Featuring the latest advancements in Spektrum technology, the Blade Fusion 180 Smart helicopter continues the legacy of the Blade Fusion line and is a high-performance 3D machine ready for intermediate heli pilots. The revised Fusion adds a redeveloped carbon fibre main frame that's lightweight and extremely rigid. Additionally, a belt-driven tail and newly developed tail case improves tail performance and overall durability. Hosting this belt is an over-sized tail boom large enough to eliminate the need for boom supports. Optimized servo geometry greatly reduces mechanical loss and improves control efficiency to the swashplate. A painted carbon fibre tail fin finishes the sleek styling of the Fusion 180 Smart redesigned canopy. Featuring the latest in Spektrum technology, the Fusion 180 Smart is equipped with the expertly tuned micro 6250HMX Flight Controller yet remains adjustable for pilots to fine tune to their flying style. Also, a Spektrum Avian 15 Amp ESC offers improved, precise head speed control for that high performance flight that doesn't lag behind. Innovative SAFE technology help pilots progress from simple manoeuvres to advanced 3D stunts with confidence. Plus, with the inclusion of Smart technology, battery charging, and power system management is now easier than ever and virtually worry free. With BNF Basic convenience, pilots simply add a 4S 450mAh battery, bind their 6+ channel Spektrum DSMX transmitter, and take to the skies.

The carbon fibre main frame takes rigidity to another level for a rock-solid flight experience. An oversized tail boom eliminates the need for boom supports and is crowned by an ABS plastic tail case improving vibration damping and performance.

This new flybarless controller features advanced adaptive flight control algorithms, forward programming, 6-axis M.E.M.S. inertial sensor, low-latency high-speed operation, two remote receiver ports for diversity, and a vibration rejecting aluminium lower case.

The Fusion 180 Smart features a belt driving tail improving durability and tail performance.

The Blade Fusion 180 Smart helicopter features exclusive SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology, a revolutionary electronic flight envelope protection system that makes it easy for anyone to fly helicopters with confidence by providing flight mode versatility and Panic Recovery mode that automatically returns the heli to a level attitude.

The Spektrum Avian Smart 15 amp ESC transmits Battery voltage and ESC data straight to your Spektrum Transmitter all over one wire. An Avian electronic speed control provides a one-wire solution for obtaining telemetry data such as current, voltage, temperature and RPM. The Avian ESC 32-bit M4 processor produces higher resolution signal input and more accurate motor output for a locked in and active throttle response.
