  • Whatever Happened to BeastX

    Anyone any ideas or inside knowledge, they seem to have fell off the face of the earth. I've emailed them but with no reply several times and the forum has gone, what gives?

            I know it's not BeastX exactly, but there's a thread on HF about a new firmware coming out for the AR7200BX with a nitro governor ... One of the reasons I'm looking more at Vortex is because of the active development it has. BeastX does otherwise seem to have stagnated ...

                  Can we keep it to BeastX please, I know the Vortex is awesome

                  Read the post on the governor and it does seem as if Freakware have sold out.

                    How could they have kept going anyway? Knock off copies of their product are being sold for £20 etc. They wouldn't be able to sell them at that price.

                          Call me cynical as well, but I'd love to see the terms of the license to Spektrum ...

                            I have to say I'm surprised if that's the case the beast x had/has credibility in the hobby. There are people that will say 'y' system is better but how many have you heard anyone say 'it's shit' ? ?

                            Even now it's still commanding £80 second hand so it still has legs

                              For me mate the number one. Feels right except the tail, which even Duncan reckons is its nemesis. He reckons the cyclics are one of the best.
