    From what I have seen, BeastX is easier to setup, no PC required to fine tune it and it pretty much will work well from the box. The 3GX may need to be fine tuned and require many more flights to get it perfected. I still think the cyclic on the 3GX felt a little oversensitive but could have been a setup issue. My money would be on BeastX which also has V3 firmware out very soon.

      I had beast when it first came out and it was really easy to set up (with a long phone call to asid)it flew realy well but my flying let it down. The only thing swaying me towards 3gx is no rx required saving on messy wiring jobs.

        I'll let you know when I get my N5C up and running with the 3GX- I would have gone for Beast X on this too but really wanted to try a lower box count. The PC interface on the 3GX is a bit clunky so far and the lead they give you to connect the 3GX to the computer is only about 10cm long. The Beast X set up is easy as long as you follow the recipe. I'm still running BeastX version 1 on my 700, V2 on my Velo.

          I think it's only fair for people who have flown both systems to vote in the poll,
          My choice would be Beastx as i know how it flies, also i know how good/not Align electronics are.
          But till i've flown the align system i'll not vote

            I voted 3GX my reasoning is i think that has the better hardware due to Spektrum sat connectivity and inbuilt gov,but the Beast i think may have better software only just.

            With firmware upgrades for both due anytime soon this could change things,but either way i think both systems are excellent quality.

            I have now flown both extensively.

              I would vote BeastX but it would be a pointless, and bias vote as I have never used the 3G nor the 3GX

                I think it's to early to decide but once I get this unit set up correctly on the trex 500, then I will do a back to back with Pgkevet 500 with the beastx.
