Thank you very much for this tutorial. I have both the OMP hobby M1 and M2 explorer and have just bought a TX16s. Without this tutorial I would not have been able to switch from my old Futaba transmitter to the new TX16S! Very well explained you should go into teaching! Thanks again!
I'm new to these helicopters, but after watching this I had to buy a tx16s, it took me a few hours to set up, not all in one go, but it now works, thanks for your clear instructions, now I just need to learn to fly, a big thank you.
This video is going to be my PRIMARY video as a resource for heli setup. Like you said, there are many ways to do the same thing in OpenTx (I am a beginner to OpenTx). Absolutely fantastic and simple to follow!
Good job! I was able to set up the OMP2 Explorer with OpenTX on a Horus X12S using this video. I did things a bit differently but used a lot of your process. Thanks.
This is the best video of all I've watched regarding opentx Radiomaster. Very well done especially for beginners like me that have never used opentx. I like the ability to see the whole radio and the use of the navigation buttons. Shortcuts like copying curves and how to make a capital when labelling within the curve section.
Not sure if this has been suggested but you can just use 1 curve and 2 functions to set up idle up 1 & 2 curves. Just set this curve to the "!SE" option or whichever switch you use, the ! is a "not". This is also helpful for gyro stabilization switch on a 3 position switch. Thanks for the walk through. Happy flying
This is absolutely a great tutorial my friend. many were looking for it. Personally I find OpenTx a pain to setup helicopters, but your tutorial makes it just easy as 123. You should get million views on this video but what can we do for RUclips Happy algorithm LOL. Congrats for such a good tutorial. I will recommend whoever asks how to setup opentx for helis, to watch this video. Oh and i like your beard man. Keep up the good work. and try a simulator like Realflight G7.5 or so, practice some 3D. you are going to love it. you will be hooked.
Thanks man! And thankfully until the algorithm picks up friends like you are an amazing asset that are such a huge help in growing the channel! 😊 the guys over at AccuRC hooked us up with some copies of their heli Sim and the new m2 should be available soon in it!
@@BuddyRC Brother, the algorithm is designed to send biggest chunk of money into their pockets and leave us just a bone without meat to lick on hahahah. wasn't the case before right. no worries, Anyone asking me how to setup OpenTx for heli, I send them to this video :). AccuRC Guys are very supporting. I tested the very first one and the physics were not too good. but it sure has improved a lot now. if they have M2 in accurc, that will be nice. hope they do the math right to match its physics in real life. because this thing is a like a very very angry bee in real life hahaha. Once doing tictocs at full throttle I almost had the M2 in my face. that could have gone horribly wrong. Glad I punched the negative pitch in time :) now I fly M2 Explore at 75 to 80% throttle only. enough for mild 3D. My Big boy KDS innova 550 is almost ready to fly. No idea if i want to set that big heli with RadioMaster or Futaba 14SG :D it will be running a beastX System (No H1 GPS)
Thanks again dude! Maybe the channel will be monetized in the next few months but so far still lacking watch time haha! Long way to go before it means anything anyway. And yeah the M2 will be in accuRC! In real life my M2 is like a trainer, just hovering around the yard lol. I can do minor 3d in the sims but I'm not brave enough to do it in real life, yet. Maybe soon. I'll definitely have the camera on in case I blow it up :D
@@BuddyRC Yeah Bro for sure keep camera running for your first crash hahaha. and take it with a big laugh because crashes is what we enjoy. Repair time is our loving hobby time to repair our beloved helis. alishanmao at gmail is my email, if you like to know a little thing that can help monetize your channel quick
@@BuddyRC Whats your take on OMPhobby M1 versus Eachine E150? Looking at the Eachine as it is quite a bit cheaper, and more or less same size while using 3S with XT30 wires. Im in the market for a 3D heli, that I wont outgrow in a few days.?
What an outstanding video. I had used other videos, and were very frustrated. But yours was very easy to use and I was able to set up several helis on my Jumper T12 Pro that has been sitting for at least a year as I could not figure it out. Using a hobby grade controller makes a huge difference.
Brah..u are a god!! after just finishing my rebuild of a tRex 450se, I couldn't quite figure out how to setup my jumper T16 after switching from a Dx6i with it so I could setup my blade pitch and get her flying again. Now also with this ill be be able to setup my blade-130x..thank u so much buds
@@BuddyRC just one thing, since it's got a flybar all else I gotta tell the radio is set the cyclic channels for the 3 servos..I.e alron, elevator, yaw?
T.J. YOU ARE A GOD! A few days ago I purchased a TX16S Max from BuddyRC to replace my DX6e, I figured that it would be weeks before I could figure out how to use it with my M1 and M2. TY Brother!
@@whitegoodman7465 Though I like the functionality of the TX16S, after a couple of weeks of owning one; The build quality is "iffy". There are known (now I know) problems with the SD card slot (and the SD card itself), the toggle switches are very low quality.
@@whitegoodman7465 You're going to want a computerized radio to be able to really tune any RC model to your personal settings. My limited background is with Spektum. After getting acquainted with OpenTx I can't imagine ever going back to a proprietary protocol (Spektrum, Futaba, etc) radio. I'm not writing off Radiomaster, there are A LOT of people (including me) that like the TX16S. Just be aware of the known issues. Would I buy a TX16S if I had to do it all over again? Yes. If you're new to RC heli's consider the OMP T6 radio ($55.00 at BuddyRC), your M1 will be RTF in a matter of minutes.
Finally able to understand programming my Jumper T16 for a Heli. Thanks so much, I too will hopefully be able to transfer this to some of my non-spek equipped helicopters and airplanes - and the Spek stuff too.
PLEASE NOTE... this video guide is for the Futaba FHSS protocol OMP M2/M1. I spent 45 mins following this video setup on my TX16S then discovered the protocol being used is FHSS. My OMP M1 has the OMP protocol receiver (the option for either is available when you buy the helis). There is an easier way to link the TX16S with OMP... but I haven't test flown it yet.
How is it? fhss receiver opens up a shit ton more confusion for the heli. Def more interested in the receiver that actually comes with it and from the company.
Very nice and easy to follow. I would love to see you do a microbeast set up on same radio. It seems like it should be easy to set up, and I'm sure it is once you understand whats going on, but its a learning curve.
I do the main setup on the mixer tab and DR on inputs since inputs should stay inputs. But i just can copy your stuff and do it on the mixer tab, pretty much the same so BIG BIG THANKS! Great Help, keep it up.
Great video, Thank you so much! Questions: 1. I understand the Heli comes with OMP receiver out of the box, can you please cover that setup as well? I saw on multi-module website the channels are different. 2. In the Futaba setup you just showed, what happens if the flight mode is not FM1, i.e. 3D and you throw the Throttle Hold? Would it bring it back to -100%, which will cause the Heli to come down real fast? 3. I also saw on AccuRC a Rescue button, that could be great to see how to set it up
Thank you for the step-by-step, it was great! I followed along, even though there are a few things I think I normally do differently (throttle cut), but I followed along for the practice. Everything worked, except for some reason my pitch command was inverted (up was down...), so I had to reverse that channel. In spite of that this was very helpful!
Whether it's a dsm or sbus receiver this setup would work for either. The only change I had to make when I bound it to dsm with this exact setup was reversing channel 5 so self level activates as it should. (I will verify on Monday to be 1000% sure)
WOW, Awesome video. Very detailed though out the entire setup process! Thank you for your time in making this video. Made a huge change in my learning curve!
I believe in the Mixers if you set the multiplex to replace you wouldn't have to set the bird down and flip to 6G , "Replace" would replace 3D with 6G and visa versa, I believe I saw it left to Add , picked that one up from John Salt he explicitly stated "replace" for Multiplex, but I'm a noob so take it with a grain :] Great Video!! keep'm coming...
Thank you for the suggestion! I don't pretend to know how all of this stuff works haha. I can say though you don't have to set it down to engage self level, just flip the switch. It may be different if using an external receiver however.
this video is very helpful with my TX 16s I really enjoyed it . what would be really nice if you could do a video just like this using the Zorro transmitter.
@@BuddyRC thank you, got it figured out. The Zorro has a few minor quirks that you have to get used to in the menu section but, it's no different. Thanks for responding
Thank you so much for this video TJ. I am considering getting the Radio lick T16 and this has helped me see how to set up a helicopter. I am still not 100% sure on the Channel part for Spectrum Vs the futaba you used or the others out there. That Rx you used looked pretty small right now im using a Spek 4610 or something like that on my OMP with my DX8.
Whoever was flying the M2 at the end sure was having trouble getting it to hover steady! I like to have dual rates, expo, pitch and gyro controlled by one 3-position switch.
Thanks again for this video, I got my Radiomaster 16 yesterday and this morning i watched this video while i programmed my radio.. Just came in from a test flight everything seemed to work fine.. Only thing about this radio with it only going to 100% its 100% must = spektrums maybe 75% cause my Throttle curves were way to high sitting them at the same as i had on my DX8. same with dual rates i guess cause i had 125% on my DX8 and this one will only go to 100%.
I used this video to setup my M2, works great and thanks very much! I would like to know if these settings could be used for another heli like the Logo 550? Cheers, Chris...
Hi Buddy, all, thanks for the useful video. Since a newbie to the heli hobby and starting with an M1 to learn, sorry for my silly question. Is my understanding correct that with the gyro we activate the self levelling mode, so, we are effectively giving the automatic input to have self levelling when in normal flight and no self levelling in idle 1 and 2? Thanks
Try to do et up on my goosky rs4 venom i have tx18 4 in 1 edge video radio not like mine at all 2nd why so many switch .I am not a computer person and software .Where do all you get info on helicopter setting manual not say anything along with gooshy GTS control just set to #5
Thanks for the instructions on setting up but I have one small problem. When in normal mode (SE back) and throttle hold on (SF Down) when I move the throttle the heli spools up but not in th1 or th2. I have an OMPHobby M1 with the RF set to OMP mode (with the OMP firmware update ) . Would be grateful if you could shed some light on this. Thanks Dave
just got my m2 from you guys and have tried a couple setting it up but when I go from setting my curves to mixes the curves always reset. thought maybe something with copy and pasting throttle as my copy paste seems different. im two full batteries down from trying to figure it out. im lost
Great video! Thank you! Just one question, how did you setup the stabilizing mode on the TX? Sorry if I missed it. Do you Just engage channel 5 for stabilizing mode? Love what you are doing, thanks!
Fantastic Video, I need some help with my M2 V2 setup I have set up my Jumper T16 pro and bound the Frsky MX+reciever to the TX. All stick movements are working and flight modes on the M2 I started with normal mode (Gyro on) and switched the throttle hold/ disarm switch to on but cannot get the motors to spin up. On my Tx it shows as though it is armed and the throttle is working. The same is happening in all flight modes. Whatever I do I cannot get the motors to spin. It is not my set up or tx as I have tried another set up with the same results. My Tx works fine with all my other set ups on my quads and planes. The esc beeps when the battery is plugged in and the red and green lights are as they should be. Help needed please to resolve this issue. Thanks
Thanks for all the great videos on Open TX. If I buy your 16s new and upload the Jonas model file, do I need to do this set up or can I skip this model you are making? I have the OMP protocol bird.
This video was extremely helpful for me to switch to OpenTX from Spektrum. One question. I watched another video that was almost exactly the same process as the sone but he went to Mixes and added additional mixes for Aileron, Elevator and Rudder for each flight mode and set them to Replace for the multiplex setting. Is that not required for this setup?
I'm currently using a futaba satellite receiver with my M2 explore and an xk x6. I want to upgrade to this radio, can I use the same satellite receiver?
Hello bro I have xk k110 and tx16s and im beginner I wanna only 6G flight I can creat mode 4ch setting but can't another 2ch(motor on&off and pitch) Can you advice me for setting?
Hi!, thanks for the video. I followed the other video about using the internal OMP receiver, and that works fine. I would like to add Dual Rates and expo to that config, my question is: do I create a new model and follow this video from start to finish? Also, do I have to add all the curves or I can just add the inputs (with D/R and expo)?
Will you do a video with Radiomaster Zorro setup on the M1/M2. I can't find any heli setup videos period for that unit. I purchased one preloaded with the M1/M2 profiles. I would like to know if those profiles would work for other 3D helis without much change. The preloaded generic heli profile on the Zorro isn't close to the M1/M2 preloaded profile.
Just received my OMP M2 Explore. I have used this video to set up RM TX16S. I have bound the heli with RX. Is there a certain blade pitch that I should see for Normal, Idle 1 and Idle 2 modes?
Hi there I have just purchased the TX16s to use with the M2V2. Am I right in thinking I don't need a receiver now? (Since the firmware update?). Apologies for the ignorance but do I need to buy an SD card to install the firmware update?? Any help appreciated..
Will the M2 Evo rtf combo TRANSMITTER work with all omp helicopters Old M1 M2 v2 & Explorer (the futaba rx & dsmx etc) all rx versions without adding any rx sats please
Followed the instructions 100%, but when I test Gyro on N/F1/F2, it's reversed from what you show. That is, -100% on Flight Mode 1 + 2, +100% on normal. Is this because I'm using EDGE TX?
I cannot get the hold to work and cant figure out why. Ive went through this entire video and deleted and redone my curves, throttle inputs. The hold shows normal when I'm in inputs, and either in the widget outputs or output screen it doesnt cut the throttle and it doesnt on the heli either. Its driving me nuts😜
Thanks for watching! You can always do a special function switch to over ride just your throttle channel (channel 3 I believe) and just have it at -100 when activated.
Bonjour, suite à un crash j’ai remis à neuf mon M2. Mon problème est que l’hélicoptère est très difficile à voler car les gaz son très sensible. Le M2 a des variations très rapides en haut est en bas. Je possède une radio master TX12 avec votre programmation qui est super. Le M2 volé super avant le crash. Merci d’avance pour votre aide.
I've just watched this video like 20 times and I still cant get that throttle to work.I have the new OMP protocol for my m2 EXPLOREr that I cant even fly GRRRRR.PLEASE HELP ME
More recent video goes over the differences between the protocols on the m1. And really it's dependent on the person flying. One is easier to setup but limits flexibility (omp). Whereas the other allows you to set your own curves and have more control of the flight experience.
@@BuddyRC Yeah, I just discovered that. However, is it possible to use a SFHSS receiver plugged into the OMP board. That would be the best of both worlds?
I set my QX7s pretty much exactly how you have this in the video but I didn't realize until the end that you were using the futaba protocol. I"m using the OMP built in receiver. So of course mine is all jacked up and nothing is correct. How would your setup need to be changed to work with the OMP protocol? The channel order is CH1 CH2 CH3 CH4 CH5 CH6 CH7 A E Thr. Pitch R Thr. Hold Idle Mode with the exception of A, E, R the rest is entirely different from this video and nothing works right. Do you have another video that applies this same setup for the Omp protocol? I don't want to use an ext Rx as it just adds weight and clunkyness with the xtra wire etc.
Great Videos! i just have a small issue, i have been failing to setup my M2 v2 with the internal RX with my TX16S running EdgeTX. Just got the radio and struggling, do you have a base model file I can install and try? Stuck on this for 2 weeks now
@@BuddyRC I have tried that with the internal omp RX and nothing is working. I have done a basic setup using my JR 12x knowledge on a plane setup and most imputs working for now. Massive dead spots and crazy gyro outputs
Would this also work for the omp m1 evo? I have a zorro ELRS model and im new to helis. I could pick up a sfhss rx like in the video and plug it in the same connector if it has one?
@@BuddyRC I have ordered radiomaster external 4 in 1 unit! I should be good with that correct? I could then use edge companion to upload the stock profile onto my zorro or even use jonas' premade setup file
*FOR THE UPDATED ESC: M2 V2 and Explore Use FLAT LINE THROTTLE CURVES*
Normal: 0-60-60
Idle 1 : 65-65-65
Idle 2 : 85-85-85
Also recommended for the V1 or only for the V2?
@@mike_romeo_lima ONLY the v2/explore and M1 currently as they have esc governing
@@BuddyRC okay thanks TJ
Do you mean % values from 0-100% or from -100 to +100?
since your throttle normal curve in the vid is on -100

Awesome tutorial! Thank you so much!!
Brilliant info well detailed you put a lot of effect into this video. Nice one
Much appreciated!
this video is very helpful with my TX 16s I really enjoyed it . what would be really nice if you could do a video just like this using the Zorro transmitter.
It's exactly the same setup
@@BuddyRC thank you, got it figured out. The Zorro has a few minor quirks that you have to get used to in the menu section but, it's no different. Thanks for responding
really helps Great job I am considering getting the Radio
Thanks BAZ!
Thank you so much for this video TJ. I am considering getting the Radio lick T16 and this has helped me see how to set up a helicopter. I am still not 100% sure on the Channel part for Spectrum Vs the futaba you used or the others out there. That Rx you used looked pretty small right now im using a Spek 4610 or something like that on my OMP with my DX8.
When I bound this exact model to a spektrum receiver I just had to reverse channel 5 on the tx16s everything else worked as expected.
Whoever was flying the M2 at the end sure was having trouble getting it to hover steady!
I like to have dual rates, expo, pitch and gyro controlled by one 3-position switch.
Thanks again for this video, I got my Radiomaster 16 yesterday and this morning i watched this video while i programmed my radio.. Just came in from a test flight everything seemed to work fine.. Only thing about this radio with it only going to 100% its 100% must = spektrums maybe 75% cause my Throttle curves were way to high sitting them at the same as i had on my DX8. same with dual rates i guess cause i had 125% on my DX8 and this one will only go to 100%.
awesome sharing. Thanks very much, that is very helpful.
Good man
you rule youtube king beard.
Awesome video set up t16 pro thanks for the work
Thanks for watching Dave!
That was a very good tutorial. Thanks!!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
This is awesome thanks
Glad you like it!
I used this video to setup my M2, works great and thanks very much! I would like to know if these settings could be used for another heli like the Logo 550? Cheers, Chris...
I can not speak for other helis
Great video man!
Could you post a model file for this model as well?
My elevator and aileron don’t move the same, when one is at 50% the other is 36% and it’s different in all rate modes… what happened?
Hi Buddy, all, thanks for the useful video. Since a newbie to the heli hobby and starting with an M1 to learn, sorry for my silly question. Is my understanding correct that with the gyro we activate the self levelling mode, so, we are effectively giving the automatic input to have self levelling when in normal flight and no self levelling in idle 1 and 2? Thanks
its really2 cool man, I just bought this Radiomaster. Can I use this setting to other 6 ch heli? just little bit change in internal protocol setup?
I've had other people say they have had success using this to setup their other helis!
Try to do et up on my goosky rs4 venom i have tx18 4 in 1 edge video radio not like mine at all 2nd why so many switch .I am not a computer person and software .Where do all you get info on helicopter setting manual not say anything along with gooshy GTS control just set to #5
Thanks for watching! We only sell OMPHOBBY so I am unsure of anything with Goosky helicopters.
awesome tutorial
Thanks for the instructions on setting up but I have one small problem. When in normal mode (SE back) and throttle hold on (SF Down) when I move the throttle the heli spools up but not in th1 or th2. I have an OMPHobby M1 with the RF set to OMP mode (with the OMP firmware update ) . Would be grateful if you could shed some light on this. Thanks Dave
just got my m2 from you guys and have tried a couple setting it up but when I go from setting my curves to mixes the curves always reset. thought maybe something with copy and pasting throttle as my copy paste seems different. im two full batteries down from trying to figure it out. im lost
Thanks for watching! If you can give us a call we would gladly help you. It might be easier to explain over the phone so we can help you .
Awesome vid. Any chance you would make video setting up a microbeast + in open TX?
Thanks works for me
Awesome tutorial as usual! I am just checking if you know if it is possible to copy this set exact set up into Acuurc? Thanks
Great video! Thank you! Just one question, how did you setup the stabilizing mode on the TX? Sorry if I missed it. Do you Just engage channel 5 for stabilizing mode? Love what you are doing, thanks!
Fantastic Video,
I need some help with my M2 V2 setup
I have set up my Jumper T16 pro and bound the Frsky MX+reciever to the TX.
All stick movements are working and flight modes on the M2
I started with normal mode (Gyro on) and switched the throttle hold/ disarm switch to on but cannot get the motors to spin up. On my Tx it shows as though it is armed and the throttle is working.
The same is happening in all flight modes.
Whatever I do I cannot get the motors to spin.
It is not my set up or tx as I have tried another set up with the same results.
My Tx works fine with all my other set ups on my quads and planes.
The esc beeps when the battery is plugged in and the red and green lights are as they should be.
Help needed please to resolve this issue.
Thanks
Thanks for all the great videos on Open TX. If I buy your 16s new and upload the Jonas model file, do I need to do this set up or can I skip this model you are making? I have the OMP protocol bird.
This video was extremely helpful for me to switch to OpenTX from Spektrum. One question. I watched another video that was almost exactly the same process as the sone but he went to Mixes and added additional mixes for Aileron, Elevator and Rudder for each flight mode and set them to Replace for the multiplex setting. Is that not required for this setup?
No
I'm currently using a futaba satellite receiver with my M2 explore and an xk x6. I want to upgrade to this radio, can I use the same satellite receiver?
Hello bro
I have xk k110 and tx16s and im beginner
I wanna only 6G flight
I can creat mode 4ch setting but can't another 2ch(motor on&off and pitch)
Can you advice me for setting?
I followed your steps but I can’t bind my m1
Hi!, thanks for the video. I followed the other video about using the internal OMP receiver, and that works fine. I would like to add Dual Rates and expo to that config, my question is: do I create a new model and follow this video from start to finish? Also, do I have to add all the curves or I can just add the inputs (with D/R and expo)?
Hi i tried to setup my OMp 2 times following this video , but rudder in the left don’t works !! Any advice if forgets something?
Will you do a video with Radiomaster Zorro setup on the M1/M2. I can't find any heli setup videos period for that unit. I purchased one preloaded with the M1/M2 profiles. I would like to know if those profiles would work for other 3D helis without much change. The preloaded generic heli profile on the Zorro isn't close to the M1/M2 preloaded profile.
Just saw an answer to part of my question in comments below that those settings will work for other flybarless helicopters.
Just received my OMP M2 Explore. I have used this video to set up RM TX16S. I have bound the heli with RX. Is there a certain blade pitch that I should see for Normal, Idle 1 and Idle 2 modes?
Thank you for this. Doe this also work for my helis with iKON controller onboard?
Hi there I have just purchased the TX16s to use with the M2V2. Am I right in thinking I don't need a receiver now? (Since the firmware update?). Apologies for the ignorance but do I need to buy an SD card to install the firmware update?? Any help appreciated..
Does the M1/M2 able to accept a AFHDS ( flsky satalite Rx )
Ti chiedo scusa ho seguito alla lettera le tue istruzioni ma il mio M2 in binding con spektrum DX9 funziona tutto ma il piatto non si livella perche?
why do you set up as a plane instead of a heli ??
Will the M2 Evo rtf combo TRANSMITTER work with all omp helicopters Old M1 M2 v2 & Explorer (the futaba rx & dsmx etc) all rx versions without adding any rx sats please
Yes
Followed the instructions 100%, but when I test Gyro on N/F1/F2, it's reversed from what you show. That is, -100% on Flight Mode 1 + 2, +100% on normal. Is this because I'm using EDGE TX?
Just reverse it.
I cannot get the hold to work and cant figure out why. Ive went through this entire video and deleted and redone my curves, throttle inputs. The hold shows normal when I'm in inputs, and either in the widget outputs or output screen it doesnt cut the throttle and it doesnt on the heli either. Its driving me nuts😜
Thanks for watching! You can always do a special function switch to over ride just your throttle channel (channel 3 I believe) and just have it at -100 when activated.
@BuddyRC I understand that but I can't figure out why that throttle input isn't showing that curve in the monitor
Do I need to do a esc calibration before I try to fly?
Bonjour, suite à un crash j’ai remis à neuf mon M2.
Mon problème est que l’hélicoptère est très difficile à voler car les gaz son très sensible.
Le M2 a des variations très rapides en haut est en bas.
Je possède une radio master TX12 avec votre programmation qui est super.
Le M2 volé super avant le crash.
Merci d’avance pour votre aide.
I've just watched this video like 20 times and I still cant get that throttle to work.I have the new OMP protocol for my m2 EXPLOREr that I cant even fly GRRRRR.PLEASE HELP ME
My friend just bought an M2 Evo and a Zorro 4 in 1 radio. Are there any download setups for Open-Tx to get started with?
If he bought the RTF version the Zorro has pre programmed M2 models
Now you have used both protocols (OMP & Futaba) Which do you recommend SFHSS or OMP?
More recent video goes over the differences between the protocols on the m1. And really it's dependent on the person flying. One is easier to setup but limits flexibility (omp). Whereas the other allows you to set your own curves and have more control of the flight experience.
@@BuddyRC Yeah, I just discovered that. However, is it possible to use a SFHSS receiver plugged into the OMP board. That would be the best of both worlds?
Hi! Do I need to buy a receiver if I want to buy the TS16S with the OMP M1?
The Tx16s has multi protocol, you should be able to bind right up to the Tx16s. You will need to set up the heli in the radio. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the video, very clear. a question; The mini SFHSS RX can also be used for other helicopters, which are 3D 6G 6 channels?
I can be used for anything that you can plug it into/hook it up to. It's just a mini receiver that OMP branded for use.
@@BuddyRC discount code ?
Thanks I found
hi buddy..im a newbie....i have edge TX on my t16s..will this work too? tnx
Yes it will
Does the helicopter come with the binding rx tx
Receiver is built in the FC or you can install your own.
I set my QX7s pretty much exactly how you have this in the video but I didn't realize until the end that you were using the futaba protocol. I"m using the OMP built in receiver. So of course mine is all jacked up and nothing is correct. How would your setup need to be changed to work with the OMP protocol? The channel order is
CH1 CH2 CH3 CH4 CH5 CH6 CH7
A E Thr. Pitch R Thr. Hold Idle Mode
with the exception of A, E, R the rest is entirely different from this video and nothing works right. Do you have another video that applies this same setup for the Omp protocol? I don't want to use an ext Rx as it just adds weight and clunkyness with the xtra wire etc.
If you're using the omp protocol built in rx check my other video.
Hey! I'm using EDGE TX + M1 EVO. There's no arrows when it comes to reversing channels. Any idea? Additionally, any changes for M1 EVO? Thanks!
In mixes select the channel you want to reverse and put the weight to minus 100
@@alanreid250 Thanks, Alan!
Stupid question but the FC will work with any RX compatible with the Radiomaster+module, like Crossfire?
Yes
Great Videos! i just have a small issue, i have been failing to setup my M2 v2 with the internal RX with my TX16S running EdgeTX. Just got the radio and struggling, do you have a base model file I can install and try? Stuck on this for 2 weeks now
The TX16S comes preloaded with a model for the M2
@@BuddyRC I have tried that with the internal omp RX and nothing is working. I have done a basic setup using my JR 12x knowledge on a plane setup and most imputs working for now. Massive dead spots and crazy gyro outputs
Would this also work for the omp m1 evo? I have a zorro ELRS model and im new to helis. I could pick up a sfhss rx like in the video and plug it in the same connector if it has one?
ELRS can not bind to sfhss
@@BuddyRC I have ordered radiomaster external 4 in 1 unit! I should be good with that correct? I could then use edge companion to upload the stock profile onto my zorro or even use jonas' premade setup file
