M5 kit (for mini servos) - orange

The OMP HOBBY M5 is a high-performance "550" class helicopter designed to meet the requirements of pilots who are just starting out with large helicopters, sport pilots, modelers and 3D fighters when installing the appropriate engine and electronics. The M5 was designed with an emphasis on minimizing inertial moments in all three axes, which, together with the main and tail rotor control system with a large range of deflections, offers incredible control authority and maneuverability. A number of solutions fully proven in the "bigger and older brother" M7 were used.
The M5 allows for the installation of a wide range of motors and electronics, so straight out of the box or with the use of tuning parts, it easily meets the requirements of seasoned 3D pilots and allows them to use their most popular and thoroughly tested equipment.
