What does a gyro do on a RC helicopter?
The RC helicopter gyro is a small device that detects any yaw (left or right swinging) movement of the helicopter and automatically sends a command to the tail rotor servo (or tail motor on small fixed pitch tail rotor helicopters) to correct and stop/limit the yaw movement.
How does a helicopter flybar work?
The flybar has a weight or paddle (or both for added stability on smaller helicopters) at each end to maintain a constant plane of rotation. Through mechanical linkages, the stable rotation of the bar mixes with the swashplate movement to damp internal (steering) as well as external (wind) forces on the rotor.
What is the best flybarless system?
The MicroBeast Plus & MicroBeast Plus HD by BeastX (again out of Germany) is another FBL system that many pilots consider to be the best flybarless system currently on the market from an ease of use/programming standpoint for newbies.
What is head lock gyro?
The heading hold gyro (also called the Heading Lock Gyro) takes the dampening of the simple yaw rate gyro (YR) to another level. I should point out this article covers both stand alone heading lock tail gyros and those that are built into flybarless stabilization systems.
How many RC channels do I need?
Two channel works but some are for only one vehicle. I would get a radio that can hold multiple vehicles memory. Most higher end mid grade radios have three channels or more but if you see a 4 channel for a few dollars more then get for the four channel.

What is the purpose of a Flybar?
On a flybarless heli, when you input cyclic, you get instant response. The flybar dampens this by resisting the cyclic input. You can control the amount of dampening by varying the paddles size/weight, position from main shaft and mixing levers(where tuneable). The function of my flybar is to bend!
How do MEMS gyros work?
MEMS gyroscopes generally use a vibrating mechanical element as a sensing element for detecting the angular velocity. They do not have rotating parts that require bearings and this allows an easy miniaturization and the use of the manufacturing techniques typical of MEMS devices.
What makes the 3x flybarless?
The proven bavarianDEMON 3-axis sensor technology makes the 3X a superlative flybarless system. Equipped for absolutely precise control corrections of swash plate and tail. The 3X allows highly sophisticated 3D maneuvers in all flight conditions.
Why choose a flybarless RC helicopter?
Whether for beginners, advanced or experienced 3D pilots, the flybarless systems from bavarianDEMON support you throughout all the different learning phases, demands and expectations. Especially interesting for RC helicopters: our unique rescue system. With just one flick of a switch, the helicopter is leveled out and shot upwards on command.
What is the difference between a flybarless and a normal Flybar?
The blades used on a flybarless are completely different from the blades on a flybar. They are weighted differently. Unlike flybar, you need your blades to be heavier at the tip than at the root. The reason for that is, the flybarless is actually a very unstable system mechanically.
Why bavariandemon flybarless systems?
Demonic flybarless systems Description bavarianDEMON flybarless systems provide maximum safety, innovation, quality and performance – Made in Germany.
