CrackRoll.com editor Aaron Shell has posted a new story:
After about a month of flying the Logo 600 with a flybarless head and Mikado's V-bar (virtual flybar), I am really starting to feel connected with the heli, and have a few flights under my belt with the new 4.0 software. What I have found fascinating is finding out the differences in performance as I switch back and forth between this flybarless heli and all my other fly bar equipped machines.
To start off with, the flybarless head is much more efficient than a fly bar head. Without the drag of the flybar and the energy it takes to do its job, the rotor head is noticeably different. The head is actually quieter, with less "whishing and whooshing" sounds, if you will. This extra efficiency can be realized either as extra power or longer flight times, and the heli will perform much better at lower head speeds than without the flybar.
