Installed the 3 blade on my S2 before I even maidened it. I love it! This heli flies better than my omp m2 everyday. Can't get enough of this bird. Thanks for the recommendation.
Thank you! The three blade head is amazing! Flight video tomorrow! Both are fantastic helis, personally I prefer the S2 Over the M2 EVO for a few different reasons but main two is power and flight times. The S2 is more efficient and has a lot more power big-time noticeable differences. Also the servos on the S to have more power and do not feel like they’re stalling no matter what you do.
Nice I hope they make a 3 blade head for the Goosky SR4. Although it might be a on the big side for microheli. I'm sure it'll look great with a 3 blade.
Nice! Everything is on sale right now on microheli and the head is a great price! It is linked in the description. I would grab it while it’s on sale because it is a good discount!
wow you just solved one of my negatives towards this model,it was how you slid the canopy off with the 2 blades still on..other videos i watched did not show this..Brilliant.. can you share what 3blade advantage is?
I’m glad! I don’t know why others don’t show that. It’s very simple and allows you to keep the blades on. So three blades gives you more lift. Faster cyclic response and can run a lower head speed (longer flight) and get the same performance as you have that third blade.
@@westhobbiesrc8051the r2 is my first heli, I've run 8 batteries thru it today. I got it today also lol. I want to order a spare set of blades as I KNOW I'll need em eventually. I've seen the 3 and 4 blade conversions and wondering if a 3 or 4 blade upgrade would make my learning curve a bit easier? I'm not too bad with it as is but I'm just doing basic flight. I have quite a bit of experience with LOS flying with my quads and this seems similar so far. Unfortunately I have little to no experience with unassisted ( acro mode or 3d) so I'm going at it slowly. Eventually I'd like to get some moderate 3d flight skills. I use a simulator and can do some things on there just not ready to even attempt anything with my new heli.
@@erik120719 welcome to helis! Best part of the hobby (in my opinion!) no, you don’t need or what a 3 or 4 blade head. More parts and stuff to break when you crash. The S2 really is a perfect heli out of the box. Believe it or not, the stock blades are extremely durable. But I would just order anther set of blades main and tail, tail booms, main and feathering shafts, linkages and servo arms. Those are your main items that break in crashes.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 @westhobbiesrc8051 i felt it was a very agile machine . I bunped the blades off the ground once already and thought it was game over but just scuffed the blade. I will just order stocl replacement parts for now. Once i get more experience ill start modifying, i cant mamage to the eave things alone tho
Love your videos and I learn a lot from them. Question please for I am still in the learning stage. The Goosky blades are 193mm., You said you will be using 180mm blades for the 3 blade head. How come you are not using three 193mm blades? Just preference?
Thank you! I’m glad I can help you learn! So yes, the stock blades on the Goosky are 193mm. When going with a three blade you can run three 193mm blades but since you are adding a third blade you can run shorter blades witch will help with flight times as well as give you a fast response and keep the head speed around the same of the two blade.
Hey buddy, can you tell me where I can purchase this rotor head, or do I have to go straight to microheli. Also, can you fly it with the stock plastic blades?
@westhobbiesrc8051 Thank you for getting back. I will order one. I should probably get a few spindles and a blade grip arm as well. After watching your vids on the Rs4 I'm going to order one of those as well!!
Yes and no, having a third blade will give more lift and cyclic authority. It will be more stable as you have a third blade so more air movement and quicker gyro response.
Micro helis carbon blades are a complete rip off..$28 for a 205mm carbon blade? Wtf? Align makes 230mm for $16 and even that is still overpriced. I make my own carbon blades and carbon material and epoxy per blade set is literally less than $5!! I cant fathom paying $28 for a two set or maybe nearly $40 for a three blade set. I have better uses for my moneh.
Lol yeah I don’t believe you make blades. But send me a set I will test them for you! If you actually did any carbon work ( I do a lot of it) you will know carbon fiber is not cheap and you are noting making blades that will hold up with out molds and vacuuming and so on. But good try!
@@westhobbiesrc8051 Make it 4 bladed heads and we have an agreement. An odd number of blades looks weird and tacky in my personal opinion. Though I will say that increasing the number of blades by any number should theoretically decrease the amount of cyclic wobble that you get. Not that the goosky really has that issue to begin with.

Another Epic Modification by MicroHeli! Merry Christmas to you and the Family, Jeff!
Thank you! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well! I hope you had a great one!!
I've been debating on buying either the OMP or the Goosky. Both seem really good. Love the 3 blade setup.

I hope they do as well! I will ask them! They make three blade heads for the blade 330s so I think they can definitely do it!
When i finish the plane project I’ll be sure to get this since I’m already missing a whole head lol. Will get the king cobra canopy too
Nice! Everything is on sale right now on microheli and the head is a great price! It is linked in the description. I would grab it while it’s on sale because it is a good discount!
Your videos are great. Very detailed instructions. Thank you
Thank you! I’m glad the videos are helpful!
Great work. Merry Christmas, greetings from NJ
Thank you! Merry Christmas to you as well! Stay warm!
Looks fantastic! Merry Christmas!!
It really does! Merry Christmas to you as well!

Hi Jeff just a quick question , is there much difference setting up 3 blades vs 2 , as only ever set up 2 blades any advise would be great 👍🏻
Hey buddy, can you tell me where I can purchase this rotor head, or do I have to go straight to microheli. Also, can you fly it with the stock plastic blades?
@@Xplanker I always go though MicroHeli. They have a warehouse in the US. Yes, you can use the stock blades. Just run lower head speed,
@westhobbiesrc8051 Thank you for getting back. I will order one. I should probably get a few spindles and a blade grip arm as well. After watching your vids on the Rs4 I'm going to order one of those as well!!
Presumably full 3D is still available?
Yes definitely.
for hovering, is it better stable with 3 blades?
Yes and no, having a third blade will give more lift and cyclic authority. It will be more stable as you have a third blade so more air movement and quicker gyro response.
How can i order extra spindle shafts in case of a crash?
They will be available soon on the website.
Do you know if they make a kit for the OMP M2?
Yes they do, they make a 3 blade and 4 blade kit for the M2 and M2 EVO.
What size is that heli?
200 size, 193mm main blade.
First

Eh, seems unnecessary; you can't perfect what has already been perfected.
Never unnecessary three blade heads rock!
