M1 EVO BNF - white

CCPM aileron board controlled by electronically mixed servos, flybarless "paddleless" rotor head with 3G three-axis gyroscopic system instead of the usual mechanical stabilizer and gyro stabilizing the helicopter around the vertical axis, powerful AC motor and electronic speed controller with governor function, intelligent control unit enabling operation in the mode of tilt stabilization suitable for helicopter beginners as well as in 3D mode for wild acrobatics without limits - you can find all this in the M1 EVO microhelicopter with a 290 mm rotor diameter!

Let's take a closer look at this latest gem from the design offices of OMP Hobby. The basis of the hull construction is a duralumin engine bed and main shaft housing with attached carbon sidewalls and crossbars, a plastic skid landing gear and a profiled duralumin tube tail beam with a carbon vertical stabilizer. The frame houses a Sunnysky® R23-2 AC electric motor with a rotating casing that drives the supporting rotor directly, without the usual gears (Direct Drive). Likewise, the balancing rotor is directly driven by the Sunnysky® R08-2 miniature AC motor. Thanks to this, the entire mechanism is maximally simplified, problems with rubbing slides, brushed gears or slipping drives disappear.

The robust 3 mm main shaft is housed in ball bearings. The cycler plate is made of duralumin, as is the rotor head with blade carriers. Thanks to the 3G flybarless system and the electronic CCPM, the rotor head is very simple. The tail rotor blades are a beautiful miniature of the tail rotors of the "big" RC helicopters - with all the ball bearings and shock absorbers!

The electronics of the helicopter consist of an intelligent control unit with an integrated 3G flybarless control unit, an electronic speed controller with a governor function and three DS2045 digital picoservos with metal gears controlling the CCPM (120°) mixed cycle board. To control the helicopter, you will need at least a six-channel RC set with a miniature receiver with an S.BUS port (or also DSM/DSMX). For ordinary flying, the transmitter doesn't even need to be computerized (all the necessary mixes are provided by the control unit), just 4 channels "on sticks" and a fifth channel with a two-position switch for switching between control unit modes with stabilization and 3D are enough. Of course, for full-fledged classic and 3D flying you need a computer transmitter with adjustable 2-3 flight modes with at least five-point collective curves for hovering and acrobatics and another mode for autorotation.

The easy-to-remove sports cabin is made of a very light molding made of durable plastic - you can choose from three color schemes guaranteeing good visibility and "readability" of the helicopter's position in the air. The helicopter is powered by a two-cell LiPo battery 7.4 V 350 mAh with a load capacity of 50C (with a JST-XH connector) stored on the underside of the fuselage. It will provide you with up to 9 minutes of simple flying or up to 4 minutes of aggressive 3D acrobatics.

The helicopter is delivered completely assembled with a pre-set control unit, so just unpack the helicopter, connect your S.BUS compatible receiver, charge the drive battery, set up your transmitter according to the detailed instructions with illustrative pictures, check all the functions of the helicopter - and you can take off!

The M1 EVO is a full-fledged 3D helicopter with a controlled collective - and as such it assumes and requires adequate piloting experience. It's not a "drone" where you just add gas, it takes off and hangs "like a nail" without any steering intervention. The M1 EVO will be thoroughly enjoyed by intermediate to advanced pilots who already have experience flying collective ("six-channel") helicopters. However, with a sufficient amount of perseverance, humility, prior diligent training on a computer RC simulator, under the supervision of an experienced pilot and using the stabilized mode, even a novice helicopter pilot can start flying with the M1 EVO.

ARF helicopter set includes: 100% assembled and ready to fly M1 EVO model, 7.4V 350mAh 50C LiPo drive battery, Allen screwdriver, flat wrench, charging cable, hard EPP foam box with hinged lid for safe transport and storage of the model, instructions for operating the model and setting the control unit.
