Terrabit Senior Heliman Location: Seattle, WA - USA
| I love my flybarred L600. A V-bar upgrade is definately on my shortlist.
600 in general:
It would be nice if the frames were a little stronger where the landing gear attaches. It seems that area could be made more robust without compromising performance at all.
A bit more protection for those $500 10s and 12s lipos might be good even if it were offered as an option as the carbon battery tray is for the L10, etc.
+1 on the fg canopy.
V-bar:
V-bar components are too expensive. $450 for basic system electronics, $150 for the head, $120 for Bluetooth, $120 for the control panel. It's only a matter of time before somebody figures out a way to offer these products at a subsantially lower price. The same principle applies to many RC heli products. $400 for a speed controler is absurd. That is begging the Chinese to reverse-engineer and steal the technology - and they will.
Then we might all be flying crappy Chinese stuff instead of the elegantly refined and sophistocated German products we've come to know and love so much.
Just some thoughts.
