The Mikado VBar Control Touch Radio is the latest iteration of game changing integration between helicopter gyro and helicopter transmitter. VControl first came to market in 2013, and have disrupted the market in many positive ways over the years. Legendary integration and simplicity is still the heart of the VBar Control Touch design, and now features an extra bright 5.8" multi-touch color display, with ambient-light sensor to automatically control the brightness. Now including a total of 6 rotary knobs, VBar Control Touch is even more flexible with programming;especially for VPlane Airplane pilots, as four of the six wheels can be used for trim functions.

Underneath the case of the radio is a built in WiFi module used for multiple use scenarios, such as smart phone/tablet interaction, cloud functionality, and over-the-air online updates for VBar Neo gyro. Vbar Control Touch features a fast boot up time, of three seconds. Additionally, an automatic power on feature is present in that if an already bound model is switched on, the VBar Control Touch will power on.
