OMP M4 - Canada Day 2023
I always throw this little heli in the car so I have it when good weather presents itself... as it did on this evening.

Some more back yard flying with the OMP M2 Evo. This is a great little heli for casual, at home flying!

It's been a few years since I've gotten any enjoyment out of flying helis. The little M1 by OMP has sparked my interest once again. This thing flies like a larger model, but has the convenience of size for most people's back yard. Life has gotten pretty busy, and this allows me to enjoy a quality machine without making a trip to the field.

I've got a handful of flights on this small built-up foam airplane. It's going to be my go-to evening fun flyer at events this coming season. 3S 1300mah packs make it economic to run. Huge performance from a small model.

ah...would we rather crash into dry land or into water...well on dry land i guess we all agree there will be damage but in water i guess if you disconnect the battery quickly and dry the electronic mechanisms out you might get lucky....i guess u could drown geting to the model if u were not carefull wheras on land you walk up to your heli remains and collect it in a bag or your jumper.
Hi Colin, my name is Jeff George. I saw your for-sale post on the BBF forum. Is this model still for sale?
@@boeing747400ifly Hi Jeff, I've since sold the airplane. Sorry for not updating the post earlier.
I have a zx6r and it making a clanking sounds only in 2nd gear when I get on the gas but if I pull the clutch in and rev you don’t hear it and it’s only in 2nd gear I have it on my page to
I remember this was the coolest quad ever when it first released
Very cool. If i use a radiomaster 16tx can i use the conventional receiver in the app? Any suggestion?
Oi amigo me dê uma informação como e fasso pra enroscar as artes preta nós links que vai no servo está entrando torto e o cabo do esc está curto pra levar até o receptor
Hi ,own zx6r 08 ,cluth is not slipping and is changing good but after getting hot a whistle noise came from clutch when the clutch is pressed,need to change the clutch?
Which of the Unilight did you install? I see so many options. Thanks
Hey Colin, have a question about your canopy, did you smoke spray it from the inside?
One of the better chain videos but 1¾ inch chain slack is the largest amount ive ever heard of on a road bike. My FZ8N says 25 to 30mm or about 1 inch.
Why go through the hassle of measuring them? Why not just replace all the plates
Why go through the hassle of measuring anything? May as well just replace it all 🤷
@@ColinBell321 yea that's what I'm asking
@InernalCombustion that was sarcasm... you measure/inspect them because there is a service limit listed in the manual. If you like throwing away potentially good parts, go ahead and replace everything. Why bother measuring brakes, why not change oil every ride?
@@ColinBell321 right but I'm assuming people buy a clutch kit, unless you can buy individual clutch plates.....🤣. You mean to tell me that every time your clutch slips you buy an entire clutch kit and use one or 2 of the plates?
@InernalCombustion fair point 😆. This was a race bike, and I had a bin full of spare plates. Ones that measured bad got tossed, and the good ones saved for a later date.
This is a great video on this topic
whatever happened with part 2?
I’m sorry why not just replace everything and not be cheap pay once cry once and not have to take it apart every time
Hey i got a question from an old video. Do you remember where you got that carbon fiber swingarm from the chain tension video?
whered you get that swingarm?
Were you trying to crash the heli?
Thanks for video I was able to adjust chain myself
That was so awesome!
Sick flying dude! Seems like you're enjoying the M4 :)
Thanks man! Yes, really enjoying the M4 - it's small enough to bring anywhere, and big enough to fly in all conditions well.
Haha! Local dragonflies are reporting an alien invasion! They are also jealous that the alien flies better than they do! Cheers, John
Mentioned nothin about needing a torque wrench Not listed in your tools👎🏽
Because you don't "need" one. If you are uncomfortable with what an appropriate torque feels like, you should grab one.
He said you will need one in the beginning if you were paying attention. Though he didn't use one because it's clearly not his first rodeo but feel free to use one if you must. He is not your mechanic nor is responsible for anything you do
Good grief folks. TORQ SPECS are indentified in YOUR Service Manual. Each bike is different. While some specs will be the same, many are not. And if you can't afford a $120 (or less) Service Manual, at least get off your lazy ass and go down to your dealer and request a Torq Spec printout!!
If you are removing the front wheel, why the heck would you rest the calipers on top of the wheel? That makes no sense at all. Get some bungee cords and suspend the calipers from your handlebars or some other secured point. Not the wheel.
He didn't put callipers on wheel.
He meant the fairing bro
"promo sm"
When I loosened up the left 2 screws oil started to drip from the fork, why is that
Unbelievable how those things stay together under all that stress. I’m stressed just watching it! 🤣🤣🤣 Amazing control. So, the helicopter can do basically whatever pops into your mind, eh? Cheers, John
You are the best
Is there any certain orientation that clutch hubs needs to be reinstalled?
Thanks for the video, helped on my own racebike
I bought a 04 zx-6r, drove great and shifted good for the first couple rides till one I turned it off and went to first gear with the clutch and it just died, I can see the clutch moving in the casing but it still dies and when the bike is off there is still some resistance to movement with the clutch lever fully engaged. Not sure what could be the issue or what's causing it not to fully disengage the clutch? Your help would be great.
Most likely turned out to be a poorly adjusted cable preventing the clutch fully engaging.
Your video is a little better than most that I've seen I'm a beginner to motor bikes but I've spent over 30 years working on hot rods so far your video is the best
What break in time and top speed or rpm can go after get new clutch I was told 6 rpm and 500 miles ... maybe thats wrong or maybe it doesn't matter ? Sucks driving slow maybe some one has better info then what I was told or if some one can confirm it is just what it is. 2022 zx10r
Your video is well appreciated my guy Thanks
what are you currently doing in rc these days? are you still competing or just causal ! you are an amazing pilot just haven’t seen much
I just picked one up on sale at Great Hobbies 80 bucks off.
You'll enjoy it!
@@ColinBell321 also purchased the FM Edge 47” version $100.00 off
Does it matter where the friction plates are inserted? I noticed there a divet on each one and you put them on the gear in different orientations.
Definitely incredible video. Extremely helpful!!
I took me about 10 ft of wire and screw ups to get a decent result, don't get discouraged if you mess up... A lot lol. Biggest help from this video was the manual twist to sink that wire closer to the bolt head, thanks!
☠BLACK BARON☠ 7:35 It's not easy to unmount this stuff in scale helicopters (600-800size) to check and exchange plastic gears and ball bearings if it starts making strange noises.
Did you ever actually mess with the chain tightening in this vid or did I miss that.
Colin still got it!! Sexy..
My clutch cable broke I was able to get a replacement, wasn’t the same one I had but it works, now my bike won’t speed passed 60-70mph it just redlines if I full throttle even if I shift it up to 6th gear it doesn’t want to go passed 60mph, can it be cause of my clutch? I know before I was having issues getting my bike into gear when I try an do a pull. It like slips
Great advice- Thankyou 👍
Rigth to the point!!! Thanks a lot
Hi Colin watching you from Portugal. Great Video. Bought an accidented (small) ZX6R with 50KKm couldnt engage the clutch and after moving ajusting cable screws plus pressing several times the cluch lever it worked. While riding the bike when i wanted to acelarate fast it would increase rpms but not the speed. Slipping I guess. Next day clutch had a litle course, bike would start moving slowly and, after some tries, I could engage 1st gear but releasing the lever the bike would not move even when accelerating. Any advice, would you say this is a clutch problem? Cheers and keep up with your great videos.
Thanks for the kind words Jorge. That defenitely sounds like a slipping clutch. Do you have any free play in the clutch lever when it's released?
@@ColinBell321 Not really, but due to your first answer I opened the full system cleand it, considering that the bike didn't work for a little while, and...solved. God Bless.
Awesome flight you got skills.❤️
** note to viewers, do not use a punch to hammer down your bearing
Whats the issue with tapping it down against the outer race only? Any valid reason?
@@ColinBell321 metal hammer, metal punch. Metal on metal, on a bearing, nope. I'm not saying your bearings wont be perfectly fine and i'm sure you did it with great care but as for making an educational video showing people to hammer your bearings in with a punch.... nah mate.
It won't hurt the bearing whatsoever. If you push it in with a socket and press, you're still metal on metal, and using more force (assuming you don't use heat).
I think what he’s getting at is you should A) use an object that will cover the entire surface of the bearing (socket) Or B) use a softer metal/ material so you don’t gouge the bearing While you were cautions, somebody could watch this, try it, not proactive great care, and be made at you that their bearing got chewed up
Ineed help finding the clutch kit for a good price
Thank you
