Blade 400 3D Remote Control Micro Helicopter RTF EFLH1400

Training flights of the Blade 400 3D RTF helicopter. Not much to see, but it is very stable. The Heli itself is nowhere near the quality of a Trex but then again a TREX needs all the extra bits to complete plus a lot of knowledge and time to assemble. Also it works out that even a basic TREX will cost double what one of these does. The Frame of the Heli is a little too plastic and a one piece affair but apears to be of reasonable quality. We have three of these flying at our club and the owners seem happy enough, especially when set up by our heli Guru.

The E-Flite Blade 400 3D is designed to give intermediate to advanced RC helicopter pilots a ready-to-fly experience like no other. It comes 100% factory built and flight tested so you can get flying right away. There is nothing left to assemble or set up. The E-Flite Blade 400 3D radio control helicopter is ready for hovering and 3D aerobatics as soon as you finish charging the battery. And you can fly it just about anywhere, anytime thanks to the included Spektrum 2.4GHz DX6i radio system that avoids interference with other RC users, even those on other 2.4GHz systems.

What is the difference of a normal Remote Control and of a Remote Control RTF ?

[chrisbofh]

RTF = Ready to Fly, though all RTF helis need a degree of setting up.

Dude, please don't post that marketing line from E-Flite. These things are never actually ready-to-go... they require adjustment before they fly. Do not give the impression that a helicopter noob could just buy this thing and fly it. If you know how to fly them, then yes, it's stable and easy, but if you've not flown before, you're going to be spending money on parts and likely be very frustrated. New pilots really should start with a CX2 or other trainer like that.

[chrisbofh]

I got asked to provide more info so I did.

A CX2 is not going to help you fly a blade 400, CX2's fly themselves!

A good quality flight Sim will help a lot, hours put into them = £££££ saved in repairs. And I have always said to put hours into the sim first, before you even buy any Heli (or plank)

hey can u tell me a lil about this heli

nice flying bythe way

[chrisbofh]

Theres a load of info on the right panel, just click more. :)

It seems to be a good kit, and it flys well when set up correctly. Make sure you get plenty of simulator time first though.

Rofl! The Harrier Plane At 0:17 Just Drops Dead Like A Fly

@jasmine2501 Ummmm, Mine was rock solid right out of the box. :) And they are all test flown before being packaged.

what are those orange balls on it lol

[frankygoestocanada]

I have one of these. And I own a Trex 500 and a Trex 550.  And I'm still using my blade 400. I had to change the swash plate servos though because the original ones are fragile. (Plastic gears inside are fragile). See my video at frankygoestocanada on YouTube.

I bought one of these from hobbytown and had it destroyed in five minutes. The sales guy made it sound easy enough to use.....

[CrazyHeliDude]

Really great stuff , I like the vid. keep up the great work, 5 stars

[briancristopher]

Wow, that is an amazing stable flight, nothing like my first Blade400 flight. Once I put it back together I hope my second flight is more like yours.
