I just wish there was no music. Would like to hear the heli and how the motors perform. Anytime I hear music on a new product video I always think they are hiding something! Lets see a video that shows all aspects of the heli please!!! :-)

Definitely a Blade 200 SRX on steroids. Smart move with the metal gear servos. Looks like a good bird for none hard core 3D flyers that want collective pitch in a easy and simple to maintain package.

I wish this was out when I was learning to fly cp helis, I learned on a SR. Still wouldn't mind having one to play around with. Would be a great next heli for my wife.

Great video and cool music 
I like this one !

I wonder if they are using a different 2 in one esc. The 200 srx would cut out on me and go into the pirouette of death

If they have resolved that I'd be interested especially if they get a bond in fly

anyone know where to get flight setup for dx6 for the 230 s

[jasoncameron]

this 230s looks awesome but it has the annoying 3 blade prop as the 200 srx has but it works great cant wait to try it out

Have just purchased this and realised that no matter where you fix lipo the CofG will be tail heavy, lipo weight to light to  get correct balance.

Wonder if it will come bnf also. Be blessed

This is going to be perfect for me! I am really getting my 3D down on some 3D quads that I have, and have been practicing on my Nano CPX. I just bought a use 180 CFX the day before this came out. I think I will keep the 180 gorunded, and get this 230, and practice on this with the bail out till I realy feel comfortable to move on to the 180. Oh what the hell am I saying. I will fly and crash both of them having a lot of fun. ;)

The tail noise on this heli is the most annoying i have ever heard i can barely stand to fly it is so loud and the constant changing squealing pitch just drives me fing nuts

[urbanfox]

Out of the box, 1 very tail heavy, 2 manual just an advert and not very helpful, 3 no mention in manual about checking CofG, 4 had to re program servo neutral position, 5, Lipo to small to balance heli, 6 if inexperienced cp pilot flew this out of the box it would end in disaster, so much for flight ready, I suggest ignore hh and give this thorough check before flight. Far from impressed!
