Just forgot how simple Spektrum is to setup! Appreciate you and all that you do for the hobby. I got one of those "bind button" Spektrum clone receivers from AMain for my S1. Worked flawlessly so far. Having used the RadioMaster Zorro and Jumper T-lite both the SFHSS and DSMx protocols, I feel like I forgot to do something!!!😂😂😂 My TBS Tango 2 is getting the MPM add-on soon. Plan to bind some Spektrum, Futaba and.... Crossfire! If I can find a receiver small enough. Who knows... Keep it up my man!
Thanks for the video, it is much appreciated. It answered a lot of the questions I had. I'm not sure I got the satellite RX bound properly so I'll try that again.
Is using auto-level in idle up 1/2 simply done by flicking the flight mode switch to auto-level, or is there an intermittent panic-button assigned that auto-levels without dropping head speed?
This helps a lot. I've been hacking something like this together with a Spektrum RX integrated right into the FBL, converting through a Multiprotocol module to an Edge-TX system running on a kind-of supported FrSky radio and yeah... ^^ still need to figure out the gain channel but that's AS3X stuff and unrelated to this video, hehe. ;)
helpful and worked well . makes it feel better than with the RTF remote . i cant download the goosky app . how much adjusting through the app do you do with the s1 and s2 ?? thank you .
@@antoineozaneaux6881 I’m glad the video was helpful. The stock Remote is good for beginners but the heli will feel and fly much better! So I always up the servo speed and that’s it. Everything else I think is great how it is. Have you tired downloading on a different device?
@@westhobbiesrc8051 i got the app to download on a different device . i looked at the parameters . once i understand it better i will make changes . thank you again .
I am at a loss. I have an NX8 and followed your set up. As soon as the throttle is at 50% the helicopter launches but goes forward, down elevator does not bring it back. It also lur he's to the left. What's up with that. HELP!!
Does the throttle curve and pitch curve also affects how agile the heli is when it comes to flips and stuff? so my heli out of the box takes forever to rotate in a flip, what can i change in my settings for it to be more agil?
No, throttle and pitch curve does not affect rotation rate. You will want to go into the FBL (you can use the Bluetooth app) and speed up the Elevator and Aileron rates to make the heli have a faster rotation.
Hey there. Another channel posted that there is no telemetry with the Goosky S1 when using the Futaba protocol. He setup the heli with an edgetx radio. Do you have telemetry with your Spectrum? Any way to have Telemetry with an S1 and a RadioMaster TX16S? Thanks!
Thanks for the video, very nice. Can you flip or roll and fly this helicopter inverted in the stabilization mode? I like the way the helicopter feels/flies in stabilization mode, seems to wander less and be more lock in. In the other mode it does not feel locked in, is there some flybar controller settings you can recommend that would make the helicopter feel/fly more locked in the 3D mode?
Just picked up one of these. Have to get a Sat RX. I guess on the BNF, blade pitch is already set up on the FBL unit for the different flight modes? Or is that done through the app? Really appreciate your videos. Going through your Raw 420 build series right now. Very, very helpful! Been almost 10 years since my last heli build.
Thank you for watching! I’m glad these videos are helpful! Yes, you will need a DSMX satellite. I would recommend the Kensun DSMX as it has a bind button. If you use a Spektrum DSMX satellite you will need an RX to bind. Everything in the FBL is set. You just need to setup your radio.
Hello Jeff, all of your videos have been a big help to me. I'm looking to get an S1 and wanted to know if a AR6200 sat will work. I have a 6200 receiver to bind it with. Thanks!
Hey! Quick question: You said you like to take some negative out of the pitch curve in normal mode (30, 40,50,75,100), what would the standard pitch curve be if you didn't like to take some negative out of it?
So normal pitch curve is linear, so 0-25-50-75-100. But in normal mode for taking off and landing there is no reason to have a lot of negative pitch putting pressure on the skids. Unless your normal mode is a Stunt more or idle up. Then you will want a linear curve.
Or just bind your Futaba or Radiomaster directly to the built in receiver in the Goosky S1 FBL controller! 🙂 PS: I'm not a big believer in high throttle curves and crazy head speeds.
This is the best comment ever, maybe in the entire history of the Internet. I guess most people who google for "Goosky S1 Spektrum ..." are probably so glad that you told them how a Futaba binds to that Heli, I mean, now that I think about it, it feels like my Spektrum bind to the Heli just by me reading your nobel- and purlitzer-price worthy piece of highly relevant Information.
I just bought an IX14 like you have. Trying to set the GS1 like you. Only on the monitor screen is doesn't have Gear. It has GYR where yours has Gear? Any idea?
I like the telemetry feature on Blade Helicopters. Is it possible to get battery voltage telemetry on Goosky? OMP? I have NX10. Also, what is the brand of the satellite receiver you are using?
Thank you for watching. So normal mode is used for take off/landing or just normal flying around. On helis like this you can put the Auto level to this mode and have a “beginner” mode and flip to Idle 1 or 2 for 3D or back to normal mode.
Hi Jeff. I see you configured your Gear channel to your flight mode so a three position switch. I want to place it on a two position switch, switch C on my DX6. I am not sure if it working, can you tell me which values are actually output to your Gear channel when you move through to see what value triggers the auto level and adjust that accordingly?
I'm new to heli's and don't have old stuff laying around. Since I'm starting fresh with a Spektrum NX8 Radio, what is the easiest thing for me to buy to make it compatible with Goosky S1. Thanks, Jeff, or anyone else who sees this and responds.
Hi Jeff, finally got my S1 since Pre ordering it took a while but got it finally. Anyway, minor info needed here. Got it setup with my 16IZ, when I’m on normal mode and mode 1 flight controller led is blinking red, stability mode on? And solid red on mode 2 is that stability mode off? Feels and hovers great, mind sharing your flight adjustments on your App? Thanks Jeff
Glad you finally got it! I know the S1 out sold there expectations. They sold wayyyy more then they ever thought on the preorder. I believe that’s right. I would have to look at the blinking lights again to remember exactly what they are. But a +100 is auto level on a 0 and -100 value is auto level off. The only thing I did in the app is servo speed. It’s at 78 on elevator, Aileron and rudder. Everything else is stock setting.
@@westhobbiesrc8051Cool, thank you much Jeff. I’ll probably set mine on 65 Ail and Ele, 75 rudder then I’ll go from there. Out of the box this little guy flies amazing. Cheers!
@@westhobbiesrc8051 Thanks Jeff, think I figured it out. In my 16IZ had to reverse the Gear channel. Now normal mode is solid red auto level on, and mode 1 and 2 blinking red auto level off. Whenever I was on mode 2 felt like I was fighting the stick 😂 you know that feeling when you’re on auto level, so I reversed it .
Thanks for the helpful video. My S1 is on the way this week. Now, I just need to figure out how I'll be able to adjust the flight controller... I don't own a smartphone, but I do have a MacBook Pro and a Windows notebook. Do you think I'll be able to do it somehow?
Thank you for watching! So you can adjust the FBL right from the FBL with the lights. No need for the smartphone or PC. I’ve got a older video on the OMP FBL adjustment with the blinking lights. But I can make a video on it.
@@desmobob900sssp oh yes! All Goosky FBL I have a set button that you push and hold for a few seconds and the lights will start blinking then you use your transmitter to move through the menus. There is a little booklet that comes in the box and in that booklet it will explain how to use your transmitter sticks to navigate the menus and adjust parameters to your liking.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 Now, other S1 owners ae telling me that's not the case; there is no provision for adjusting the S1's FBL without the app using Bluetooth. There is a bind button and some LEDs to show status, but no adjustments possible. Mine should be here tomorrow so I'll know for sure!
Hey man, I have two s1’s. I fly them like I do, and they lock out and hit the deck. I have two set up the same. They are two different Helis with there own dsmx remote receiver and extension cable. First one crashed on its own, so I ordered another from Amain and it cuts out too. Now it won’t even hover without going up and down on its own. It’s weird. I wish I would have just stuck to the M1 evo. At least it doesn’t let me down.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 Spektrum of course. Donnie P is having same issue. I’m a Jedi. This new batch has a bug or something. Donnie’s just tips over. It’s strange. Nothing wrong with Spektrum. We bound a Futaba and it actually was worse. You will hear all about it soon. I dropped the group. Too political for me.
@@CoeShow619 I’ve not heard any issues with that yet. I know 11 people with them (not part of Goosky or heli direct) and no issues. Very weird. Mine is a preproduction model so I hope it’s not a production issue. That won’t be good at all but I’ll ask and see what can be done. I fly mine on spektrum lol but I know the Kensun satellites don’t weird stuff even on OMP.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 yeah man. It’s this new batch. Ben was with us too. They have a bug or something. It’s drone type technology issues. Could be that it’s sensing vibes, because the board is hard mounted. These are brand new and they do not work properly. I actually have two different ones that lock out and hit the deck full speed. The m1 evo does not do that. So freakin weird man.
@@CoeShow619 I just sent a message to Goosky and see what we can figure out. Contact frank lee on Facebook and tell him I sent you. My M1 and M1 EVO have gone though 6 servos so far. But I know that’s a issue so hopefully the S1 doesn’t go though servos like the M1 does.
That is my normal way of talking and getting a video to where it’s not to long and boring. In the upper right corner of the screen, there is a gear icon. Hit that and slow the video speed down.
Just finished setting up my new S1 after watching your video and it flies perfect. Took me maybe 5 minutes using a DX8 G2.
That’s great! I’m glad the video was helpful and it was easy to set your S1 up!
Top Video 😊😊😊
Jeff , you set up a heli so fast a person would think you sleep with your transmitter under your pillow. 😂😂
Maybe I do! Who knows… lol thank you.
I LOVE SPEKTRUM radios, soooooo much easier to set up than those Open PROTOCOL radios.
YES they are! I don’t even mess with my TX16S. It’s a nightmare!
