  • help to choose fbl system

    hi guys i am sure you have seen 100s of topics about this but its just soo hard to choose between VBAR and the new beastx with the built in 7200

    i have only been doing the hobby 4 month but fancy a nitro so i am getting the new outrage velocity n2 :P
    but i am not sure witch one to choose

    vbar i like the look of it with the look light and blue colour i also really like the governor feature that is built in and that you only need to ad 2 satellites but i dont know alot about fbls as i have just started to look into it i also like the look of the beastx but no noting about it apart from the got the built in rx :\ can you guys help me choose D:
    i have priced both systems up

    vbar full size = 270
    satellites = about 50
    and gov sensor = about 10
    so its quite expensive coming in at 330 pound

    beast x = 175
    1 x satellite =25
    and the new thunder tiger governor =65

    so what are your opinions on the 2 and witch is better on a nitro heli and would vbar be worth the extra money

    arnt sure if this matters but i will be using the gryphon extreme heli with the with the auto booster


    thanks liam

      V-Bar IMO - I just love the way it flys - couldn't ask for more.

        It really has been done to death hence the lack of replys.

        Me, I'm a vbar man but chose which fits your budget and you will not be dissapointed is the best advice I can give.

          ahha i know theres just loads of threads and i did not see one talking about if one works better on a nitro and one with bulleted points stating that actual pros and cons so just thought i would ask or it just may be me that has not looked hard enough :P and am not concerned about a budget i just want the best product that will work best for my helicopter

            Pays your money, takes your choice

            They all seem pretty good, so the choice is really up to you.

            If going BeastX, stick an Align gov on it. £65 is a joke.

              If your not bothered about cost then it would have to be vbar .. I dont fly fbl but that would be my preferred choice

                  Don't forget the 30 quid to update v bar to pro to use governor feature so 360 quid also as far as I am aware beast x with 7200 built in is already full range so no satellite needed but the ports there if you want to add it for a third rx.

                    Not worth it imo. I have an Align gov without a sensor here if you want it (sensors are £6).

                    You know anyone with an FBL system you could have a go on?

                    If opting for the BeastX, you may aswell wait until the AR7200BX is out in January

                        Just cover postage and it yours.

                        I've heard/read good things about BeastX v3, and looks good value for money. Hoped to have a go on one today, but the doughnut stuffed it in!..Doh

                        ...I also use Vbars.

                            ive got 3 machines,1 with 3g,1 with beastx and 1 with vbar,im no3d pilot,not by a long shot,most of my flying is loops,stall turns,fff and just starting to get my head around inverted,they all do the job for me and im happy with all of them,but even with my level of flying and my 1year experiance in the hobby the vbar definatly has the edge,if money no object id go for vbar
