The BladeRunner coaxial indoor electric RC helicopter is a very advanced toy helicopter manufactured by Interactive Toy Concepts Ltd. The Bladerunner utilizes 2 high quality motors, light weight electronics with 3 channel proportional control, rudder-throttle mixing - 2 electronic speed controllers for the main motors and a bi-directional rotor for the tail.

The BladeRunner’s transmitter has an internal lithium-polymer battery charger with a built-in cable and connector, which is used to recharge the helicopter. The transmitter uses household AC current to power the built-in charger circuit via a DC adapter, and a 9V alkaline battery to power the transmitter circuit.

The controls are similar to high-end model helicopters so the Bladerunner is great for learning to operate those horrendously expensive models without making a huge dollar commitment. The BladeRunner is built to withstand minor crashes such as bumping into walls and furniture. The Bladerunner tail rotor is intentionally very small in order to keep the forward / backward speed low - thus making the helicopter easy to fly and to give you lots of time to react. The ring around the small tail propeller is a safety feature, but it also slows down the speed of the tail propeller to keep the forward / backward speed low. For instructions on how to use the controls, charge the flight battery and fly the Bladerunner please refer to the Bladerunner Instruction Manual.

Many different versions of the Bladerunner have came out over the years. The concept of a small, easy to fly, indoor, electric rc helicopter with coaxial rotor blades remains the building block of all Bladerunner Series RC helicopters. Some Bladerunner varients include the Bladerunner I, the Bladerunner II, the Bladerunner Mini Search & Rescue, the Bladerunner SpiderMan, the Micro Mosquito and the FireFly.

Draganfly Innovations Inc. sells a complete line of Bladerunner replacement parts and rotor blades, Bladerunner Mini parts and rotor blades as well as Firefly & Micro Mosquito parts & rotor blades.
