Im flying cgy750 and love it! Not terribly difficult to setup, but does take time and research to dial it in.

If i had a Futaba radio then I would most probably pick the 750 but since i am a JR guy the BeastX works for me very well.

BeastX is a great way to go, reasonably priced and easy to setup. Or you can wait a bit and check out the new Spartan Vortex VX1 system. It should be available soon.

Vbar 5.2 without a second glance.. sorry on a large N bird the Gov and the Vbar far out distance the beastX. I use both but reserve the BeastX for birds that dont need the Gov.

I was 100% bias to FBL in the past even after trying a few systems.Stuck with flybars until I flown the updated V3.0 BeastX..It flys just like my flybar helis did and the best part about it is you don't need a laptop to adjust anything which I really like..You change everything in the radio just like a flybared heli ..Stand along govs work awesome when setup correct,holds headspeed

I got BeastX on my 700N. I love the way it flies, and the 5minute-setup. I use the revlimiter in my AR7110R, and it rocks.

No denying that for instance vbar with JR/Spektrum radios provide a sexy wiring. But I just dont care what it looks like under the hood, its how it performs and how much work it is to setup that matters to me.

My next unit will without doubt be a vortex though! Just have to find a heli to put it on...

I have a futuba 10CG 700N not sure if that would have an effect on what fbl system to choose.

I'd be careful with Vbar on nitros... That thing seems to have issues from vibes. I run CGY750s and yes they are not the easiest to setup but they don't seem to mind the vibes!
