iKON Flybarless System with Polarity Protection Feature

Brought forth by MSH - the makers of the 'Brain' - the iKon represents a new leap in flybarless control. Bert Kammerer, in cooperation with MSH, worked relentlessly to tweak the iKon flybarless controller to perfection. Every element of firmware has actually been fine-tuned and optimized, and in the end, we can say this system just has no equal on the marketplace today. The iKon is ready to change everything. Prepare for the iKon - it's all set for you.

Vibration Resistant - Bad Vibes Goodbye.
Simply put, gyros hate vibration, when a flybarless system is delicate to vibration, this has a direct influence on flight performance. The iKon flybarless device utilizes brand-new vibration moistening innovation to isolate vibrations and put them in their location. This results in rock solid flight with nothing but true, direct flight performance that you can see and feel.

Simplified Setup - The Wizard is Here.
Nothing is more annoying, aggravating and time consuming than fumbling with handbooks, setup videos and tech aid when it pertains to appropriate flybarless setup. No more - the wizard takes control. Utilizing a simple to follow and fuss complimentary setup, the iKon takes a streamlined method to flybarless setup, enabling you to invest less time tuning and more time flying - just the way it must be.

Car Level Technology - This is It.
That sickening crash can now be put behind you with automobile level innovation. For anybody still discovering the basics, or those pushing brand-new 3D limits, the automobile level innovation constructed within the iKon will revolutionize the way you fly, enabling you to press the limits with less risk of crashing. This innovation is among the multiple factors that make the iKon so unique, enabling a healing from any orientation, no matter if the aircraft is best side up or upside down. Unlike other "bail out" innovations, the iKon "knows" how the aircraft is orientated, enabling a best side up recover each time. Further, with automobile level innovation, the aircraft will stay level, enabling those first couple of training flights to be really unforgettable - in a great way.

Satellite & S-Bus Ready - It's Your Choice.
Allowing the benefit of satellite innovation, the iKon supports Spektrum DSM2 & DSMX satellite receivers, in addition to S-Bus innovation via Futaba. On the Spektrum side, (2) satellite ports are offered for maximum redundancy & path diversity, matched for helicopters 500 sized and higher.

Built in Guv - Set Your Speed & Flight Mode.
Utilizing a transmitter selectable guv, the iKon brings compact flybarless innovation to every level of the helicopter, enabling you to call in that best rotor speed that suits your style, all at the flip of a switch. Integrating a selectable (3) switch flight mode program, the iKon permits you to call in your helicopter with fully adjustable flight mode parameters to obtain the best from every flight. No more supplementary gadgets needed on your device - the iKon handles all of it.

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

"As the majority of you know the majority 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 opinion, the iKON is way ahead of the BeastX in terms of flying attributes and the functions it provides. Please don't think I am saying the BeastX is a bad device. It has its place, It is simple to setup and will fly great best our of the box, which is great for anybody who wishes to keep it simple of for those just getting going with flybarless. Once you advance enough to the point where you desire more functions however, I feel the iKON is a fantastic next choice.

Now for the huge 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 terms of the software utilized for shows, the V-Bar is the clear winner, but looking at the flight performance and functions, the decision becomes a lot more difficult. When comparing the performance in terms of cyclic and tail I would say these devices are so close it is hard to even tell them apart when flying them. They both give you a very precise locked in feel, and are very tunable for all flying styles. Both can be tuned to the point where there are no negative tendencies. For individuals who fly faster then me, this argument might not be true, but this is what I discovered.

Now, when it pertains to functions I have to say the iKON is the winner for me. It has an internal guv, which is simple to wire given that there are numerous ports on the unit.not the case with the Mini V-Bar. Due to this I have never even utilized the internal guv on the Mini V-Bar given that it is unworthy the electrical wiring catastrophe this creates. The last thing is the bailout. There is no competitors, as the V-Bar does not have a similar feature. When you combine all this with the significantly lower rate of the iKON, in my opinion, the iKON comes out equal if not slightly ahead of the V-Bar."
