Details

Built on nearly two decades of Blade helicopter engineering and development experience, and based on the extremely popular Fusion 480 and stretch kit, the Blade Fusion 550 packs a variety of high-quality and high-performance features into a rugged and reliable helicopter that's ready to rip up the skies. The lightweight yet extremely durable carbon fiber and aluminum airframe design features many factory-finished assemblies so it assembles quickly – in less than half the time of typical kits – plus it's easy to maintain and repair. The Optimized Servo Geometry provides precise and responsive control from hovering to sport flying, and from basic to all-out 3D aerobatics. The quiet helical main gear is driven by the included 4320-1180Kv brushless outrunner motor that delivers incredible torque and performance with popular 6S 4000–5000mAh LiPo batteries. A belt-driven tail assembly featuring carbon fiber and aluminum construction ensures locked-in tail performance on every flight.
