OverviewLooking for the ultimate in sport quadcopter performance, look no further! The 200 QX is the little brother of the 350 QX and was designed with power in mind so you can not only carry a payload, but can have a blast with aerobatics too.The 200 QX is the perfect blend of power and functionality, making it one of the most fun-to-fly products we’ve designed to date. Everything from the translucent body with internal lighting to the incredible power, the 200 QX is sure to please everyone who gets their hands on it!FeaturesSAFE Technology equippedThree flight modesHigh performance brushless motorsInternal LED illumination for easy orientation and night flyingOptional camera available separatelyNew Firmware UpdateThe firmware update for the Blade 200 QX unlocks three additional flight modes so you can experience the aerobatic potential of the 200 QX. While the updated firmware software is free, the Blade 200 QX update cable is required to install the software to a 200 QX. Additionally, pilots must install the appropriate propellers prior to flight in order to experience each flight mode to its full extent.Stability (Bailout)The Stability (Bailout) Mode is similar to Stability Mode for upright flight. In this mode the throttle is offset to run only from 51% to 100%; this throttle curve helps prevent a pilot from accidentally flying into the ground when flipping out of inverted flight and back to an upright position.3D Stagility3D Stagility Mode features a self-leveling characteristic that's active when the control sticks are released. Whether you're flying inverted or upright, the 200 QX will self-level so you can learn inverted flight with mild assistance. When flying in this mode, 0-50% throttle is reversed thrust and 51%-100 is positive thrust.3D Agility3D Agility Mode was designed for experienced pilots, anyone who has mastered inverted flight in all orientations and advanced pilots looking for a full 3D flying experience with no self-leveling. When flying in this mode, 0-50% throttle is reversed thrust; 51%-100 is positive thrust.

Great quad-rotor remote controlled helicopter, but documentation is missing vital information
This is a radio controlled quad-rotor helicopter. It is made by Blade Helis, which is one of the only U.S. based RC aircraft manufacturers I know of. It is *very* fast, stable, and a ton of fun to fly.When you buy this unit, you will receive the helicopter, one battery, a battery charger, and a toolkit. You'll need to attach the landing gear, which requires you to screw in two screws using the included hex wrench. Flight time is about 6-7 minutes, so you'll want to purchase a few extra batteries. You can also purchase an optional HD video camera that mounts on the bottom and will allow you to record video of your flight.In order to fly the 200 QX, you will need to purchase a separate remote control. Most of the remotes made by Spektrum RC will work. My remote of choice is the Spektrum DX6i. The instruction manual includes information on how to configure most of the remotes, but there are a few settings that are important but which are not mentioned in the user manuals. Here's how I succesfully configured by DX6i:From the Menu in the DX6i:Travel Adj -> (Set the physical Gear Switch to 0) Gear -> 100; (Set the physical Gear Switch to 1) Gear -> 40Sub Trim -> Throttle -> +10 (This part is missing from the documentation, but necessary to start the rotors spinning)Flaps -> Norm Flap -> UP 100; Land Flap -> DOWN 100Mix 1 -> Change Inh to Act and selectMix 1 -> Gear -> Gear Act Rate D -> 0% U +100% SW Mix Trim InhSetup List -> Model Type -> AcroModel Name: 200 QXReverse -> Gear (Reverse); all others (Normal)Thro Cut -> Position -> Act (not in the manual, but needed to stop the rotors spinning when you're done flying)D/R Combi -> D/R Swi -> AileTimer -> Down; Timer-> 06:30; Switch -> TrainerBefore you start flying charge the battery fully.If you are using the DX6i remote that I recommended, set the trim buttons on your remote to 0 on each axis. The remote will issue a long beep when you reach 0. This is very important! The rotors won't turn on unless the trim on the throttle is set in a specific position. The exact position required to start the rotors spinning is slightly above zero, but I took care of that with the Sub-Trim setting (above).Pair the remote control with the helicopter using the instructions in the user manual. Then turn on the remote control and the helicopter following the instructions in the manual.Unlike most Blade Helicopters, you cannot start flying simply by lifting the throttle up. Instead, you have to move the left stick to the bottom right hand corner while at the same time moving the right stick to the bottom left hand corner, and then releasing both sticks at the same time. This motion will cause the rotors on the helicopter to start spinning, but the heli will not lift off of the ground. You can also start the rotors by moving the throttle to the left and then to the right, while at zero throttle. Once the rotors are spinning, you can lift off by raising the throttle (left stick).If this start procedure doesn't work, you need to adjust the trim on your throttle upwards. As you adjust the trim, listen for the 200 QX to make a pattern of beeps. Once it does so, use the start process I described in the paragraph above. If you are using a DX6i and if you set the sub-trim as I recommended in the settings (above), this step should not be necessary.The Gear and Mix buttons are used to select between the three flying modes, and are reflected by the big LED in the center of the Heli. Green means easy mode (self-leveling, very low banking). Blue means advanced mode (self-leveling, high banking). Red means free flying (no self-leveling). While flying, the unit will indicate a low battery condition by flashing the LED lights periodically. When that happens, land the helicopter right away to prevent over-discharging the battery.When you're done flying and you land the helicopter, the blades will continue spinning. Hit the Throttle Cut button on the DX6i to shut them down before attempting to remove the battery. If your remote doesn't have a Throttle Cut button (DX5), you have to move the sub-trim down manually until the blades stop spinning.

Awesome - I've been waiting 20 years for something like this!
I've been messing with RC helicopters for about 20 years, but have never become an expert. The trouble was that either the helicopter i bought was too easy and boring, or I'd overstep and buy one that scared me too much to fly. No one wants to reassemble and re-trim an RC helicopter with collective pitch.But then there was the Blade 200 QX. Check out some google videos... The various flight modes are perfectly set to tune the amount of "challenge" you want. This is the first RC aircraft that I've been willing to fly fast...and I mean fast. Even if it crashes and breaks. You're looking at $30 and an hour of your time (not days like a helo). Not to mention, it doesn't destroy itself upon impact. Rather, it stops the blades and beeps so you can find it when you lose it in a tree on your maiden flight (Look, it was really far away and I lost orientation for a second, okay?!?).On second thought, don't buy one. I'd rather have you be jealous of mine, haha!

Best quad ever.
Another blade fan boy review. Started with the 180 then grabbed this and now own a 350 qx. This by far has been my best quad. It is fragile in its current configuration and will break with a straight drop to one of the arms but I solved that problem and purchased a carbon fiber frame and now I can crash it all day long with no issues. I've flown this in normal, 3d and in fpv configurations and it is perfect. It has plenty of power and will zip to the sky in an instant. Its great for shooting video, I use my Mobius when I fly this and it flies great with the added weight. Only draw back is with stock body the battery doesn't last too long I was getting about 6 minutes depending on how I was flying, so gear up with extra batteries and a hobby grade charger for more fun. I will be purchasing another so I don't have to keep converting back and forth between fpv and 3d flight setups. Another great thing about this quad is the leds, they are very bright and will help you navigate at night for night flying fun.

Excellent Quad, well worth the $$$
I cannot express how great this quad is. It can be flown calmly with great control, aggressively with speed and precision, and can even be upgraded with factory firmware and props to do 3D inverted flying. Its a bit pricey at $230 without a remote (cheapest Spektrum DXe is $60), but well worth the quality and customer support. One of the controller boards had an issue on mine, and after a 10 minute conversation, customer support sent me a new board free of charge. Here are some useful facts I wish I had before buying:The MLP4DSM radio from the Blade Nano Qx works, but you only get stability mode/low rate (green) + agility mode (red)... no stability/high rate (blue). Also, this remote is not full range, so it may loose bind with the quad after some distance. You're better off with a full range radio like the Spektrum DXe or DX5.My setup is the stock 200qx with the landing gears removed (saves about 10g).Battery Life (minutes) with stock E-Flite 800mah-20C battery flown until LVC (3.71V per cell, healthy for battery longevity). :- Indoor hover = 11m00sec- Outdoor gentle flight (green mode) = 10min30sec- Outdoor aggressive flight (blue mode) = 6-8min- 3D (not tested) = typically reported to be 5-6minGreat replacement batteries:- E-Flite 800mah 30C- Venom 800mah 30C (10:30 hover, lvc, 3.70 (added 680mah) --- EXCELLENT- Heard good things about Glacier, Giant Power, and Tenergy.Horrible batteries with high internal resistance:- Flureon 1200mah: 8:30 hover, lvc, 3.75 (added 480mah)- Flureon 1000mah: 7:45 hover, lvc, 3.77 (added 420mah)
