The Blade® 230 S Smart makes learning on a collective pitch heli a breeze. Building off the widely popular platform, this new version adds Smart technology making it easy for pilots to see important information at a glance. For those looking to hone their skills on a collective pitch machine, the 230 S Smart takes the flight experience to the next level.
