iKON iKON2 HD Flybarless System with Integrated Bluetooth Module - Mi

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 tirelessly to fine tune the iKon flybarless controller to excellence. Every aspect of firmware has been fine-tuned and optimized, and in the end, we can say this system just has no equal on the marketplace today. The iKon prepares to alter 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 performance. The iKon flybarless system utilizes new vibration dampening technology to isolate vibrations and put them in their place. This results in rock solid flight with absolutely nothing however real, direct flight performance that you can see and feel.

Simplified Setup - The Wizard is Here.
Nothing is more annoying, frustrating and time consuming than fumbling with handbooks, setup videos and tech help when it concerns proper flybarless setup. No more - the wizard takes control. Making use of a simple to follow and fuss totally free setup, the iKon takes a streamlined technique to flybarless setup, allowing you to spend less time tuning and more time flying - just the method it ought to be.

Automobile Level Technology - This is It.
That sickening crash can now be put behind you with auto level technology. For anyone still finding out the basics, or those pressing new 3D limitations, the auto level technology developed within the iKon will change the method you fly, allowing you to press the limitations with less risk of crashing. This technology is among the several reasons that make the iKon so unique, allowing a recovery from any orientation, no matter if the airplane is right side up or upside down. Unlike other "bail out" technologies, the iKon "knows" how the airplane is orientated, allowing a best side up recuperate every time. Further, with auto level technology, the airplane will stay level, allowing those first couple of training flights to be really memorable - in an excellent way.

Satellite & S-Bus Ready - It's Your Choice.
Allowing the convenience of satellite technology, the iKon supports Spektrum DSM2 & DSMX satellite receivers, in addition to S-Bus technology by means of Futaba. On the Spektrum side, (2) satellite ports are offered for optimum redundancy & course diversity, suited for helicopters 500 sized and greater.

Integrated in Guv - Set Your Speed & Flight Mode.
Utilizing a transmitter selectable guv, the iKon brings compact flybarless technology to every level of the helicopter, allowing you to dial in that perfect rotor speed that matches your style, all at the flip of a switch. Incorporating a selectable (3) change flight mode program, the iKon enables you to dial in your helicopter with fully adjustable flight mode parameters to get the very best from every flight. No more supplementary devices required on your machine - the iKon handles it all.

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

"As the majority of you know most of my flying has been on either a BeastX or a V-Bar, so these are the devices I will be directly comparing with the iKON. I will begin off with the BeastX. In my opinion, the iKON is method ahead of the BeastX in regards to flying characteristics and the features it offers. Please don't believe I am stating the BeastX is a bad system. It has its place, It is simple to setup and will fly excellent right our of the box, which is excellent for anyone who wants to keep it easy of for those just beginning with flybarless. Once you advance enough to the point where you desire more features 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 think about these devices to be.wait for it.equal! In regards to the software utilized for programming, the V-Bar is the clear winner, however looking at the flight performance and features, the choice becomes much more challenging. When comparing the performance in regards to cyclic and tail I would say these devices are so close it is hard to even inform them apart when flying them. They both offer you a really accurate locked in feel, and are extremely tunable for all flying designs. Both can be tuned to the point where there are no negative propensities. For people who fly faster then me, this argument may not hold true, however this is exactly what I found.

Now, when it concerns features 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 so many ports on the unit.not the case with the Mini V-Bar. Due to this I have actually never even utilized the internal guv on the Mini V-Bar given that it is unworthy the circuitry disaster this produces. The last thing is the bailout. There is no competitors, as the V-Bar does not have a similar function. When you integrate all of this with the considerably lower rate of the iKON, in my opinion, the iKON comes out equal if not a little ahead of the V-Bar."
