| of course the r&d would be expensive, but they dont need to produce eleventy billion of them, from this post and several others like it.. there IS interest in such a kit.
im just saying its not a valid point to say its going to cost the same as a 90 size coversion as a reason not make it.. because some people WANT it, and WOULD pay for it even after that was said.
many many people enjoy 50 size helis, sure the 90 is king of the hill, but that doesnt mean it should get all the love and attention(well from a money making stand point it does ). its not like there isnt already c/f frames available.. but its obvious that people would like one from CX considering the ASTRONOMCIAL work they did from the freya base.

first off, if the R&D is expensive, then they WANT to sell lots of
them so the cost is spread over many units.
Just because a couple of people have expressed interest, that doesn't
mean it's economically viable.
I'm sure the cost would be comparable to a 90 but the market will
only bear so much. Recall the YS50. They're making nothing on
them and they have limited production resources so why would they
devote those resources to making LESS money?
How well is that KSJ CF frame selling by the way?
So how many people are going to buy a $369 machine and then a
400+ conversion for it?
It'll be interesting to see how machines like the Lepton and
Mini-Joker sell since they are in a similar market. |
