    No more helicommand :-(

    Looks like robbe have discontinued the helicommand and re-branded it, to consider with the new firmware release. Pricing looks to be the same as the current units, I was hoping for a small price drop.

    just wondering if they will arrive before the goblin 500s?

      They are the same units (apart from the fixed wing one). However I really dislike the new branding. Stupid name, colour and advertising.

          There's been a few silly slogans and brands in the RC heli world but I really think 'Bavarian Demon' takes the biscuit. First we had Beasts, then Goblins and now Bavarian Demons. Where will it all end?

            It looks like a good bit of kit (as were the previous units) but the branding, colours and wording don't do it any justice at all IMO. Make it look cheap and rubbish which is a shame!

              It is a shame because not only is the unit one of the best fbl controllers available (if not the best) but also the company is extremely helpful and its customer service is second to none.

              Now if the demon thing on the unit doesnt deter a buyer the idea of going to the field and when asked 'what fbl does that heli have' saying 'a bavarian demon 3sx' surely will imo .

                Well I agree... the name is dreadful and I wish they hadn't done it. I will still call them by their old names until that becomes impossible to continue to do... I might even write to them and express my views... politely of course... they are good guys even if they have rubbish marketing people!

                  They are trying to move there branding with the current trends. But as there products are well established and known, it's something they need not have to do.

                  I was hoping for new firmware and a price reduction :-(

                    Is this for real?

                      ...Just to add, I'm sure i've seen that demon man on the side of the condom machines in club toilets :-/


                      As said Robbe / Helicommand have a good brand anyway, all they needed do was build on that.

                          Probably a bit before most people's time but this discussion reminded me of this great class British comedy
