Default New Flybarless System from Gaui

There's a new flybarless system available, Gaui GU-365, available from Flying Hobby here, with a price of $199 only.



Manuals available over at RCGroups, Part 1 and Part 2.

From the video, it looks like it works pretty well, but we'll just need to see how easy it is to setup.

Anyone other than Nick Maxwell tried this yet?

the video shows a 200 size electric heli and infinity hobby reviews it to be used in a protos so we know it "should" be able to used at least up to a 500 size electric heli.

what is interesting if it could be used up to a 50 size nitro heli with good results. it would be quite amazing if it can be done at $199 price point.

only time will tell, so far i am inclined towards SK360 for my new flybarless project.

The description adds, it is for electric not nitro because of vibration. Size of machine is not the limit. I like the news of this upcomming tech. They also have fbarless heads for 450 size and 8mm mainshaft size. $ 200 for the electronics and $ 70.00 for the head and my mini titian gets a new personality. TimT

Thanks for the info, seems this is not ready for high speed flight nor 3D, the set up is too low level and the sensors are not pumping a stable performance. Comparing with others int the market, that is like a low cost working class car vs a Lambo ...

I don't think you can actually say anything until someone has objectively compared this system with either the SK360/V-bar/helicommand/etc in a single helicopter with the exact same setup except for the change in flybarless system.

In any case, I'm really wondering about your motive for this comment since you ARE a reseller for the SK360, and have spammed the Hong Kong members of this board promoting the SK360 by PM..

BTW, I am NOT affiliated with flying hobby or any retailer, just a rc heli flyer..

by saying it's not ready for 3D, I'll take that as you didn't watch the video of Nick and his Gaui 200 doing piro flips.. and of course you're basing all this on that it's not techy enough on setup?? so if it can be setup without being attached to a computer and going through a GUI, then it's no good?
