  • What gyro are you all using?

    Hi All,

    Just wondered what gyro's you are all using?

    I use the CSM 720 since early 2008 and have never looked back

      five spartan 760's now but had four 720's in past, seven 601's, three 611's, csm 560, csm 560 micro and 401.

      cheers

      edit: also had one of the 401 ebay knock offs to see how bad they really were. looks like a mini 401. they are that bad.

                I have x2 Futaba 601 and 9251 tail servo

                They do a good enough job for me, I don't need the greatest and latest.

                  Futaba GY502/S9253 and 4 x GY401/s9254 in my models.
                  No need for me to have anything else but a 401 in my models as my skills dont surpass it yet
                  Maybe when they do ill start buying better gyros. Untill then im happy with the ease of setup and performance of my 401's.

                            To be honest if you are buying at UK prices there is no reason to settle for a 401 anymore as a cheap option in my opinion. If you are up for it buying from HK does make the 401 a good buy but not if you are buying here. All IMHO of course

                              hehe, everyone was mentioning how many gyros they actually have, I have 1 for the 600e, 1 for the 600n, 1 for the 500. The other 4 were for flybarless on the 600e and 600n but I've taken that off for now until some development work can happen on it...
