Looking to convert my T-rex 700N to flybarless, Sk540 or Vbar

[Rotorhead]

I've narrowed my choice down to the V bar Silverline, and the Skookum SK540, it will be going in the nitro version of the T-rex 700, so engine vibration performance is a variable in this...

Anyone here flown both, and I'd like to hear especially from anyone who's flown both on a nitro, and doubly especially if on the same nitro.

I'm not after a fanboy fight, so if you've not flown both please say you've not in your post, I'm after a genuine comparison, but still welcome your post.

Cheers

Just my two'penneth but imo the best anti vibration gyro is the MSH Brain/Icon by far

I guess not many people have had both systems then.

I haven't flown both systems but am using a full-size blueline on my 700. The inherent nitro vibes have not presented any problem and assuming that silverline has even better anti-vibe performance I would assume it could only be better. I'm also using the vbar gov on stock settings, pretty much (which apparently were tested using an OS91) and it performs well.

I've flown vbar blue and silverline and sk540 on nitro. I had alot of trouble with the blueline. But only I. High tail stress point and it blew out on me constantly. Changed to silverline no problem since.

To be honest if both are setup the way you like them there is not a huge amount of difference between the vbar San sk both work extremely well. I think you'll probably be happy with either.

Cheers Sesame, I'm leaning towards the Vbar SL, I just thought that the Sk540 was worth consideration, afterall Skookum have a very good reputation with their 720.

i've not flown either but the older 2 axis skookum sk360 flies very well even with lower head speeds and slowish servos

I have flown both, and for me it was the vbar between the 2, have you not considered the Spartan vortex, I flew one with crappy cyclics and the vortex rocked

Bloke at the field has just moved his 700n from Vbars to Skookum and seems happy.

Never used them myself but they look great. 720 and GPS for me, if I had over £700 to spend on a FBL
