The RTF version includes everything you need to fly plus a copy of the RealFlight® Trainer Edition RC flight simulator, and both versions include a Spektrum™ receiver that features a convenient Smart Transmitter File (STF) compatible with all NX and iX series transmitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlade Revolution 155 CP RTF with SAFE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor nearly a decade, the Blade 150 S helped many pilots learn to fly and advance their collective pitch helicopter skills. The Revolution 155 CP builds on that legacy with meaningful updates that make it more affordable, easier to fly, and more capable than ever. It features exclusive and innovative SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that offers angle limits and improved self-leveling to help prevent crashes in Normal mode, and no limits in all other flight modes – plus Panic Recovery to “bail out” at the push of a button if you ever need it!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUpdates and upgrades compared to the 150 include:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved flight controller tuning for better self-leveling performance when switching back to Normal (SAFE) mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated composite frame design with optimized servo geometry and upgraded servos for improved flight performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore powerful and lighter tail motor plus new tail prop for improved tail performance and yaw control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew color scheme plus optional canopies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Revolution 155 CP arrives 100% factory-assembled and flight-tested, so it's ready to fly right out of the box. The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version includes everything needed to fly in one box so it's a perfect choice for first-time to experienced pilots looking for maximum convenience and value. Plus, the included Spektrum DXS 2.4GHz transmitter can be used with other Bind-N-Fly® (BNF) and BNF Basic aircraft after you learn to fly the Revolution 155 successfully! A Bind-N-Fly (BNF) Basic version is also available for pilots who want to use their current Spektrum transmitter along with batteries and chargers they may already own. And both versions include a Spektrum flybarless flight controller and receiver loaded with a Smart Transmitter File that allows you to import all settings for NX and iX series transmitters automatically during the binding process to make it easier and faster to get flying with your favorite or upgraded transmitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RTF version also includes a “full” copy of the RealFlight Trainer Edition RC flight simulator that runs on a wide variety of PCs (Personal Computers) from low-cost laptops to “gaming” desktops running Windows® 10 or 11. This simulator features many of the most popular Horizon Hobby trainer airplanes and helicopters, including the Revolution 155, along with built-in Virtual Flight Instructor lessons. It also includes additional features including nearly two dozen “Next Step After a Trainer” (Skill Level 2) aircraft and variants plus 4 flying sites\/fields that are unlockable reward content after you fly the trainer models for just 2–4 hours. Other added features include a fresh and modern user interface that's even easier and more intuitive to use, multiplayer options so you can train and fly with others online, the option to turn on wind, unlock float flying, and more! This helps new pilots learn to fly successfully by practicing on a desktop PC at home or on a laptop just about anywhere else. Simply use a USB-C cable to connect the updated and upgraded DXS controller\/transmitter to a compatible USB port on your computer to fly!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the fun doesn't stop after you learn how to fly! In the Stunt\/Idle Up flight modes the Revolution 155 CP is capable of performing basic aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls, inverted (upside down) flight, and more. It's even capable of all-out 3D aerobatics whether you're an experienced pilot or are just learning to perform them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicro-sized to fly indoors in large rooms and garages, and outdoors in yards, parks, sports fields, and beyond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipped with improved SAFE technology that helps prevent crashes and makes it easy to learn how to fly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNormal (SAFE) plus Stunt 1 and 2 (AS3X) flight modes you can easily change between at the flip of a switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanic Recovery mode at the push and hold of a button to prevent loss of control and crashes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes everything needed to fly – there's nothing extra to buy or provide so it's an excellent value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpektrum DXS controller\/transmitter with industry-leading DSMX 2.4GHz technology for reliable control without interference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReceiver loaded with a Smart Transmitter File that allows you to import all settings for NX and iX series transmitters during the binding process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with affordable 3S 450mAh LiPo batteries with reliable IC2 connectors (or use a compatible IC2 adapter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpektrum Dual Smart ESC provides real-time battery voltage, motor RPM, and other data to compatible transmitters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-installed Spektrum AR6250MHXG flybarless flight controller featuring exclusive AS3X and updated SAFE technologies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved flight controller tuning for better self-leveling performance when switching back to Normal (SAFE) mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-installed digital, metal-geared cyclic servos with precise ball-link equipped linkages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated composite frame design with optimized servo geometry and upgraded servos for improved flight performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore powerful and lighter tail motor plus new tail prop for improved tail performance and yaw control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractice flying this aircraft in the RealFlight RC flight simulator (included with the RTF version and sold separately for the BNF Basic version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustomize and personalize with different colors of canopies including one option to match the Revolution 235\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo FAA registration or Remote ID required (under the 250-gram weight limit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull line of replacement\/spare parts available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSkill Level 1 – No Experience Required\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkill Level 1 aircraft, like this one, are perfect for beginners and first-time \u003cbr\u003eRC (Radio Controlled) helicopter pilots because no prior experience is required to fly them!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReady-To-Fly Basic Convenience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version includes a Spektrum DXS controller\/transmitter equipped with industry-leading DSMX 2.4GHz technology and everything else you need to fly including AA batteries for the transmitter, a rechargeable lithium polymer battery for the helicopter, and a USB charger.
