Blade Revolution 235 CP RC Helicopter Overview – Powered by Aerobertics
For nearly a decade, more pilots have learned to fly CP (Collective Pitch) helicopters with the Blade 230 S than with any other model. The Blade Revolution 235 CP takes everything that made the 230 great and elevates it to new heights. With cutting-edge updates and new features, this helicopter is designed to make flying easier, more capable, and far more durable than ever before.
Equipped with exclusive SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology, the Revolution 235 CP ensures a smooth and easy flying experience. This innovative technology helps prevent crashes by offering angle limits and enhanced self-leveling in Normal mode while providing unlimited freedom in other flight modes. And with Panic Recovery at the push of a button, you can rest assured that you can recover from any situation, giving you the ultimate peace of mind during your flights.
Key Updates and Upgrades Over the Blade 230:
• Enhanced flight controller tuning for superior self-leveling in Normal (SAFE) mode• Refined frame design with optimized servo geometry and a more centered gravity for improved flight performance• Upgraded servos and rotor head geometry for precise handling• Durable aluminum swashplate and rotor head block for long-lasting performance• A larger diameter tail boom for added rigidity and toughness• More powerful and efficient main motor for higher performance• A fresh new color scheme, plus a selection of option parts
The Blade Revolution 235 CP comes 100% factory-assembled, flight-tested, and ready to fly right out of the box. No assembly or setup required. The Ready-to-Fly (RTF) Basic version is perfect for first-time pilots or seasoned flyers who want maximum convenience and value. The RTF version comes with everything you need except for a battery and charger, allowing you to choose a Spektrum Powerstage bundle or your preferred battery and charger separately.
The Spektrum DXS 2.4GHz transmitter included with this model can be used with other Bind-N-Fly (BNF) and BNF Basic aircraft after mastering the Revolution 235. If you already have a Spektrum transmitter, you can opt for the BNF Basic version and use your existing equipment.
What’s More?
Once you’ve mastered the basics, you can take your flying skills to the next level. In Stunt/Idle Up flight modes, the Revolution 235 CP allows you to perform aerobatic maneuvers like loops, rolls, inverted flight, and even 3D aerobatics, whether you're an expert or still learning. Personalize your helicopter with a variety of main rotor blades, tail rotors, canopies, and landing gear. There's also the option for carbon fiber main rotor blades, aluminum blade grips, motor mounts, and updated light kits for flying at night.

Skill Level 1 – No Experience Required
Skill Level 1 aircraft, like this one, are perfect for beginners and first-time RC (Radio Controlled) helicopter pilots because no prior experience is required to fly them!
Ready-To-Fly Basic Flexibility
This Ready-To-Fly (RTF) Basic version includes a Spektrum DXS controller/transmitter equipped with industry-leading DSMX 2.4GHz technology and everything else you need to fly except for a rechargeable lithium polymer (LiPo) battery and charger for the helicopter. The convenient and money-saving Spektrum Powerstage 1 bundle (SPMXPSA100) includes a compatible 3S 850mAh Smart G2 LiPo battery, an IC2 to IC3 adapter, and an S120 Smart charger that can be used with a variety of USB power sources. Or you can choose the separate 3S 850mAh (or similar) battery and compatible charger you prefer!
Exclusive Technologies
The factory-installed and expertly-tuned AR6250MHXD flybarless flight controller features exclusive Spektrum AS3X and SAFE technologies. The updated SAFE technology features angle limits and improved self-leveling to help prevent crashes in Normal mode. AS3X smooths out the effects of wind and turbulence with no limits or self-leveling in all other flight modes so you can fly inverted and perform aerobatics too. Plus, you can use Panic Recovery to “bail out” at the push and hold of a button if you ever need it!
Telemetry Capable
The Revolution 235 is equipped with a Spektrum Smart ESC, flight controller, and a receiver that provides – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – real-time overall flight battery voltage, motor RPM, and other telemetry information to compatible Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DXS, DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6 to 20, the iX12 to 20, and others) while you fly.
Learn to Fly Successfully with SAFE® Technology
If this is your first RC helicopter, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology prevents over-control and crashes while also offering multiple flight modes to deliver more control and capabilities as your skills progress:
Normal (SAFE) Mode
In this flight mode, the helicopter has pitch and bank angle limits to prevent over-control that can result in a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the helicopter automatically returns to level flight on its own allowing you to relax and enjoy just 'steering' the helicopter through the sky rather than focusing on keeping it level. This flight mode also makes it much easier to take off and land!
Stunt/Idle Up 1 (AS3X) Mode
There are no pitch or bank angle limits in this flight mode so you have complete control! The head speed is higher and more constant than in the Normal mode which allows you to fly inverted (upside down) and perform basic aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls and more.
Stunt/Idle Up 2 (AS3X) Mode
In this flight mode there are no limits and the head speed is even higher so you can perform more aggressive and 3D aerobatic maneuvers.
Panic Recovery
If you lose control of the helicopter in the Stunt/Idle Up flight modes, simply press and hold the Panic Recovery button or switch to Normal mode and release the right-hand control stick. SAFE technology will automatically return the helicopter to upright and level flight!
Durable Precision
The upgraded digital, metal-geared cyclic servos along with an updated frame design featuring optimized servo and improved rotor head geometry, an aluminum swashplate and rotor head block deliver added durability, precision, and capabilities.
Collective Pitch
The CP (Collective Pitch) main rotor mechanics offer smooth control to deliver a unique blend of hovering, sport, and aerobatic flying capabilities you can't get with FP (Fixed Pitch) mechanics.
Fully Assembled
The Revolution 235 arrives 100% factory-assembled, flight-tested, and ready to fly right out of the box! It's equipped with industry-leading Spektrum 2.4GHz technology that's already bound to the DXS controller/transmitter included with the RTF Basic version, and both versions bind to most 6+ channel DSMX/DSM2 equipped transmitters.
High Power
The more powerful and efficient brushless main motor plus the tail motor are connected to a factory-installed Spektrum Dual Smart ESC and are compatible with popular and affordable 3S 850mAh Smart and similar non-Smart LiPo batteries with IC2 connectors (or use a compatible IC2 adapter).
Option Parts
You can customize and personalize the Revolution 235 CP with different colors of main rotor blades, tail rotors, canopies, and landing gear. There are also optional carbon fiber main rotor blades, aluminum blade grips, main motor and tail motor mounts, plus updated light kits for flying at night (option parts are sold separately).
Replacement Parts
If you damage any airframe parts or components and can't repair them a full line of replacement/spare parts is readily available.
