iKON iKON2 HD Flybarless System with Integrated Bluetooth Module - Mi

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 perfection. Every aspect of firmware has been fine-tuned and enhanced, and in the end, we can say this system merely has no equal on the market today. The iKon is ready to change everything. Get ready for the iKon - it's ready for you.

Vibration Resistant - Bad Vibes Goodbye.
Simply put, gyros dislike vibration, and when a flybarless system is delicate to vibration, this has a direct effect on flight efficiency. The iKon flybarless device makes use of new vibration dampening innovation to isolate vibrations and put them in their place. This leads to rock strong flight with nothing however true, direct flight efficiency that you can see and feel.

Streamlined Setup - The Wizard is Here.
Nothing is more irritating, frustrating and time consuming than fumbling with manuals, setup videos and tech aid when it comes to proper flybarless setup. No more - the wizard takes control. Making use of an easy to follow and fuss totally free setup, the iKon takes a streamlined approach to flybarless setup, allowing you to invest less time tuning and more time flying - simply the method it must be.

Auto Level Innovation - This is It.
That sickening crash can now be put behind you with auto level innovation. For anyone still finding out the essentials, or those pushing new 3D limitations, the auto level innovation developed within the iKon will transform the method you fly, allowing you to push the limitations with less danger of crashing. This innovation is among the multiple factors that make the iKon so unique, allowing a recovery from any orientation, no matter if the aircraft is best side up or upside down. Unlike other "bail out" technologies, the iKon "knows" how the aircraft is orientated, allowing a best side up recuperate every time. Further, with auto level innovation, the aircraft will stay level, allowing those first few training flights to be genuinely unforgettable - in a good way.

Satellite & S-Bus Ready - It's Your Choice.
Allowing the convenience of satellite innovation, the iKon supports Spektrum DSM2 & DSMX satellite receivers, together with S-Bus innovation by means of Futaba. On the Spektrum side, (2) satellite ports are offered for maximum redundancy & path diversity, fit for helicopters 500 sized and higher.

Integrated in Guv - Set Your Speed & Flight Mode.
Utilizing a transmitter selectable guv, the iKon brings compact flybarless innovation to every level of the helicopter, allowing you to dial in that ideal rotor speed that matches your design, all at the flip of a switch. Including a selectable (3) switch flight mode program, the iKon allows you to dial in your helicopter with fully adjustable flight mode parameters to obtain the very best from every flight. No more supplementary gadgets needed on your machine - the iKon handles all of it.

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

"As the majority of you understand the majority of my flying has 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 method ahead of the BeastX in terms of flying qualities and the functions it offers. Please don't believe I am saying the BeastX is a bad device. It fits, It is easy to setup and will fly terrific best our of the box, which is terrific for anyone who wants to keep it basic of for those simply getting going with flybarless. When you advance enough to the point where you desire more functions though, I feel the iKON is a fantastic next option.

Now for the big one, comparing it to my V-Bars. In the end, in my mind I now consider these devices to be.wait for it.equal! In terms of the software application used for shows, the V-Bar is the clear winner, however taking a look at the flight efficiency and functions, the decision ends up being far more hard. When comparing the efficiency in terms of cyclic and tail I would say these devices are so close it is tough to even tell them apart when flying them. They both give you a very precise locked in feel, and are extremely tunable for all flying designs. Both can be tuned to the point where there are no unfavorable tendencies. For individuals who fly more difficult then me, this argument might not be true, however this is exactly what I discovered.

Now, when it comes to functions I have to say the iKON is the winner for me. It has an internal guv, which is easy to wire since there are so many ports on the unit.not the case with the Mini V-Bar. Due to this I have never even used the internal guv on the Mini V-Bar since it is not worth the wiring disaster this produces. The final thing is the bailout. There is no competition, as the V-Bar does not have a similar function. When you combine all of this with the considerably lower price of the iKON, in my opinion, the iKON comes out equal if not slightly ahead of the V-Bar."
