Blade 230 S Smart Bind-N-Fly Basic Electric Flybarless Helicopter
this will be my last blade heli, This one had a defective flight controller and now it needs major repairs on the first flight completely lost its mind, I'm going with a better brand and and I'm gonna try not to be too upset about all the money I wasted.

you've heard it before trust me it's true avoid this brand completely. lesson learned.

i'm going to add a star, I feel maybe just a bad luck. I think this thing will fly again from the factory it had a bad ground from a pinched wire for tail motor which caused the tail rotor to turn on and off, causing the vicious crash. When I was replacing the boom the wire just fell off like it was clipped down by the frame so I think it was a manufacturing or quality control issue

Must've just gotten bad unit I guarantee you I'm not getting HH support from a smashed up helicopter. AM got me the parts and its back together and we'll see what happens. I enjoy working on this things but geez let's get some flight time first


update back to one star should be zero stars tail motor never function correctly brand new one has the same problem has to do with the flight controller this thing is absolute junk I would give it zero stars if I could and wish I could and I've moved on to goosky, you should too but I absolutely recommend the nano as first chopper. Otherwise just avoid this brand if you're old rc veteran just getting into heli like me. the thing that gets me is replacement parts are twice as much and half the quality for the blades it's just not cool. nano never breaks so no worries there.

Great chopper! The more I fly it, the more I love it. Still getting used to some of the safe features and overall controls. Definitely a chopper for experienced pilots. If your into helicopters, I highly recommend this one from Blade!!

It’s a great little helicopter but you need to respect
it. You should spend your first several flights just hovering.
CG is key and the slightest off balance will totally throw your control’s off. Save flying
