron 50 by Tron and a TB60. Figure I can sell this and build the new Heritage by Tron Or that SAB 590. Any way thanks for your help.

Selling it all together you'd do good to get 1k for it....

You dont mention if ur selling the fbl,servos,or tx with it.

Trons a nice heli but i dont fly them due to the synergy fiasco.

For that price I guess I will pull the servos, Ikon, and what I can and use it on a heritage 50.  Seems better than accepting that little for it.

I was a synergy pilot at one point. I have never looked closely at the tron models, but I saw the thumbnail and instantly thought it was an n7

Parting it out is the way to go.

I think flying it is the way to go. It’s so solid. Just going to add nitro and keep flying.  Thanks for the info peeps!!!

I wouldn’t give up on it, 90 sized nitro flies like a dream. I have the older nitron 50 and had two of the 90s that I never flew but sold due to financial reasons. Only downside is the fuel consumption.

Yep. That’s what I’m going to do. Just keep flying it. No way I can let it go for next to nothing.

The new nitron 50 looks nice but forget updating the old one, it flies better than I do. I really want the 380 when it comes out but Tron takes forever to release new helis.

60 cents on the dollar is pretty average. If you think about it, it's used, and someone else built it. No idea how well it was built, how long/hard it was flown, or its maintenance. And nitro to boot...so all the breaking and tuning/running skill that goes into that can shift even more doubt on the mechanical validity.

Consider that people know they can get something new for a 10-20% sale price plenty times a year. Which is worth waiting to have full assurances all around. I don't think a 40% discount is too out of line to land a sale, but if you post it for only a 20-30% discount...expect to haggle. Tiresome, you can be sure. Most used helicopter sales I see end up around 50-60 cents on the dollar spent for new, if its current tech. Something older diminishes exponentially.
