Mikado V-control Touch Review

In this video we go over the Vcontrol Touch and see what it’s all about. So far I’m very impressed with the radio system and ease of setup. More setup videos to come!

Want me to build your heli? Need one rebuilt or setup? Want to send something to the channel? Send me a email!

Great video! I am looking forward the the full setup vids!

We've been waiting for your next video with complete flybaless system set up may be with SAB Goblin 700.
Thanks for your tutorials!

I bought one to try out after years of using only Futaba. I also really like the radio/ set up process. I like that I can update the radio and FBL unit via Wi-Fi/hot spot! No laptop needed, no usb dongle that needs updating, no SD card needed(no SD card reader), no program box. I can see what I’m doing on the radio. No need to carry any of the previously mentioned items to the field. Integration with many ESC’s. No program box and etc to set them up either. Futaba is still lacking in that department. Going to install this in my Nimbus first then a couple other helis once the Evo Rx becomes available. Looking forward to the set-up vid on an electric and nitro.

Been using Vcontrol for a few years now, the best feature is being able to tune the helicopter whilst its flying, by assigning the Pots to whatever you want to control such as gains, PID and pretty much evrything else, can be done in the air to get the perfect setup for your heli, pure simplicity, everything stored in the FBL rather than the radio setting, makes it a breeze to fly some elses model, I have the EVO and the EVO FBL which also lets you play about with the pulse widths the frequency of the servos and ESC if they can take the lower or higher settings, overall the Vbar coupled with the Vcontrol you cant go wrong its the original and the best in my view.

That’s an awesome tx. I like all the sound effects lol

Since mikado released a evo that seems to have a lot of bugs, i went for a Neo used. Must say compared to my nx8 ( i know ix14 is a excellent radio)it is like night and day. I simply love the vbar touch. Cant wait for your set up video.

Hello Jeff,
Since your last video on the V-Bar Neo, I investigated it more thoroughly and am falling in love with the new V-Bar Evo. I will be saving my pennies for this radio and their new Evo flybarless. I will probably get it next year with the SAB 420 RAW. I just received the RS4 today on your recommendation and haven't had a chance to open the package. I will be using my Spectrum Radio for this heli. Did you ever receive a reply from H.D. about using the SLR2 remote receiver for the RS4? Keep up the good work. I appreciate all your videos.👍🧙‍♂

If you like to plug-in play, I would also recommend JETI

[arturosierra]

I believe that Mikado Vbar is an excellent Radio but the price is absolutely crazy, it is not jutified

[Vectorp]

Thank you for the review! I’ve been out of the hobby for a long time, is there a reason the radio doesn’t have digital trims???

[IRBry]

why would i go with this over an spektrum i series?

[Twx]

be carful with flying it jeff. especially the new vstabi evo, there is some problems with it

[joeylittell]

Will you be doing a set up video with the vcontrol and neo?

[NiCadHeliPilot]

Quick question: What sensors are the gimbals using? Are they standard potentiometers, hall effect sensors, or... something else?

[Gavs_rc_hobbies]

Oh nice, you can change it from mode 2 to mode 1?

[autorings]

Is The Vbar control touch the version before Vbar control evo?

[nanoswithabackbone]

Can you fly the Goosky S2 with this controller?

[primeix]

How did you get one?!?! They have been out of stock for so long!

[fcolon]

Plastic gimbal for a very expensive transmitter!!??

[DoctormoGP]

it is big remote, my finger is short, and i m favour to set up by PC, battery is limited capacity
