Hey Fred how do you set zero pitch and I’d it that important on these micros? In normal 3D mode it isn’t zero at mid stick but it is in idle up. Is that what matters and should you level your swash in idle up? Thanks. I guess levelling a swash and setting zero pitch are different things? Would you have to turn links and should it also be a zero pitch in normal mode? Sure seems to fly rock solid with no drift regardless. Thanks.
Hi sir good day. Sir can I use XK6 controller to OMP?since the the protocol is FHSS?or do I need to buy another receiver?for OMP? Thank you so much sir
Yes, you just need to choose futaba version of the m2. By the way, you can get a huge difference even on k110 by just upgrading the radio and glue the front servo.
@@arnoldgines3381 There is a futana version of omp M1 that can directly pair with futaba radio and xk x6 radio. But there isn't a futana version of M2. You need to get a futaba receiver. That's why I haven't pulled a trigger on M2.
Is the tail-boom the same? I read somewhere the V2 has an aluminum tail boom, and the original M2 has a carbon boom. But in the video they appear to have identical boom.
If I bind my Explore to my Spektrum DX9, Do I do all the setup inside the DX9 ? or do I need to program anything into the OMP flight controller ? This is my first adventure with an OMP Heli
If the Explore is factory set then no you do not need to change anything. Just bind and do your radio setup and fly, if you want to make changes later then you can use the program settings on the FBL system.
Nice! Do you feel any difference in weight holding both helis or in flight? I suppose the Exp is lighter. Would it feel a little agile in flight? Thanks.
Honestly they feel the exact same in flight. Yes I am sure the explore is just a little lighter due to less metal but it is not something you can notice.
So im looking to get back into the hobby after a 2 year absence. I still a 450 and a 500 t rex. Im thinking of getting a smaller helli to ease back into the hobby. Im no 3d flyer (still working on that) . Would you recommend getting something smaller for small garden use and which one, budget wise.?
Hey mate, thanks for informative videos👍🏽. Could you please do a review on ALZRC devil 380/420/505 helis? They are available in Banggood and they seem to be best value for the money. Cheers from down under.
Hey Freddy....you recently recommended that I consider the OMP heli. I currently fly a Blade 230s V2 and really enjoy the self leveling feature. I'm not really interested in inverted flight or 3d, I save that for my planes. Was wondering if the self leveling flight mode on the OMP works well? If it does work well, I really like this heli. Appears to have tons of power and love that it doesn't have a main gear. (-: It's way more fun for me to fly in that mode so I don't have to worry about crashing. Can still do some very nice flying in that mode. Thanks man, and I appreciate your time as always. Chris California
Hey buddy, yes the self level feature is amazing and its very easy and simple to use. If you are interested in getting an OMP M2 V2 kit or even the M1 shoot me an IM on FaceBook Messenger and I can go over the ordering details.
Do you find that many people use the self leveling, or is that somewhat uncommon? I feel like I'm cheating a bit by using it, it's just more fun for me. LOL.
Good comparison Freddy, I’m gonna start saving $50 here and there so I can get the Heli, been wanting to get it for a while now, it’ll go nicely with my RadioMaster Tx. Regards, from Cali.
I was contacted by TJ a while back I have not heard back yet. I wold really love to make some vids and reviews on the M1 now that I know how amazing the M2 is. Please feel free to reach out to me via Messenger or TJ has my personal phone number as well.

Great video! Many thanks! I use FrSKy receivers, do you know if both (v2 and Explorer) are compatible with FrSKy s-Bus?
Hi Freddy is this heli ok for beginners does it has a safe beginners mode stability mode to start with let’ me know please
Yes its amazing and it does have the self level feature. If you watch my setup videos for it I show you have to do it.
hi, whats a good all-around transmitter for the M2 explorer for lets say under $70 USD?
Well you can get the T6 made by OMP and I believe its around that price point. Or you can look for a used Spektrum radio maybe like a dx 6 or dx 7.
@@33forsaken went with a TX16S since it supports multiple protocols, and its decent for the price.

Yes you should be able to have this happen.
Thank you for the help :)

Can omp m2 v2 canopy swab in the explore v2?
That’s my question too
@@shahram677Yes.
Freddy I need Help setting up my OMP M2 V2 with internal receiver and Radiomaster tx16s

Good video it helps many while choosing one while buying. Looking forward for some flight videos. Thanks .
Just waiting for some nice weather :)

Yes I would say the OMP M2 or if you want even smaller the M1.
@@33forsaken thank you for the advice. In terms of getting spares for it. Are they easy to come by?
@@djflight1 yes they are and the Heli it self is very durable in a crash.
@@33forsaken cool. Thanks for all the info
Great video- I've been looking at getting the m2 v2.. looking for the best deal.

If I can every get my hands on them I will for sure :)
Very good explanation Freddy. What is the actual price of both?
The Explore is around 280.00 US and the M2 V2 is around 350 US I do believe

and would you agree that some nice sport flying can be done with a heli in self leveling mode? Or is it too limiting to fly well? Thanks again!!
Awesome Thanks for the clarification ! M2 Explore seems like a better deal $$ wise ! Cheers
Yes they are both amazing, I really like the all metal rotor and servos.
Good comparison Freddy, I’m gonna start saving $50 here and there so I can get the Heli, been wanting to get it for a while now, it’ll go nicely with my RadioMaster Tx. Regards, from Cali.
Hey buddy shoot me an IM on messenger when your ready I can get you a great deal and send one out to you :)
The servos are about 80dollars less
Yea you pay more for the bling basically
Hello Freddy Cordova, this is Michael from OMPHOBBY, would you like to reciew OMPHOBBY M1?

Great video and excellent promotion for them. You are wasted Freddy
Wasted ?
You forgot the most important part... The canopy on the explore looks way better, I would pay more just for that. 😁
Lol for sure, everybody likes to have something a little different these days.
