Hey all - I'm going to use this post for continuous discussion on the OMPHobby M2 line of heli's.

OMPHobby M2 Explore - https://omp.sale/m2Explore
OMPHobby M2 V2 - https://omp.sale/m2v2

The Explore has arrived with the V2 coming in the next few weeks. Feature spam for the explore is at the bottom. The V2 I'll put below this one. Point is, these little heli's are amazing. Since the original released late 2019 they have getting more and more popular. I'm not a heli pilot so I can only speak from what friends and customers have told me as my piddly little scale flying can't get these things anywhere close to what they can do. Look and feel the quality is exquisite. One thing I love is the fact that customer input is listened to and implemented. The changes from the original to the new versions are a reflection of that.
Check out my video that goes over the changes between the original, explore and v2.

(The flying done in this video is all done with the M2 Explore)

Been watching these on BuddyRC, and seems like they always sell out quick. Any ETA when they will be back in?

Cheers!

The stores aren't combined YET. Ohiomodelplanes.com for the m2. The explores are in stock currently. The V2's are in the mail and I expect to have them early next week.

Ohhhh now I gotta ask since I like all things purple...

The flight controller has three built-in flight modes:stabilizing attitude, soft 3D and violet 3D.

Explain Violet 3d to us :devilish: Is that anything like ludicrous speed or better yet going plaid?

Lol funny story. That was a typo that I overlooked during the first translation. And still isn't fixed 🤦‍♂️😂

How bout you have them send me one to toss around and review ;) hehe. I have upped my pilot skills a bit since you was last here and I think I could have a go at 3d heli again. Heres a half hearted resume on my latest job building and tuning and flying.

We answer the question HOW DO I CHANGE THE SETTINGS ON THE FLIGHT CONTROLLER!? It really is simple once you see it for the first time. This flight controller is only in the OMPHobby M2 Explore and V2 models. The original M2 has the old model that can not be adjusted.

How to setup the OMPHobby M2 Explore, V2 and Original version with OpenTX on the Radiomaster TX16s ! This video goes from start to finish and you'll be able to go from beginner to pro with this setup!

For those that are interested in the Radiomaster TX16s working directly with the M2. Just uploaded a video ;)
Thank you to everyone involved in this process! I literally couldn't have done it without you. As well as the massive amounts of questions the factory answered in the middle of the night (for them) while I was trying to figure out the curves situation hah.
