BAD forward rolls BUT bigger loops! Not all can be good!
I am training and training, but my rolls in forward flight are still bad. Also because now we have a lot of wind which throws even my OMPHOBBY M4 Max around. The good thing is that my loops are gettinmg bigger and more round. Please let me know in the comments if you have a receipe to "use" tailwinds in loops - if there is one. In my case I do most of my maneuvers against the wind because when I fly with the wind I feel thar I have much less control and possibilities. And at my field the wind is blowling in 90 % from one side. Please wirte in the comments about your experience with tailwind!

OMPHOBBY M4 or M4 Max? Difficult choice - I try to help!!
Просмотров 97914 дней назад
The OMPHOBBY M4 and the M4 Max are two very flying different helis and I show you why. Depending on your preferences and finacial possibilities you will find the right model for yourself. I am lucky to fly both and both are great in their very own, very different way. I forgot to mention that in the M4 is a 65 A ESC and in the M4 Max is a 85 A ESC. But thats all difference. Flight time 7.00 min...
SMALL OMP M2 Scale helis - BIG fun and performance!!
Просмотров 2,2 тыс.Месяц назад
Almost every week I see a new small RC scale heli model but many of them have features I personally don't like: 6G stability, GPS, optical flow, altitude hold, auto take off- and landing buttons. But I want to fly my helis actively by myself. So I got myself two scale fuselages for my OMPHOBBY M2 V2's offered by "Microheli". A Hughes 300 and a EC-145 fuselage. Both are fitting as well for the n...
My first big loops with my M4 Max - thanks to the new color?
Просмотров 837Месяц назад
I just bought a green canopy for my M4 Max and it looks like a new heli. And believe it or not: The new color gave me new courage. Right in my first flight in green I made at once much bigger loops than before when my M4 MAX was still orange. They are still not great, but better. If it's just psychology, if I see the heli better or feel better with it, I don't know. And it's not important. I am...
My bumpy road to (slightly) better inverted flight!!
Просмотров 715Месяц назад
How long did it take you to be able to hover your RC helicopter inverted on one place? Please let me know in the comment section! I thought hovering inverted would be easier! But after about 6 months of training (with breaks) I am still far away for holding my heli upside down on point. Strong and gusty winds don't make it easier and it's difficult to motivate myself for simulator training at h...

In one flight I'll show you six features which olny helicopters have and which make them so special and spectacular. The freedom to take off and land almost everywhere is the first and most important one for me. Have fun discovering which helicopter capabilities I love the most. PS: I forgot to mention sling load operation Have a look at my video's with sling load operation flying: OMP M4 Sling...

My love for helis is continuing to grow day by day with every bit of more confidence and I believe it will be like this forever. Please feel free to write in the comments if you see some progress in my flying and how we...
New airfield - new spirit! Why it's so important where you fly!
Просмотров 7783 месяца назад
I found a new airfiled and I feel like a new pilot! Some weak points in my heli flying were caused or increased by the shape of my former airfield: asymmetrical shape, powerlines and sorrounded everywehre by high trees and forest. That the wind was ALWAYS blowing from left to right did not help as well. After few days on my new field I know: This is it!! Everything is perfect! The best place to...
Areal footage from FPV drones chasing my OMP M4's!
Просмотров 3633 месяца назад
The best things often happen spontaneous! When I met Michal and Karol at my field we decided to make some tandem flights and they even teached me to fly a FPV drone! My new friends chased me with their drones to shoot some (electric powered) bird perspective footage. Strong wind on our first AND second meeting did not help. Our M4 video with inverted flight starts at 5:27! We had to fly very un...
I was flying too much!! My brain was fried!!
Просмотров 9474 месяца назад
Since I reduced the number of flights I am flying better again! As a freelancer and in my age I have the luck to be able to fly as often as I want. Sometimes up to 18 batteries in one session on the field. Now I know that it was too much, especially as I am training inverted fyling, which is a challenge for an old brain like mine. All control inputs are reversed, especially up and down - which ...
Nerve-wracking first INVERTRD flight with my OMP M4 Max
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.4 месяца назад
I was extremely nervous but I finally I did it: The first inverted flight with my OMPHOBBY M4 Max is on video! My fingers (and my knees) were shaking and frozen (fingers only) at the same time, because I had to do this on a stone-cold windy day. :) 18.4.2024, NOT 18.8.2024!! Crazy, I know. : ) But sometimes a man has to do what he has to do :) . And not always his wife and cameraman has the tim...
Testing the new M4 Explore geometry in crazy winds!
Просмотров 7895 месяцев назад
I fell in love on the first flight with the brandnew M4 EXPLORE geometry: Extended EXPL blade grip arms and a new EXPL swashplate for the OMPHOBBY M4. I felt at once the more linear and smooth cyclic control feeling because I was flying in crazy gusty winds. They keep me from progressing in my inverted flying skills. But they don't keep me from flying and testing even in eye eye of the storm. S...
M2 EVO inverted, M4 Max upright: Now I listen to my intuition!!
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.5 месяцев назад
I have put myself under pressure to improve my skills in inverted heli flight as fast as possible for some weeks. The results were a lot of crashes and one lost OMPHOBBY M1 EVO heli. Now I decided: I will l listen much more to my intuition and learn more andvanced flying in my very own personal pace. With my OMPHOBBY M2 EVO I have so many flights under my belt that it feels like a part of me an...
After crashing get up at once and fly the next heli!!
Просмотров 8286 месяцев назад
Preparing a new inverted video I crashed my M2 EVO. When I called my wife to tell her that it makes so sense to come to make a video because I crashed my heli she said: "You have the M4 Max with you, is it still ok? Then get back in the saddle and fly it! I'll be there in 10 minutes!" And this on the International Womens Day when other women prefer to go out for a dinner!! So with shaky knees f...
I crashed 4 helicopters! High time to have some fun again!
Просмотров 6566 месяцев назад
I've left the comfort zone to train inverted flight and I've paid a price: 3 helis were waiting on my shelf for repairs after hard crashes and my little OMPHOBBY M1 EVO is lost in the forrest after going down. Even after many hours searching with my wife there is not the slightest trace. It just "disappered". Now it's high time to change something: To have more fun and to reduce my ambitions. I...
