    Great review and descriptions!! I got my M4 and built it a few days ago! The build - my first ever kit build was going very, very smooth. Everything was fitting well, the precision of the parts is great. Cant wait to get her in the sky!!

    Hi Lee, O-my , how beautiful. I haven't flown a large heli since the 90s. I had a T-rex with a .61 K/B. I would be so nervous building this. But if I was younger I would love it. I think I'm going to stay with the M2. Thanks again for the video and information about this heli

    Beautiful machine, fantastic overview! This is the video I have been waiting for. After having built a couple of INAV Chinooks out of M1, M2 and Goblin Fireball parts, it is time for something larger. Now waiting for some cash to cross my way, then spend it on two M4 bundles and a Pixhawk. Looking forward to the maiden.

    Hi Buddy, long time! Hope you're well. Got mine up and running. So if you run a 2200Mah at around 1850rpm, with light 3D you can get a whopping 12 min flight time! Definitely some lovely efficiency gains from this well optimised direct-drive.

    For those that are wondering, Jonas Wackershauser is the designer of the M4. He also designed both the M1 & M2 EVO helicopters, plus he is one of the developers of AccuRC Precision Simulator.

    Looking forward to seeing your aducopter setup. I have a number of older electric helis that use the old microbeast and I would love to upgrade them to a modern flight controller. I believe neither Betaflight nor iNAV have any real helicopter support - is that correct?

    Why not have a separate motor for the tail like the smaller models ?

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  Рік тому +1

      Variable pitch tails are far better for more spriried flying and control in both directions. You can have the tail 'push' in both directions and not just rely on the counter torque from the main rotor for one side... Happy flying

      I've wanted to do an ardupilot helicopter for ages too. But I feel like I need to finish mounting the flight controller into my plane I was intending to run ardupilot on too.... That project started before Coronavirus. Every time I get inspired to do anything about it, I either can't find some part I need, or I can't decide how I'm going to mount something, and I give up in frustration (with myself more than the project - it's pretty basic stuff really).
