I do have another question for you lol did you gain any range by doing this? I would imagine yes or do you not really know because you probably didn’t use the factory stuff much? Super curious what the max range is you can get with tour setup ( hypothetically if you could see it like if you had an FPV camera on it like how far will it go reliably lol)

Do you have a link to that tail prop ? Just a matter of swapping it? Let me send mine to you to have it all done 🤣
@BladeScraper 3 күн бұрын
The OMP part number is OSHM2038. Unfortunately it's not just as easy as swapping it, you have to drill out the center to fit it on the C189 motor. I used the method of trial and error lol. It's probably off balance but it works. I'm not sure what the technically correct size drill bit to use would be.

@ I definitely definitely want to replace the noisy ass stock one. Thank you, preferably, I could just find one that will bolt right up or if I have to replace the motor to get one that will bolt right up. I may go that route.

Is it neccasary to do this if i just bind it to a tx16s radiomaster instead? Wouldnt that give it a smoothe flight?
@BladeScraper 3 күн бұрын
I don't think that would make a difference, the real difference is in the FC software (Rotorflight).

@ ;( i’m kind of a noob and I’m learning still I bought this as my first helicopter and I really want it to be as smooth as possible. I would even be willing to pay someone to do this to mine lol, by watching your video, it looks very involved more than I’m willing to do probably at least right now anyway
@Truth.Love.Liberty 3 күн бұрын
@ you would think that, however there’s a video of another guy on here flying the C138 with optical flow and the factory radio it flies like complete crap, then he switches over to the TX 16 and it flies absolutely perfect. It will hold a exact position. That’s what I want. My C189 to do. Thoughts?

Nice work. A wedge tip for your iron will make life much easier for you. Also when you buy electronics (LEDs, resistors, caps, etc.) and you only need one or two, always buy 100. You'll build stock over time and almost never run out. Also you can get spools of silicone wires of most colors in a complete kit. Another life saver instead of burning through a JST kit which is more useful on its own.

It definitely has some limitations being built cheaply as more of a toy, but with good software and some initiatives like greasing the blade grips, you can make it considerably better :) I much enjoy flying mine, even though I'm not really into scale flying.

I know it's not built for it but is it capable of inverted hovering? Like if you pull a loop stop at the top inverted pause for a second or 2 then proceed with loop.
