    nice helicopter and great flight in the wind,im terrible at flying helicopters 😂 maybe i need more practice 👍😀 subscribed 👍👍😀

      @rcplaytime Thank you for your kind comment. I was as well terrible at flying helicopters in the beginning. Crashing a lot, struggling with hover without stability. It took me 3 years to get to where I am now and I am so crazy that I am flying almost every day around 16 batteries... count that times 3 times 365 days and you see how much flights I have... I just love it and all I can now do comes from my (loved) practice!! Thanks for the sub!! Have fun and happy flights!!

    Good job my friend...Very nice upgrade. I can't wait to try them on mine M4

      Thank you, my friend! I guess you will be very positively surprised. The M4 feels now a lot bigger!!

    Thank you for this information, it looks like a very interesting upgrade. Will you add it to the M4 MAX too?

    • @RCCopterLove
      @RCCopterLove  6 месяцев назад +1

      @jupi-aladin Thank you for your question! No, I will use this EXP upgrade only on my M4 because it is meant to work togehter with very fast main blades like the RotorTech Ultimate 385. Jonas Wackershauser, the constructor of both models, explained me that on the M4 Max with the slower RT ultimate 420 main blades this geometry would be rather to slow. And now both feel really perfect for me. No need for Changes on the M4 Max.

      Thank you for your response. Do the two helis feel now similar?

    • @RCCopterLove
      @RCCopterLove  6 месяцев назад +1

      @@jupi-aladin In regards to the smooth cyclic feeling they feel similar. The M4 Max is stronger and more powerful especially with a lot lower RPM. I am happy that I got the M4 first, coming from the very small M2 and M1's because at least for me the slightly smaller rotor disc of the M4 was less intimidating. The M4 Max is a power monster! It was the right order for me to get the M4 first and the M4 Max as the second bigger heli! I love both very much. They are two indenpend models! Best greetings!!

      Interesting video thanks. Tell me, in your opinion, for a CP beginner like myself, currently flying a little xk k110 in non 6g mode (not stability), only hovering and basic circuits, would I be better served going to an M4 or M4 Max, or to an M2 as my next heli? I do have the option to fly outside when it eventually stops raining! Thanks

      @@frankymal8640 Thank you for your kind words! It is very good that you are flying basic maneuvers like hovering, side to side and circles and turns without stability! Thats exactly what I did after only a couple of flights using stability (felt horrible for me). So you know how flying a CP heli really feels. I would recommend you the M2 EVO as the next step. It is much less intimidating and you can fly it almost everywhere. With the M4 or M4 Max you need more free space like a field. And crashing will be much more expensive than with an M2 EVO. Once you have much more control I would go for the M4. Parts in cases of crashes are a bit cheaper (shorter Main Blades, Alu tail boom). I hope this helps! Happy fights!!

    I'm jealous that you are able to get so much stick time. I think I have a solution to my problem of getting more of it. I'm to the skill level now where I don't need a lot of room to fly, so I take my M1 out in front of my house, and fly it there. It's not really exciting, or as much fun but it's practice. Since the space is limited, I am able to keep it slowed down enough to where I'm just making rudder turns mostly, with very little to no cyclic. Just keeping it slow, and doing a lot of nose in hover, which as you know is great practice. I enjoy when you do nose in landings. I do the same, just not as often. These new arms and swash seem really great! Is this supposed to just be for the M4 or is this something that is supposed to go with M4 Max as well? I STILL have not built my M4 Max, and I know it uses a lot of the same parts from the M4, but wasn't sure about the arms and swash. Thanks for sharing Matthias! Looks like it will be something else I will be adding to the list of "Wants" for my Helis.

      @AnythingEverythingRC Your M1 training in limited space is really the best you can do if you dont have the time or weather (wind) to get to a field. As you wrote it teaches you precision and control of the speed! I do this a lot. In winter I am flying my M1 in my house: Just very slow and controlled flying from one place to another. Hovering in all orientations. It is always much, much better than no flying! As you see and hear in this video, I am flying in all wind conditions (and temperatures). My only NO GO is rain or snow. I don't ever fly again when its wet because of danger for the electronics. Jonas Wackershauser explained me that the Explore geometry is rather for the M4 with the very fast RT Ultimate 385 main blades. In his opinion on the M4 Max the Exp geometry is too slow because the RT Ultimate 420 main blades are slower. I gues for the M4 Max it is not really needed. I wish you lots of sticktime and good weather, wherever you fly!

    Thank you for your video ,Still not sure what that thing is on your boom? Fly beacon ?

    • @RCCopterLove
      @RCCopterLove  6 месяцев назад +1

      @Mrh168 Yes, it's my lost model finder, the ViFly Beacon Beeper. It works acoustic, loud beeps and with light after dark to help you find your model. The best is: Since I have it I did not crash!! :D Link: fpv.pl/pl/p/VIFLY-Beacon-bezprzewodowy-buzzer-z-czujnikiem-ruchu/324

    Really? Really you can fly inverted but not nose in?) I dont feel so bad about my skills now) Me cant inverted( Can you fly tail forward?

    • @RCCopterLove
      @RCCopterLove  6 месяцев назад

      @user-yl Sorry, I dont want to make you feel bad but there must be a misunderstanding: I love to fly nose in. It took me very long to get there with my M4's, but I now train it in every flight. Tail forward (reversed flying) circles or figure 8t's is not really fluent yet. I find this very hard. I can do circles reversed only quite slow and with a lot of corrections and "corners". I have a lot of training in front of me in these! Best wishes and happy flights!!

    Ur video quality isnt that great, fyi.

      @sawyerheslep Sorry for the bad sound quality. The wind was making terrible noises in the built in microphone of my wifes mobile phone. It was so windy that we had difficulties to stand on our feet. Hope there will be soon less wind and less noises.
