    Default FBL controller on 250 size heli

    Hi all, Just wondered if there was any advantage of 3GX over Beastx on this size heli or vice versa? Or does size not matter here and down to personal preference? Anyone fly trex 250 with 3GX?

    A BeastX is more 'tried and tested' imo.

    Most of what I've seen BeastX works well on Gaui 200's

    Your tail problem sounds like you need to setup better in non heading hold. Know for bad tail if that's not done. Because the mechanical setup helps gyro big time.

    I use 3 beastx so far and see Ern's 250 go.
    That's the neat setup with out the receiver.
    I know both of us use a good tail servo and the bigger tail blades

    I don't have a problem with my tail other than what I mentioned in my previous post (his tail is rock solid compared to mine) got mine setup nice not the perfect of tails but handles all the 3D
