thanks for the reply, but can u explain why?

Basically the 3GX, BeastX, Vbar etc are all FBL controllers - their only job is to emulate a Flybar. They will not do anything to stabilise the heli like a Flymentor.

If you put a 3GX on a Flybarred heli, then it will try to emulate the flybar, while at the same time the real flybar will also be doing it's job. This will confuse the FBL controller, and make it uncontrollable instead of stabilising the heli like you want it to.

The Flymentor is a rip off of the HeliCommand 3D, but it does its job in stabilising a Flybarred heli. A better choice (although I've never tried it) would be a Spartan AP2000i. I think this works on Flybarred helis, and you are also supporting a UK company not a chinese knock off .

well, i do learn something here, thanks a lot sir. maybe i'll just keep my 3gx for my scale heli. I'm planning to put 5bladed head on it.

Hey.

Very soon the 3GX will provide a more stable platform with the addition of GPS position hold and return to base functionality, the addon unit is coming which will hold the heli in a fixed position.
But for now, ad above it is just a flybarless controller to replace the flybar.
