    VX1e to debut at IRCHA!

    [​IMG]

    Spartan is at it again with their new FBL system. The Vortex VX1e is a ALL IN ONE unit and will be released at IRCHA next week. I would expect exceptional performance from Spartan.

    Gyro technology is the key feature in this new design. This allows the unit to be affordable, and still retain all the qualities Spartan puts into their systems. MEMS MPU-6000 sensor replaces the MEMS-Rings PinPoint gyros in the other Vortex models.

    PC interface allows you to make quick detailed changes using an built in USB port. Hints around Spartans Facebook page shows they are working on a application for your mobile phone to make quick changes at the field. You can still use your Datapod if you are a existing Votex user.



    Features

    • All in one device.
    • USB adapter
    • Multiple receiver capable.
    • PC software or Datapod.
    • Great value.

    Oh and ALSO Your hobby in Aus is now the authorized retailer as well, how's that !

      I'm pretty sure Revolution is planning on stocking them too. Going to be a lot of support in Oz for this little unit if it proves true at IRCHA.
