Sounds good, where did you get the Fu bar from?

It's a Hobbyking product:

Mini FU-BAR V5.3.4 3-Axis Flybarless Helicopter Control System

My Fu bar has just arrived,great service again from Hobbyking,cant do much with it over the weekend as i am not with my laptop or heli i want to use it on but will fit it over next week to test next weekend

Quality looks spot on

Waiting for mine to arrive. Can't wait to try it on my 450.

I powered mine up,it works with 5.3.4 but not with 5.3.4b which tries to connect to Mikado which rejects it obviously.

Remember remember,the signal lead is to the top unlike the mini v which has negative to the top,not that youll hurt it but it'll work better

Unit comes with futaba style connectors on the cables, and printed on the connectors is where they need to go, very difficult to c0ck it up

[ChrisB]

Didnt look at those,i just powered it up from a nimh to make it for now but yes you are correct

I will be using spektrum sats so dont ever use the link cables supplied.

I flew the FuBar today on my 450... Unbelievably good! 100 times better than the Spektrum Beastx. I am not a great 3d flyer so I got a really good pilot to give it a go. He flies only VBar on all his Helis and said that there was no difference...just ordered another 2!

Wow, it's that good?
I have just ordered one to see what all the fuss is about!
I'm now going to convert my raptor to FBL.

Just powered for the first time the fubar. It looks very promising. I cant wait to test it on my 450 as this is the only neglected heli on the fleet at the moment. She will fly again...
