iKON Flybarless System with Polarity Protection Feature

Brought forth by MSH - the makers of the 'Brain' - the iKon represents a brand-new leap in flybarless control. Bert Kammerer, in cooperation with MSH, worked tirelessly to fine tune the iKon flybarless controller to excellence. Every aspect of firmware has actually been fine-tuned and enhanced, and in the end, we can say this system just has no equivalent on the marketplace today. The iKon is ready to change everything. Prepare for the iKon - it's ready for you.

Vibration Resistant - Bad Vibes Goodbye.
Simply put, gyros dislike vibration, when a flybarless system is sensitive to vibration, this has a direct influence on flight efficiency. The iKon flybarless system utilizes new vibration dampening technology to separate vibrations and put them in their location. This results in rock solid flight with absolutely nothing however true, direct flight efficiency that you can see and feel.

Simplified Setup - The Wizard is Here.
Nothing is more irritating, frustrating and time consuming than fumbling with handbooks, setup videos and tech aid when it pertains to correct flybarless setup. No more - the wizard takes control. Using a simple to follow and fuss free setup, the iKon takes a simplified technique to flybarless setup, permitting you to invest less time tuning and more time flying - just the way it should be.

Auto Level Innovation - This is It.
That sickening crash can now be put behind you with car level technology. For anybody still finding out the fundamentals, or those pushing new 3D limitations, the car level technology constructed within the iKon will transform the way you fly, permitting you to push the limitations with less threat of crashing. This technology is one of the numerous reasons that make the iKon so special, permitting a healing from any orientation, no matter if the airplane is ideal side up or upside down. Unlike other "bail out" innovations, the iKon "knows" how the airplane is orientated, permitting a right side up recover each time. Even further, with car level technology, the airplane will stay level, permitting those first few training flights to be genuinely memorable - in a great way.

Satellite & S-Bus Ready - It's Your Choice.
Allowing the benefit of satellite technology, the iKon supports Spektrum DSM2 & DSMX satellite receivers, along with S-Bus technology through Futaba. On the Spektrum side, (2) satellite ports are provided for optimum redundancy & path diversity, suited for helicopters 500 sized and higher.

Built in Governor - Set Your Speed & Flight Mode.
Utilizing a transmitter selectable governor, the iKon brings compact flybarless technology to every level of the helicopter, permitting you to call because best rotor speed that suits your style, all at the flip of a switch. Including a selectable (3) switch flight mode program, the iKon allows you to call in your helicopter with totally adjustable flight mode parameters to get the best from every flight. No more supplementary devices required on your device - the iKon handles all of it.

So how does it compare to other devices? (From RCHeli Country Evaluation)

"As the majority of you know most of my flying has actually been on either a BeastX or a V-Bar, so these are the devices I will be straight comparing with the iKON. I will begin off with the BeastX. In my viewpoint, the iKON is way ahead of the BeastX in regards to flying characteristics and the features it offers. Please do not believe I am stating the BeastX is a bad system. It fits, It is easy to setup and will fly excellent ideal our of the box, which is excellent for anybody who wishes to keep it easy of for those just getting started with flybarless. Once you advance enough to the point where you desire more features though, I feel the iKON is a great next option.

Now for the big one, comparing it to my V-Bars. In the end, in my mind I now think about these devices to be.wait for it.equal! In regards to the software application used for programs, the V-Bar is the clear winner, however looking at the flight efficiency and features, the decision becomes far more challenging. When comparing the efficiency in regards to cyclic and tail I would say these devices are so close it is tough to even inform them apart when flying them. They both provide you a very precise locked in feel, and are extremely tunable for all flying styles. Both can be tuned to the point where there are no negative propensities. For people who fly more difficult then me, this argument may not hold true, however this is exactly what I discovered.

Now, when it pertains to features I have to say the iKON is the winner for me. It has an internal governor, which is easy to wire given that there are numerous ports on the unit.not the case with the Mini V-Bar. Due to this I have actually never even used the internal governor on the Mini V-Bar given that it is not worth the electrical wiring disaster this produces. The final thing is the bailout. There is no competitors, as the V-Bar does not have a comparable feature. When you combine all this with the considerably lower cost of the iKON, in my viewpoint, the iKON comes out equivalent if not a little ahead of the V-Bar."
