Blade Eclipse 360 AS3S SAFE BNF Basic

Skill 2 - Requires some experience

Although the Blade Eclipse 360 is equipped with optional SAFE technology, it is not suitable as a first RC helicopter for new pilots or a "next step after simulator" model. Before attempting to fly the Eclipse 360, you should have the experience and skills necessary to successfully fly a gyroscopic helicopter such as the Blade 230, 330, Fusion 360, or other models of a similar class.

Advantage of the Bind-N-Fly version set

Already own a Spektrum transmitter Bind-N-Fly (BNF) models make it easier than ever to prepare for flight, quickly and with the best possible control experience. The model is fully assembled with the power system, servos and Spektrum 2.4 GHz receiver installed, so all that needs to be done is to pair the receiver with a compatible Spektrum transmitter.

Exclusive SAFE technology, AS3X

The FC6250HX controller features exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® technologies. Optional SAFE technology offers lean angle limitation and automatic stabilization to help prevent accidents in Normal mode. The AS3X features a 3-axis gyroscope that cancels out the effects of wind and turbulence and helps in other flight modes, so you can fly on your back as well as perform aerobatics. Additionally, you can use Panic Recovery by simply pressing the rescue button.

Telemetry option

The Eclipse 360 is equipped with a Spektrum Smart controller, control unit and receiver that provides - with both SMART and regular batteries - real-time total flight battery voltage, engine speed and other telemetry information to compatible Spektrum AirWare-equipped transmitters (including DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2 /G3 and 8 G2, DX9, NX6 up to 20, iX12 up to 20 and others), during flight.

Precise steering

The cycler's digital servos with metal gears, aluminum rotor head block and carbon fiber main rotor blades provide excellent durability and precise control.

Cycle board

The collective control mechanism of the main rotor offers smooth and precise control and provides a unique combination of hovering, mock-up and sport and aerobatic flying capabilities.

High performance

The powerful AC motors of the main rotor and tail rotor are driven to the installed Spektrum Dual Smart AC controller, which is compatible with the common and popular 3S 2200-3200mAh LiPol batteries.

Unique fairing of the model

The lightweight yet durable body of the helicopter model is made of Elapor and painted to impress with a unique futuristic look. In addition, it is equipped with LED navigation and landing lights for better visibility.

Choice of chassis

The low-profile installed skids offer an aerodynamic "undercarriage" look and work great for takeoffs and landings on smooth surfaces. Or you can install the included set of wheels for a different look and experience on smooth, concrete, asphalt and other surfaces.

Fully assembled

The Blade Eclipse 360 RC Helicopter Model is fully assembled and almost ready to fly, right out of the box! It features top-of-the-line Spektrum™ 2.4GHz technology that pairs with your 6+ channel transmitter equipped with DSMX®/DSM2® modulation, so you can be flying very soon out of the box.

LED lighting

The light but durable body is equipped with LED colored navigation and landing lights on both the right and left undercarriage legs and on the rudder.

Tail rotor

The novelty is the arrangement of the tail rotor in the axis of the fuselage, which is hidden inside the ring. This increases the efficiency of the rotor and, in addition, the rotor blades are not exposed to the risk of damage.

Recommended Spektrum RC kits

For pairing models in BNF versions, we recommend modern programmable RC kits SPEKTRUM:

• 
  
• DX Spektrum DX6e DSMX 6-Channel Economical RC Kit, Receiver AR620 Transmitter with Telemetry, 250 Models in Memory .
  
• NX Spektrum NX6 DSMX Series 6-Channel RC Kit, AR6610T Receiver with Latest Trends, Smart Technology Compatibility, USB Port and WiFi Connectivity .
  
• NX Spektrum NX8 DSMX series 8-channel RC kit, AR8020T receiver with Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connection option.
  

Recommended batteries

We recommend a 3-cell (11.1 V) LiPol drive battery to power the model.

• 
  
• Continuous flight LiPo battery Spektrum Smart LiPo 11.1V 2200mAh 30C IC3 with Smart technology
  
• Higher Quality 100C Spektrum Smart LiPo 11.1V 2200mAh 100C IC3 with Smart Technology
  
• New generation battery G2 Spektrum Smart G2 LiPo 11.1V 2200mAh 50C IC3 with Smart G2 technology
  

Spektrum batteries with Smart technology currently represent the most modern and safest way to maintain and charge batteries. The benefits of Spektrum Smart technology can be found here.

Recommended chargers for conventional LiPol and Smart batteries

If you decide to use modern Smart LiPo batteries in RC models of airplanes or helicopters, or to charge your batteries from other manufacturers, then we recommend the following chargers:

• 
  
• Network charger Spektrum S155 with one output 1x 55W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S1100 with one output 1x 100W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S2100 with one output 2x 100W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S2200 with two outputs 2x 200W .
  

Blade maintenance accessories

For the normal operation of flying RC helicopter models, you need a suitable set of tools and a LiPol battery storage case. From our assortment, we recommend a quality set of 1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0mm allen screwdrivers and Modelcraft Phillips screwdrivers (set of 6). Modelcraft mini pliers in a case (set) will surely come in handy for assembly.

Quick fix adhesives

For quick repair of z helicopter models, we recommend fast curing second adhesives. From our offer, we recommend Robitronic instant glue medium 20ml or Roket Cyano Gel gel instant glue 20ml.

Preparations for securing screws

To secure the screws against loosening, we recommend Robitronic screw glue blue 10ml.

Gear lubrication preparations

For gentle gear lubrication, we recommend the Modelcraft precision oiler with Teflon oil 7.5ml.

Protection of electronics

NANOPROTECH ELECTRIC 150ml can be recommended for gentle gear lubrication.

Protective covers for accumulators

Protective packaging is intended to limit the risk associated with the transport and charging of accumulators. LiPo accumulators, while maintaining small dimensions and low weight, can provide high discharge currents and have a large capacity. The LiPo battery is particularly susceptible to mechanical damage and therefore needs to be thoroughly protected.
