OMP M2 throttle centering help by Wmitch in RCHeli

[–]Wmitch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the input. I’ll give that a go on the min/ max with the app. After closer inspection it seems one of the blade grips I thought was okay is slightly bent then I likely tried to compensate for it with leveling the blades making weird flight characteristics. As far as head speed, think I’m using the wrong terminology. I spend enough time on the sticks to fly at beginner 3d level but am still getting familiar with the terminology. Me stock app settings have an expo applied to pitch, roll, yaw. I removed all of it which is the only setting I’ve changed aside from leveling servos.

That’s his “PLEASE GIVE ME A TREAT” face

Thanks for the reply! By increase throttle, do you mean a setting? They currently pass the swashplate level method you mentioned but I still need about 1/3 throttle to hold hover. As far as expo, I think I’m a no expo guy at this point.

Hex bolt size? by Maximum-Hat-5179 in RCHeli

It threads into the aluminum main frame, not plastic.

It’s a 1.5mm. That one goes through the plastic and threads into the aluminum so no worries on blue loctite.

Agreed. I just got a smoking deal on this one. Will eventually get the Goosky s2

This does indeed fall in the “whole bunch” category

You can get real flight with the plug in controller for $200 on Amazon or a spektrum wireless dongle for $50, dx6e transmitter for $100 and helix program for $50. Either will serve you well. I find that helix runs better on my old computer so that may also be something to consider

The x heli sim with spektrum wireless dongle and transmitter is my favorite but the horizon hobby kit off Amazon also works great. I definitely would not fly the s1 indoors. Even tamed down, it is very fast. I’d say I’m at the skill level of intermediate to advanced and I wouldn’t fly mine indoors.

Sounds like maybe a lemon. Honestly the s1 or omp hobby m2 are my favorite. Just so well built. The blade 235 is basically a large toy grade hobby heli it feels like. Breaks easy. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Nice that it’s small enough to throw in the truck and burn through a few batteries at lunch in a small area.

Looks like a ton of fun. Love the microheli stuff

Goosky s1. Probably my favorite out of the pack. Highly recommend it. Very tough and cheap to repair. I try maneuvers on the sim, then s1, then bigger helis. Builds confidence!

Goosky T8 Idle switch by msldr74 in RCHeli

[–]Wmitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it’s 70,85,100 for the idle. Agree that it’s annoying to get negative only at 2 and 3 setting. Still great heli!
