The Blade® 130 X is a sub-micro, 3D stunner that eagerly performs piro flips, tic tocs, hurricanes, funnels and more with the energy and precision of a machine several times its size. At the center of this incredible performance is the AS3X® (Artificial Stabilization – 3aXis) Flybarless System. This system uses a 3-axis MEMS sensor and exclusive flight control software to deliver the kind of responsiveness and neutral stability that makes you feel like you’re flying a much bigger heli. This, along with a powerful brushless motor and shaft-driven tail, lets you push the limits, indoors or out, with absolute control.

HeHe, but 3D flyers don't buy 'eflite Blades' and those that do can't and in allot of cases don't want to fly 3D All this new and improved hardware would be LOST on em! ... and before the 'fanboys' beat on me, read my SIG EYE See!

The 130 is very cool for sure, but it's a pile of money! I think the stability would be most attractive to a newbie and I don't know many of them that are ready to spend $280 to hover. I personally think this one is going to die on the vine if they don't drop the price $100 real soon. There is nothing in it that even begins to warrant the high price. ...Tiger
