What about the fusion 480 smart super combo kit?
@@sawyerheslep8493 totally different ball game. The 480 can be tamed to fly as docile as the 230s..... actually it might even be more docile, but you have to factor in the "Intimidation" of flying alot bigger heli and then there's the cost factor. The basic combo is a little over $150 more dollars and like it says, basic. No electronics at all. Don't let me scared you away from it because it truly is a well built heli and it's performance is pretty much unlimited!
Very nice! I love RC helicopter content. I am into RC helis only myself. I have very good memories of the 230S, I had the original v1 when it came out some time ago. It was the very first helicopter I attempted a flip (which, by the way, went horribly wrong) but I managed to use Rescue to save the helicopter (actually the switch labeled with the Safe logo might be Rescue and not low/high rates, which would explain why it doesn't seem to do anything if you are on a controlled upright hover). That moment gave me the confidence to try it again and continue to progress. I really enjoyed that little heli it was really good at crashing, and very inexpensive to fix. I once slammed it against a chain link fence because I was flying at a little baseball diamond on a public park and the main blades didn't even break. I eventually moved out of Blade helis into "kit" helis and I have enjoyed every step. But every time someone asks me where to start with RC helis I always refer them to the Blade 230S. Just had one small comment on what you said on the video. The left stick up/down on RC helis is not Throttle, it is really Collective. The difference is that Throttle is always down to kill the motor and up to increase power to the motor. On helis, when you are flying upside down, that gets reversed, unlike airplanes. Other than that, great content love the excitement and that is feels really authentic. Keep it up and cheers :) Oh and shameless plug listen to Skids Up podcast and take a peek at my YT channel hehe
Awesome looking heli. Been flying since '78, mainly helis. I love your videos because you are both full of enthusiasm for the hobby. Keep up the great work both of you.
I flew a Blade CP many years ago. It was my first heli and it gave me so much fun learning to fly it. Nailing the hover was exhilarating. Then came the flip and then inverted hover. What a blast!
Allways love your channel you are the one that got me into this hobby 2 years ago and I got atleast 20 rc cars and trucks and I do thank u for the advise I received from you guys so I'm going to restart my channel
This was the heli that got me back into RC helicopters after being a beginner-level heli guy a long time ago. The 230S is the perfect combination of large enough to be controllable for a beginner and small and affordable enough for a newcomer. Love this bird!
These blades spin at a much faster rate than most RC planes and are much more dangerous for a beginner. I would recommend a fixed pitch helicopter like the SR-120 or 130 for beginners or an Ultra Micro copter.
Really good flight and the woman behind the camera done a very good job keeping it in sight! Nate and Abbie are truly a gift to the RC community and offer so much information whether it be Air,Ground, or Water. You guys ROCK!!!! Plus you're UK fans!
OK i think you have persuaded me into getting this one thanks for a great video keep them coming
SUPER COOL helicopter!! Looks FUN to fly!! GLAD Abby explained knoll word...I thought either your camera didn't focus OR I needed to clean my glasses!! GREAT JOB SAYLORS on this honest review!! So better bring it back!! 💟👍😘
Me and my wife have been watching the channel and have become obsessed with RC! Our son is about 2 1/2 and has his own little crawler he pushes around... surprised it's not broken yet. TLDR we've got an RC family now and we absolutely love and support the content. I just got a Mojave for myself, and my wife is picking out her first Air vehicle this week. Keep up the great work guys!
My fav current helicopter. Love it!
Thank yall so much for your informative post. Im getting one for Christmas and any information is useful..
Great to see a heli on the channel. Good flying too, with a little practice you’ll love flying them.
Great video. I need to get mine out. I bought a new 330 and haven't even flown it yet. I'm using a DX9.
You guys are great, so natural, awesome vid, everything I want to see and know, but... chilled..
I love the sound of the rotors.
Great first collective-pitch helicopter, if you get one that is good out of the box. My first one I bought in February had a nasty habit of going where it wanted to, regardless of my stick input! I thought it was my mistake, so I rebuilt it twice. With the blades off I then spooled it up on my workbench, and guess what? It moved the swash plate randomly with no input. No significant vibration to throw off the stabilization. Horizon Hobby reluctantly replaced it, and the new one flies beautifully! Thanks HH ! You did what was right! (PS- been flying fixed-pitch micro helicopters for 17 years) Thanks also for what you and Abby do!
"If a crash happens, it will be epic!" LOL I love this channel!!! Thank you for what you do!
Just ordered one, love your carrying case commentary 😂
Nice 🚁Flight Nate!!! Not much of a Helicopter 🚁 pilot but this sure looks fun.
Very nice!! Love your guys video’s.
I have two RTF helicopters I bought after seeing y'all review them over the years. The Blade 70S and Eachine E130. For a while last year, I considered buying the Blade Nano S2, but just never did. And then, though I'd never mentioned it, my daughter and SiL gave me one for Christmas. BNF. I got it bound and it works great with my DX-6e. Of course, I've never been brave enough to take it out of SAFE mode. :)
Damn now there something else I need to buy it looks tame enough its hard to keep up with you guys I just got a small airplane then a edf then came boats now on to heli's lol thanks nate and Abby I love seeing how the models preform before I buy them so thank you guys and for showing us the good and not so good.
That was great I can't wait to see another heli video.
I am going to get this helicopter because of you guys.
I just pulled my older 230s off the wall and got it back in the air and was glad I did. Smart makes it a perfect beginner Heli. Want to get back into heli and this is a great way to build up skill and confidence.
I'm with you Chandler. I just got back into RC after a 13+ year hiatus (life got in the way) and started with an Apprentice RTF plane. Flew that by myself with no issues. Picked up a NX10, S2100 charger and a UMX Timber that I flew in breezes today. I messed around with helis 15+ years ago, but beyond hovering and some FF, never got too far. I think this is the heli for me!
Y’all are awesome
That looks so cool
Good to hear your screed on the matter, just quest's.
Awesome. This is the most popular sport trainer heli horizon hobby sells. It’s one of the best you can buy. I put a UH1 Huey gunship fuselage on my blade 230S and love it.
I've watched a few of your heli vids (don't fly planes), and you impress the hell out of me! Your audio and video are EXCELLENT, as is your presentation --- spot on! A *LOT* of YTers I've watched could learn a *LOT* from you two! I'm AMAZED at the video and audio quality (AND camera work!). How are you getting such well stabilized video even when zooming in?!? Which camera are you using and HOW is the sound SOOOOO GOOOD when you don't appear to be wearing a lapel mic? Keep doing what you're doing cuz you're AWESOME! I *ALWAYS* like to give credit where credit is DUE! Cheers! :)
I've had a blade 230 vs2 for over two years now I've put about 2,000 flights on it .... one of the best helicopters I've owened
I picked up the BNF version a couple of months back. One caveat on it, is that the IC-2 to IC-3 adapter, which is not included with the BNF version, has been difficult to get. I ordered mine way back in early April, and it finally arrived last week. Fortunately, being a professional electronics technician, I put together my own temporary adapter so I could charge the battery and actually do stuff with the heli. So far, my flight experience with it has been just learning how to hover. The sound on the video, however, doesn't come near how cool it sounds in person.
Nice👍🏼
You got to love Nate his excitement is real unfiltered and totally infectious. Watching you guys is truly a guilty pleasure. #Saylorsrock
Thank you very much! That means a lot to us 🤜💥🤛
😎⚓
This is so far from being the smallest RC flingwing for beginners, but it looks like an pretty excellent lil model. I have an opportunity to pick one up, it just needs a replacement battery and canopy.
Very cool helicopter and that is a really nice storage box. I was wondering have you ever used any sort of fpv goggles with any of your vehicles?
Because of you two, I bought one yesterday!
Cool!
Love your content ! Maaaaan I wish my dad was like you. I’ve always wanted to start rc flying but shipping to my country is a bum. A local man was selling a cub s but I was late to get it. Anyway! Keep up the amazing content!!
Cool video
I tried to fly Helicopters 6 years ago. It was very scary. The 230s series of Heli's are what got me back into flying Heli's !
Thank you so much for supporting God, safe flying, and helicopters!
I know you're not into these as much as other things, but have you considered coming up to the IRCHA Jamboree? You can bring your Blade 230 and I'd be happy to spot for you on the flight line. 😄
Cheers, and keep flying (and driving, and boating...)!
Nice! I have 2 of them👍
You guys so awesome and cute. Love your review process and very easy to understand.
Thanks a lot Eric! That really means a lot 👍😁😎⚓
Nate, try inverted maneuvers on the simulator first and develop some muscle memory for each maneuver. When finally trying with the heli, fly over the grass until you get proficient. It won't save the heli if you go down but will minimize the damage. Take it from someone who has spent hundreds on heli rebuilds.
Nice review! Keep up the good work . the button that you indicated has no function is the panic button. if you turn it on, the helicopter will be straightened.
Nice helicopter
Prop wash is actually the effect of air from the propeller following behind an airplane. Helicopters do not have props they have blades and when the helicopter gets close to the ground and it gets tricky to hover this is simply called ground effect. The kill throttle safety feature is actually for doing autorotation landings! Cheers
It's called "Rotor Wash"
@@acme_tnt8741 "Rotor Wash" like "prop wash" happens at ANY altitude. What I was talking about is specifically "ground effect".
Cheers!~
Prop or rotor wash same same genius
@@coloradoroninnomad1336 So props and rotors are the same same then? Huh WOW I never knew **genius** more like dmba$z
Spray cheese is nasty
If you ever fly a 500 or 600 size it's like flying a Cadillac.. It's more steady and smoother... Loved flying my Align Trex 600 when I had it... Great to see too cause it's so big... Tip of the rotor blad to the tip of the tail rotor is 6 feet lol
They are beautiful creatures in the hands of a good 3d pilot.
This is an awesome helicopter, I have one myself and I’ve upgraded it to carbon fibre.
I managed to flip it too
i got this one last week, finally! i run 134g zee 3s 1500mah packs and i am.getting over 15min on a charge. i changed the connector to dx60 as that internal balamce ic2 is nowhere to be found for adapters! really terrible idea, spektrum.
it flies amazingly. does well, stable and its prerrt tough! i did have a bigger crash early on, broke a skid mount point amd bemr the tail boom but was able to straighten it all out. i was impressed with the durability. its all reteim flighted amd dialed in and i have about 8 packs through it and im able to poimt it at me and do some circles flying around. its a challenge i finally accepted.
do it! never stop learning!!!!
hi, i was about to order this rtf but it does not include battery and charger. can I you tell what I really need not spending too much on a charger to use those batteries you mention? best regards
@@MaRcIu27 u need a good lip charger and batteries. Can't avoid that cost. My charger was $100 one time cost and batts are $33/2 of them
yea this one,the airoscout .the habu fly on the nxs transmitter.so yea a big saving there if you have these .wont need the transmitter that comes with it
Love my 230s, but I wouldn’t think a beginner should fly one until they have a lot of simulator time under their belt…The 230s was my first heli, and I probably put $300 worth of parts into it before I learned to control it properly haha. Real flight works wonders
This thing is pretty dope. For the price, I can’t think of a better way to get into helicopters.
Nice to see my recommendation was taken under consideration 😁
And you were right about being able to learn with that heli, it's apparently one of the best bigger ones, I've even got one myself yet to be flown 🤣
100% Absolutely happy to feature requested RCs on our channel!! Might be a good weekend for you to maiden yours! 👍😁😎⚓
230 is a good helicopter but that said i think safe can Hinder you in learning Collective pitch flying they don't mix well a Panic or bailout switch works much better in my opinion plus I would also add the omp m2 is a better heli but probably not as beginner friendly as the 230
Definitely the best 230s they have made so far but that’s just because of the new Mini 6250 FBL. Really wish Blade would update the 230 with a carbon main frame and more power motor.
First time seeing such a heli
Flywing FW450 is a right smart Heli, Been flying it last few weeks, Runs 3 to 4s video on my channel flying through fpv an recorded HD video.
U probably need space for new helicopters too and Ive got a good home for that one. Plenty of land to ru around in and not get hit by cars. Youre right about Prop Wash, its the same as flying a drone near a wall, the air current will suck your drone right into it and ya cant pull away
Heck with the helicopter I want the box!
🤜💥🤛 You get it! 😎⚓
Just got mine. I also just got a new NX8 for it. Have you flown it on a NX?
Wow. I bought that radio last year to go with a model from local hobby shop. I looked so hard everywhere for some type of info on it. I am used to drones so I figured it out eventually. A couple switches seem to do nothing. Now here you are on a random video explaining how it works. Lol. 1 question tho. Is that radio programmable in any way? Or it just whatcha get for the bottom line radio.
I have had mine now for o e year and crashed it for the first time some days ago - but I love it and it flies great 😊😀
Sorry to hear about your crash but glad to know that you love yours 👍😁😎⚓
@@TheRcSaylors luckily just broke a blade and I bought 2 so I am fine 😊
Always put throttle hold on after you land so you can safely pick it up in case you bump the throttle with finger or your body
No mention of recovery either ..lol.
you can practice with that exact helicopter on RF9, I'm actually learning to fly a helicopter with that exact helicopter.
This winter I definitely plan to log some RF time 👍😁😎⚓
Passando pra prestigiar aquele like e fortalecer o canal 😉✌👍
Yep fly high and you can use the painc recovery which you didn't mention I don't think u did but good flight.🤔🤔
How would you compare this with the 150S? Is this better or is the 150S better? This RTF comes with a transmitter, but the 150S doesnt I think? Which flies better and has more features?
Just make sure you can get ahold of the ic3 adapter to charge the lipos. Mines finally in the mail been on backorder for months.
Check your box again, mine came with an adapter.
@@darnmg correct for the RTF. Alot of people that bought this and the umx a10 in BNF weren't able to get it for quite a while. Mine came last week so im happy now.lol
Ah, I normally do buy bind and fly however I planned on taking this with me on my motorbike rides four bonus rc fun and didn't want to risk my NX 8 transmitter.. thanks for gently putting me straight 😆
Nate love the helicopter anyways not anything to do with the helicopter but do u think I should buy the traxxas rusler 4x4 brushless
I have to spend a lot of time in the simulator before I bring this Heli up again. Upgrade to a carbon fiber tail boom, mine got bent so quick.
Good evening Nate and Abby question isn't that the same transmitter that you get when you get the Habu STS if so can't you just bind that up that transmitter also
id like to see what stunts it does nate .as i have the small eachine 129 which is fairly easy to fly .as well. also got auto stability altitude hold..which im sure youve done in an earlier video.
I havent been too naughty this year.Giggity !!! But im wishn and a hopen Santa brings me one for Christmas....
I think thats the right size for me cuz my little xk110 just sits on the shelf because weve had wind everyday for 3 months now. Its getting aggravating not being able to fly
wow COOL I WANT 3
Still fly the xk k110 I was looking to buy the echine e180
I have the first version Blades 230s night. It flies horrible. The tail motor is always lagging to sudden pitch so, it's always losing tail control
We fly fix wing my son wants to fly rotor wing would this be a good choice.
To check dual rates, pirouette and see how fast it rotates, flip the switch and do another pirouette and see which is faster. High rates is the fastest one of course.
That looks like a fun heli. Try out a 700 with 13 degrees of pitch.. it will change your life.. 👍
Don't worry about stunts, learn to fly without the auto level. I learned with auto level on my drones. Then the SIM, then acro drones, then acro heli. It's kind of a backwards way to learn but you'll get there. By acro I simply mean no auto level, stunts and inverted are another step. I like this heli for the size and I think they have aftermarket canopies for it as well
What would yall recommend giant rc helicopter for intermediate to expert
I'm trying to find the ready to fly version like you guys have with radio and everything but cannot find it. You know why or where I could?? Thanks 😁
AMAZON BRÜ.
Is there any inside info on a v3 coming out ?
Question...i have a 230s v2 not smart that needs a reciever..is it possible to replace reciever with a smart reciever and smart esc and be ok??? Thanks for any info
That’s awesome, let’s see you try 3D, ha ha. If you want it to sound even cooler when the rotor blades decelerate after landing is increase the pitch as they are decelerating.
Always remember to fly 1 mistake high when trying new manuvers
Nice shirt Nate. LOL
Get down on it . Like an American, love ya guys.
You guys sold me a echien mini corsair and now im thinking about this thing they are not paying you enough
They got a free $250 helicopter. 😉
I went to my local hobby shop to get the omphobby helicopter but it wasn’t a rtf but this awesome heli was sitting right next to it so I ended up getting it 😆
Good choice Donnie! We would appreciate using our links for purchases if you enjoy our videos as it greatly helps to support our channel and family at no extra cost to you! Happy Flying 👍😁😎⚓
@@TheRcSaylors I really do enjoy y’all’s videos I consider you guy’s one of the best rc hobby channels on UA-cam, you guys are always honest about the rc models and that’s very important, also I would have use your link to buy rc’s but I travel for work and can’t order online because I’m always out of town so I can only buy in person. If it wasn’t for that I definitely would have ❤️🚁😆
Got mine 2 weeks ago, 2nd flight the tail boom bent. Thing came flying at me, I could not react fast enough to hit the panic button. Not sure if pilot error or what, I fly FPV LOS Drones a lot.
Trust me, it was pilot error...lol. 3 days ago my 250 cfx came backwards, I cut power and it fell at my feet. Pilot Error.
Hey guys I just got this from a friend but I don't have the instructions please let me know where I can get a manual
1000 Likes ...
you know what that means.😉
Successs !!
Oh no... 😬😬😭🤪😎
Very twitchy tail on mine, out of the box. Any suggestions?
Has anyone had problems with keeping it at the same altitude while trying to hover mine is constantly going up and down
