@Buddy RC This is news to me (flat governor throttle curves)! - what isn't this mentioned in the newer M2 V2 Manual? Did you ever get any optimum settings for the flight controller as far as Agility and Speed is concerned for various flight curves (normal, idle up 1, 3D)? I've seen some posts on Helifreak that mention lower numbers for Agility rather then higher ones? Thanks Buddy RC!

Best Damn helicopter radio setup I've ever seen. Taught me something new. I'm getting back into shell's from about a 10yr vacation. You video brought back some memories I had forgotten. Got three helicopters ordered and on the way. Thanks for such a great step by step setup video. I subscribed.

I wish I could hit the like button more than once. I watched this video very carefully, and with the proper use of the pause button, was able to follow you step by step in setting up my brand new OMP M1-EVO with almost no issues! I found the expo around the center collective to be a bit much, seemed soft and slow to respond, so cut that down and it did great! Also has the slightest of tail wags, and again, cut down the expo there and it mellowed it out there a bit as well. (or maybe I added some?....I forgot now!) This heli's great, and your video taught me a lot about not only the heli, but how to work my radio too! (Newer Spektrum NX-8) Just what I needed as I was really getting spoiled with all the "BNF" model out there. Thanks for the thorough video man! YOU ROCK!!

@@BuddyRC These settings can be also used for the m1? I just got my sfhss bnf version and a used zorro, i tried a first flight but i think something was off in my radio settings.. it was going all over the place even in stability mode and the throttle response was like super finicky and had very slow spool or response at all. Im not quite sure what else it would be but it ended up costing me a main shaft. im going to try and check with the swashplate tool and go from there

Thanks, was getting pretty frustrated, couldn't get this to work on my NX10 for some reason, but works perfect with my DX9.

a great video that others have not been able to make so understandable

The Kensun satellite is hard to find right now but I was able to get one. Easy to Bind. Problem I see is that it adds thickness to the side of the RX (I mounted exactly as you show) and now the canopy rubs the right Aileron servo arm. I think I am going to have to use a dremel to fix that as I do not any friction on that ball joint.

Great info.

Keep in mind that their radio only works with their aircraft. These setups are really not that hard once you follow a guide like this a time or two. Not knocking their radio at all, certainly a very fair price, and if you feel more confident going that route, go for it.

Can you use the newest Spektrum sats on this flight controller ? The reason I ask is that some FBL systems like BeastX suggest swapping some pins around on the sat cable to avoid damage to the SAT ..

This is awesome I just bought DX6E are these same for ME? Thanks🔥

Hello I have old dx6i skektrum would it work like this for me also thanks

Hi Are you able to do a vidoe on how to set rescue mode up using a dx18? Please

Do we need setup gyro seetings on the TX? I use a Spektrum DX8. Thx

Is it possible to set up a separate switch for your in transmitter flight modes (Normal , iu1, iu2) and the omp controller flight modes? I'm already a experienced pilot so won't use stability. What exactly is the difference between normal and violent 3D. besides the throttle curve you assign yourself?

I have one question with my m2 explorer I just got. When I turn it on there are faint but sharp noises coming out of the on board system and I don't know if that's normal or not. It does it quite often and just want to make sure it's normal.

So what should i use to get it to work???

How do you add the bail out feature?

When you are setting up your dual rates at your idol up to high rate I think you set the dual or the I'm sorry the expo at 15 on everything except for aileron you set it at 40 am I correct is that correct?

Do you have some video explaining about Futaba, I have the Futaba14SG radio and I liked this Helimodelo, but I didn't see anything about how to Bindar and configure in Futaba Protocol.

of these two radios , radiomaster tx16s or spektrum nx 8 which is the easiest too setup.

what's the set up for the gyro values ?

Wonderful set of instructions! With your heli knowledge you must start flying some 3D. Figure out the way to do it, step by step in your mind, then get on an elevated area like a hill so that you have more room for errors and can still see the heli well and do it!

I have to wonder about your pitch curve set to 56 at mid stick. I set mine to 50. I’ve never seen a manual that suggests 56. Also, I don’t know how anyone can fly with that much expo, I got rid of it all. Preferences I guess. Finally, it would’ve been nice to have a third hand for the binding procedure.

Question, I want to comfirm, can the spektrum transmitter bind with M1 directly?

You will have to get a new heli after that first invert.lol like I did ..slam! Into a rock . I'm alot better now and my m2 V2 comes today..thanks 😊

Awesome video, could you please share with me omp m1 serup for Futaba transmiter?. Thanks

Hi TJ, I am looking to use my DX6e radio with the M2 EXP. I have an SPM9645 as my external satellite receiver. That should be fine. I know there is a one-off step where you have to bind to an external source, i.e. a different receiver. I have actually watched Freddy Cordova doing this and he uses an old 7020 receiver as his 'external source' to bind to, but I note there is a lead from the 7020 to the satellite receiver. The only receiver I have lying around is an AR610 which has no such functionality, just the 7 open ports on the top. Will that work and if yes, will it mean I just bind wirelessly as opposed to wired? Thank you.

Cam I do this setup to dx6i transmitter?

Nice. Any tutorial for Radiomaster TX16s?

Would the pitch curves shown starting at 13:36 be considered mid, for beginner or ??

Can someone help me on what is the most likely problem with my M2? i setup my M2 with spektrum satellite, i binded it no problem. I set up the transmitter. I did not adjust any gains on the board. I flew it only 2 times, and it flew very smoothly there was no problem. But then on my second flight after a minute of flying, all of a sudden my tail motor blew out and did not respond. I was able to quickly save it from mid air by throttle holding, and it glide down, with a hard landing. Upon inspection, everything seemed to be fine except the tail motor. For some reason, the tail motor would respond only with twitches when i throttled up. occasionally, it would spool back to normal and respond to gyro input/rudder stick input , but most of the time it just twitches while the main motor spools up normally. At this, point the helicopter could not fly anymore, because the tailmotor would not function correctly. I dont know if it is a tailmotor defective or esc or mainboard problem. I literally only flew it and then it broke by itself. Although, could it be because i was doing pretty agressive pitch pumps that time?

bonjour il faut pré dire quoi comme recpteur pour un nx8 ?

I have my pitch curve on futaba t14sg Set to 100 - 85- 0 - 85 - 100, at idle 1 throttle curve 70- 67,5 - 65 - 67,5 - 70. And idle 2 i think in the middle to 75 and so on and it flies really really great

beginner mode is having the gyro stabilization on and the soft 3d mode is a combination of rates/headspeed and expo. Just disabling the gyro via channel 5 and adjusting your headspeed/rates according to your flying style will achieve this

Instead of switch b controlling both flight modes and stability/self level ( gear under channel assign) use a different switch for “gear” channel I use h. And keep b tied to your flight mode throttle and pitch curves. Pos 1 100 self level pos 2 -100 3D mode you can go to digital switch assign then and adjust values for switch positions accordingly for your desired switch.
