Damn you all!!

[PsiLo]

I curse ye and send thee to the pit of hell for eternal damnation!!

Why couldn't you all just keep quiet about the BeastX? Now with so many good reports I have just pushed the button on the MicroBeast, USB lead and RJX head for my 500. It had better be worth it!

This is exactly the set-up I've had on my 500 for over a month now, and in short, it's bloody brilliant. Absolutely, no problems of any kind. It just works !!

Tuck the USB lead away for now as you wont need it until firmware updates are available in the near future. Thats what I've done with mine.

I can see why you pressed the buy it now button. With nothing but good reports of its performance its very tempting.

Ive just had a look at FL and the beast is priced at £149 but is out of stock of course. I was expecting it to cost a lot more than this and I now find my self thinking that it would be worth just buying one of these units for any new heli build flybarred or FBL.
Based on the reports I have read the the gyro performance of this unit is almost as good as a spartan and the cost difference is not that much.
So by fitting a beastx unit instead of a standard gyro you can run FB (with the addition of a £7 cable to run gyro only) or FBL or convert at a later stage.
This seems like a no-brainer to me - is there something I am fundamentaly missing here or is it really that simple.

It is that simple. I think the gyro although not as customisable as say my 720, really works for me out of the box. I find the piro rate enough, the stops really good, you can change this but I like the acceleration, it suits my flying.
