Most vibration tolerant FBL system ???

[Skipper Billy]

After a break of 3 years from helis I have dusted off my 700 Helibug and have decided to convert it to FBL before getting back in the air.

What would you recommend as a FBL system on a shaky, RF noisy heli ??? Its all well balanced but a single cylinder motor vibrates - period !

I had a Spektrum AR7200BX on a 450 before my 'enforced break' but I guess its not man enough for a 700 gasser ??

Thanks in advance.

I've found the silverline vbar to be really good on the vibe resistance - vibes just dont seem to bother it at all. I believe the spartan VX1N is also good in this department but not tried one myself to say.

I beiev most of the latest gen fbl units have the same sensors and tolerance to vibes? The first fbl gassers I heard of Bavarian Demon - which would be my choice if the budget allowed.. otherwise I'd probably go with a Brain for economy...

Silverline Vbar, Spartan Vortex, Futaba CGY750 are all very very good at handling vibration.

MSH Brain/Ikon is decent too.

Pretty much the newer the sensor, the better the vibration handling.

The skookum 540 has dual banks of pin point sensors. 1 for redundancy should you have horrendous vibes.

I had a beastx on my helibug 700 with the rjx head with no problems but use skookums now.

I've found my CGY750 to be the best, followed closely by VBar Silverline. BeastX wasn't great however (I've had two of each unit on different models, nitro and electric). Have tried various pads on each with consistent results.

The skookum 540 does not have pinpoint sensors. The skookum 720 has poinpoint and only one set of them.

I have found the SK540 too be totally immune too vibes and you also get the best Guvnor out there thrown in...

Thanks guys.

Looks like they have all improved over time.

+1 Skookum SK540 good vibration resistance, excellent governor

Ive used Beast X on gassers withiout any issues when using 3M mounting tape

Would the Skookum 540 governor work with a gasser?? I currently have a StatorGator and Futaba GV1 but would love to get rid of them both!!

I don't know if it would work on a gasser I fly electric sometimes nitro and I've tried it on both and in my opinion it performs very well

Yes it will. Working very well on the nx4 gasser.
