Got a chance to have a couple of batteries in the girl, got the basic setup done in the hall and it felt nice, got it out in the air and felt good but does need a bit of fine tuning,
Have a bit of cyclic wobble but the whole heli feels locked in solid, tail feels wicked and has great stopping out of quick piros yet is nice and soft around centre,
Set the software up with 25% expo and have 20% in my tx, as have been told having both expos is fine, and the heli is not quite as responsive as I would like but is great feeling as it don't tip into trouble quick, also turned the agility down a bit from stock and this has helped giving the heli a nice fluid feel,
Tail was setup as stock but for a small tweak on the gain, and it feels great, piro rates are brill both ways and when you give it some the tail moves quick, plus there was zero movement or kick on climb outs, compared to the 3gx it is so much more predictable in piros and climb out,
2 batteries in and my thoughts,
Set up wizzard and software is a doddle,
Basic settings are pretty good
Needs a bit of fine tuning but out of the box excellent
Stable and docile if you want it that way,
All in all I would recommend this unit for anyone from beginner to expert, it's tuneable for all, and with a bluetooth dongle (which mine is on the way) very tuneable at the field,
And here is the punch line, it's better than the Beastx but not sure about the Ikon, it's to close to call!
