Neil, thank you so much for having me! This interview was an absolute blast to record, we got some very good info out there. And I also like how we of course stuck to the initially proposed 15-20 minutes 😂 Can't wait for next time!

We are blessed to have Jonas in our hobby.

This guy is bursting with excitement for helicopters. He is exactly what this hobby needed right now. Can't wait to see what's next from him and the design team.

This young man has talent. I took 3 years off from helis due to vertigo. I came back with omp m2 evo and m4 along with a puima 700. I will say my m4 outperforms my puima in every aspect. I.never liked small helis until the omp line. I started with a 600 nitro 16 years ago. The helis in tge last few years have come along ways thanks to young dudes like Jonas

Stellar interview. Your questions were top notch. Omp is lucky to have a designer/pilot/frontman in one. It really elevates their products

I'm so impressed with the Omp m4! Part way through building it and the design is brilliant, quality is top notch! Way to go Jonas and thank you Neil for the excellent interview.

Never change Jonas, be true to you and your passions. Absolute joy to have watched this interview and i learnt so much. even as a mid 50s old with 2years into the heli hobby.

Congratulations for such a great interview ¡¡¡¡

Such a great interview! Jonas, I love how you change in one moment from the serious design engineer into a boy talking abouts his greatest ever toy!! "the coming stuff... It's freakin aussum..." I love this passion for our hobby!! Good that Neil is really very interested and lets Jona talk without disturbing. Great stuff! And by the way, I love ,my M4 and all my M2's and M1's!!

Very enriching interview thanks for sharing !

Great interview

secret sauce in the tail: at 28:30 Jonas gives a great explanation of cause of tail slop and how to fix, and the M4 tail is fantastic!

Hi Neil, can you please have Jonas back to talk about the M4 Max? And also the M7! Thanks.

13:17 My M1 does that. Pump the pitch up and back to centre (zero) quickly, the tail will walk around. It doesn't affect actual flight, and it doesn't do it if you go negative instead of back to zero.

I hope one day there be a setup for Radio Master TX16S for Sprit GT with Geolink.

I went with the small Twin X-Lite S that is really comfortable. Ethos has lots of similarities to EdgeTX programming and small form factor (like the controller mentioned in the video) but with color touch screen, and I like the FrSky ACCESS protocol features (wireless firmware updates for Rx, Ability to share Rx with my other radios without needing to re-register, etc). Only useful though if you want to go with Ethos as it doesn't support OpenTX/EdgeTX. I don't miss OpenTX though after switching from using OpenTX exclusively since 2015. Mixing and such is very close to the same. You still have OpenTX type power but with the ability to use pre-built mixers if you want to go that route too or a combination of them.

I'd like to see a separate electric motor for the tail on the M4 like on the M2.

I’ve not been flying cause the regulations here in Germany basically make it impossible, but I’ve been thinking of grabbing a M1/2 and just ignoring some of the laws in place I have a 300 size heli What happens when you crank the head speed to 4.2k?

So it had nothing to do with OMP Designer and Engineer leaving to start Goosky.

Dear Jonas , I have been following you for a while , probably since you developed the accurc simulator ( That I have and love ) , I also followed your videos with Buddy RC 👍, I have two M2´s and I love them , as a matter of fact I sold my Mikado Logo 550 and a Goblin 500 because I can not afford paying for spare parts on any even small hard landing or mistake when practicing 3d , this is not the case with the Omphobby M2´s ¡¡¡ I am seriously considering the M4 as the one for me , what would be your advise ? and if I get one what FC should I get to be 100 per cent ok ???? Thank You in advance and congratulations ¡¡¡¡¡ you are a very talented young engineer and PILOT ¡¡¡¡

You should make the M 4 better by making the motor bigger - A longer carbon fibre Boom - Larger 420 Blades and call it "The M4 MAX'

Buy a goosky not a omp
