Bladerunner Helicopter
Bladerunner Helicopter
The remote control BladeRunner 2 Helicopter is by far the best indoor flying machine we’ve seen so far. The world’s best selling indoor chopper now comes with 50% more power thanks to a 450mAh Lithium Polymer battery.
This means you can achieve flights of 15 minutes or more between charges, all you have to do is charge it from the mains, it’s that easy.
The counter-rotating double blades make the Bladerunner easy to fly and provide incredible stability, as they stop any torque spin you would usually get from a standard single rotor helicopter.
There’s a trim slider on the side of the helicopter to control the amount of torque, so you simply adjust this to get a perfect balance.It’s made of a very lightweightmaterial, so it’s easier to control than other R/C helicopters, and thanks to the pre-installed three channel Proportional Radio you can achieve precise three dimensional control.
The Bladerunner 2 flies backwards, forwards left and right and even hovers, giving you time to figure out your next trick!
The underbody of the helicopter is fitted with a green flashing LED strobe light, and the nose with a bright white LED search light.
The Blade Runner comes assembled and ready to fly, you’ll learn new flying techniques in no time at all, and we guarantee you’ll have a ball!
