Good news for the nitro crowd! OMPHOBBY has officially announced the M7N, a purpose-built 90-size nitro helicopter in the 700 class. It made its world debut at the 2026 IRCHA Jamboree in the US, and OMPHOBBY says it's "available soon".
What is the M7N?
The M7N borrows proven components from the M5, M6 and M7R, but the layout has been designed around a nitro engine from the start. OMPHOBBY says it's one of the lightest 700-class nitro helis around, without giving up frame stiffness.
