Alot of activity is going around about FLYBARLESS setups. Looks like now they are even getting moved over to the 500 class. Matt Botos seems be be really liking the flight characteristics of the flybarless setups. So much so, that he recently joined team Mikado. I guess, to get the free V-Bar setups, LOL. Just kidding Matt!

A video was submitted today of Matt doing some damage to a T-Rex 500. Is he allowed to fly a 500?? Isn’t he team Mikado (wink).

Looks like he borrowed this 500 from Fireup.
