Default PowerBox iGyro 3E > user report

Hi there Gents,

for some time now i was reading about gyros and i decided i be openminded and give it a try.

My first taste was with a friends viper that has a Cortex on but i decided to go with the iGyro 3e http://www.powerbox-systems.com/prod...o/igyro3e.html
for the following reasons :
-algorithm designed originally for planes
-the VERY easy to use programming
-the low price
-and the feedback from the top guys Sebastiano Silvestri and Ali saying this is the best gyro on the market

My opinion between the two is that the iGyro 3e is way superior.
The Cortex has a more intrusive controlling feeling when the iGyro 3e feels more natural and smoother.

I got two iGyro 3e for my toys.A mustang and my new twin turbine SU-37 thats ready to go for painting.

Now my thoughts after my first flights …WOW what i was missing all this time!
Im very exited to report that i love flying with my new iGyros 3e and i will not go back.

I confirm Als saying that iGyro is NOT a flight control system! Is NOT an Autopilot, and they do not fly the plane for you .

Ali was right , iGyro did NOT improve my flying.It improved how the model flew!

On the Mustang because of the huge prop and the engine torque, i had a rolling effect during flight and engine trust issues that was pulling the plane all over.
Now all this are gone and the model is more precise . I'm free at last to enjoy flying it.

The SU became way more smoother, precise and way better in feeling.On top of that the iGyro gave it the flying grace of the real one.

With the gain in a triple switch per instructions, i found my self leaving it always on "heading" for the last 4 flights .
The feeling of flying a perfectly trimmed model is amazing ! You dont have to spent hours anymore fine tuning your mixes to get rid models couplings.

I strongly suggest to anyone to give it a try!
With the iGyro 3e my models behaviour improved dramatically …but unfortunately my skills haven't


note: make sure you secure down the gyro very well not only with the double adhesive tape!You dont want it loose!
