Blade 230s RTF Helicopter Slightly BLH1500

Fun for thos with 4 channel heli experience

This is a great buy for advancing your learning from 4 channel helis with flybar or electronic stabalization to collective pitch. It allows you to start basically as a typical 4 channel fixed pitch helicopter to collective pitch with realized greater power and manuvarability. I bought this to study helicopter aerodynamics for a private heli license after mastering the Blade 200 SRX. It proivdes 3 decreasing levels of "stability" where the first is equivalent to the Blade 200 SRX. Due to the increased 230 power, one is not forced to learn proper aerodynamic manuvers where required power exceeds available power as the Blade 230 demands. However, the increased power allows handling of higher winds than the 200 as well as performing manuvers/ stunts in two advanced steps beyond "stable" mode. I liked this enough to buy 2 given the relatively low cost although a bit more complicated to fix than the 200. Lots of fun for sure!!Read full review

Outstanding

I purchased the Blade 200 srx and 230s and both have what I call calm flying. No more of the panic I have with my FB 450 Heli's. I can do nose in flight which I never could do with my old 450 Heli's. Buy them you won't regret it. And I am retired and if I can do it well I think you can to. Thanks to everyone who engineered this product. And when I bought them they are used but I can't see that they are like newRead full review

Not for a beginner

I been flying for about 2 years helicopters are by far the hardest thing to fly but they are fun they make me nervous when I fly them but they're a lot of fun do not put this helicopter in 3d mode unless your a pro at flying helicoptersRead full review
