Well I got the principle buy one and buy good, so far is the v bar from mikado then!?

Wait until later in the month and look at the combined offering from Spectrum and BeastX if you've got up to 200. Obviously consider the V bar if as Ben says you've got more than £200

I do hare an A9 tx and Hitec rx, so it doesn't really mater for me the spectrum. But I'm wondering if the v bar is the top, because I saw I video on the tube that is slow compared to 3gx. Is that true?

I run beast x with my aurora 9 & found it great, have just got hold of a 3gx to put on my second fusion 50

But from what I have heard so many times vbar is the daddy

The problem with quoted figures are that they sound impressive but unfortunately your noodle and thumbs can't process at the same speeds so a bit pointless really. At the end of the day most will say that the V bar is the best, probably the first and hence the most known. Others are catching up as we speak the BeastX, my fbl controller is cheap and does the job. It really does depend on your budget, your flying style and level. Pointless spending best part of £300 for a V bar if £150 worth of BeastX will blow your socks off.

Didn't read your first post about the Aurora, sorry. Speccy no good to you.

Whatever unit you buy, get some decent servos too go with it, these super fast high torque servo really do make a differance too the too how the heli feels a handles...........

I got the ds610 not the best not the worst as well.

£180 for the new Spektrum RX/Beast X unit is a great price,if you wanna spend more go for a V bar.

This beastx spectrum combo can be use as only system as well, will be any conflict with my optima rx

[danch]

Just stick with the standard beastx, no real need for the combo unit with the hitec aurora ;-)

Yeh i was editing that as i saw you have an RX sorted.

IMHO the V Bar is the best but at a price,the stand alone Beast x unit is as near as dammit as good and much cheaper,3gx also works well and is a big step in the right direction for Align.

I've got a couple of BeastX's and since I flashed them up to V3 I can't fault them, I've flown other peoples helis with the full V-Bar and while they did seem slightly more locked in I can't say they were twice as good bearing in mind they're twice the price of the Bx.

I think the V3 beast is well worth a punt!

[LaurenceGough]

Mikado V-Bar no question! Worth saving up for many times over imo.

Second place Beast X, not tried V3 yet but otherwise not even close.
