Here is the podcast that covers the 200 SR X and the other announcements.

Fast forward to 50 mins to listen to when Steve gets on.

I like the look of the 3 blade tail rotor.

jaybyrd · 02-07-2014, 05:54 PM

Kpod, sorry I meant efficient, not effective, (corrected, above) as in he was giving reasons for and against and the 2 vs 3 rotor props, and the 3 rotor won for them, so thats what they were going with so far. I hope that clears it up, my bad.

But also like I was saying you can feel free to try the regular SR prop once you get one and see for yourself, cover all the bases, maybe some will like the wider 2 rotor prop for visual reference? Although the 3 rotor prop should show up darker if you will, yet smaller diameter.

I think making a new 3 rotor prop is great especially if we can just swap it for a SR 2 rotor prop if we feel like it.

I wonder what other parts are shared with the SR? (I feel a challenge coming!)

No parts from the SR are shared. (as far as I can remember on a Sunday morning.) -edit, Saturday

kpod · 02-08-2014, 09:42 AM

Your memory is not good. It's Saturday morning, not sunday

I was only mentioning the sr due to size of heli with motorized tail.

jaybyrd · 02-08-2014, 10:38 AM

Wow, poor Brian must be very overworked with those new releases coming out! Haha. That really made me laugh.

I figured since they share the SR nomenclature, maybe they share some parts too, guess not.
That 2 rotor tail prop looks very similar to the SR one, down to the mounting and curvature of the rotor tips.

Hay, I think it's almost Sunday in China!?

Brian James · 02-08-2014, 10:44 AM

Good call, it IS only Saturday...lol.

I'm going to get a fleet of srx200's and convert them to crop dusters. (We have like hundreds of farms around here). Or I could at least do some weed control maybe.....I try to stay productive.

Digital Don · 02-17-2014, 08:31 PM

I had a chance to hold the Blade 200 SR X in my hot little hands on Sunday at E-Fest. Looks well made and the size is just about perfect for indoor flying. Can't wait until they're available.

In fact, I asked Brian if I could have the display model so I could be a 'beta tester'. He said "Ah... NO!"

Hey, can't blame a guy for trying!

You'll cry if you lose your heli in the crops. 2 hours I spent looking for my 130X and it was not 100 yards in front of me. Grass was only 6 inches high. Be careful!

resnik44 · 02-18-2014, 01:06 PM

I really hope they come out with some nice scale fuselages for this heli. It would make a nice relaxed flying type scale heli and I bet you could get some pretty good flight times despite the added weight if flown in a gentle scale manner. The Blade SR Huey was a good looking scale heli even though the SR part of the heli wasn't the greatest.

Doom Buggy · 02-18-2014, 09:15 PM

anyone know what batteries this lil guy will have?

charger shopping...

I believe it's 3S 800mAh

Mojappa · 02-18-2014, 09:27 PM

Honestly if they made lightweight fuses they wouldn't have to be terrible strong given how easy this heli should be to fly. A little MD500 would be nifty to have around.
