Default Mounting V-Bar sensor up front ?

Hey Guys,

I recently bought a used fury 55 i am converting it to FBL I watched Finless Bobs build Video and Was stuck on how they mounted the Gyro So i made a plate out of Carbon fiber and 2 Flat sided frame spacers and mounted it right in front of the clutch bell housing just wondering do i need to worry about vibration issues with the sensor being so close to the motor and Advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you are using the VBar Silverline, vibrations should not be an issue.

MA makes a front gyro mount for the Fury. I am using the CGY750. I moved the sensor up front and the controller to the rear gyro plate. As far as function I think it works better but also I don't have to remove my canopy to adjust the setting

I have yet to use the Vbar sensor up front. I have 13 flights or so logged with the sensor near the tail. I'm wondering if there is any noticable improvements when mounting it upfront.
