RC Helicopters

The Bladerunner is an easy to fly coaxial RC helicopter. Because of it’s small size and light weight the Bladerunner is designed to fly indoors only. The Bladerunner is a great gift idea for beginner RC helicopter enthusiasts. As with any RC flying toy crashes will happen and parts will break. But unlike many inexpensive RC helicopters the Bladerunner can be repaired fairly easily and spare parts are readily available at Draganfly Innovations Inc. We hope this Bladerunner FAQ will help answer most of the common Bladerunner questions we have answered over the past few years. The Bladerunner instruction manual is free to download. Please feel free to contact us if you require further assistance.

Replacing the Bladerunner Rotor Blades

Purchase replacement rotor blades for your Bladerunner.

Or call: 1-800-979-9794
(Outside of North America: (306) 955-9907)

The Bladerunner rotors are held in place by a friction-fitted short, plastic “tube” located at the very top of the drive shaft. If you need to replace the rotors, remove this plastic fitting - the rotors will then simply slide off. Please note that the body of the helicopter is delicate. Use care when handling it. Be especially careful when removing or re-installing the aforementioned plastic fitting.

Note that there are plastic spacers whose purpose is to keep the rotors separated. Also note that the upper rotor is ‘keyed’ to the D-shaped drive shaft. When replacing the upper rotor, you must ensure that you orient it properly so that the D-shape of the rotor’s central opening slides onto the D-shaped drive shaft in the correct orientation. This should not require much force to do when the parts are correctly oriented. The lower rotor is also keyed to the drive shaft but instead of a D-shaped opening it uses a castellated nut whose ridges interlock with those of the drive shaft.

Repairing the Bladerunner rotor blades

If a Bladerunner rotor blade breaks or cracks it is usually possible to repair it with a piece of transparent tape. Cut a ¼” by 1″ (6 x 25mm) piece of tape. Gently hold the blade in place while you apply the tape to the blade. Wrap the tape around the leading (front) edge of the blade and make sure that it covers both the top and bottom surfaces of the blade in the damaged area. It is important that you keep the blade straight when you apply the tape. Also, please note that if you use too much tape you may need to put some on the opposite blade as well, in order to keep the blades in balance. Another tip that you may want to try is to put some tape around the leading edges of the blades, especially at the tip, as a protection in case the rotors should come in contact with something during flight or in a crash.

The rotors are tilted and not level

When the Bladerunner rotors are not spinning it is quite normal for the rotors to rest in a tilted position. This is normal even if they are properly balanced. In stationary flight (hover) the rotors will level out. However, if you start to fly forward the lower rotor will usually tilt sideways. This is due to aerodynamic and gyroscopic forces and is necessary to maintain stability.

“UnSquishing” the BladeRunner’s body shell

If you ’squish’ or dent the body/canopy of the BladeRunner, you can easily pull it back into shape. Simply attach a piece of adhesive tape to the area where the body is impacted and then use that to pull it back into shape.

Straightening flattened landing gear

If the Bladerunner landing gear bends after too many hard landings. CAREFULLY bend the gear back to a suitable shape. Try not to bend the gear too much at the upper, pre-bent angle since that is where the gear is most likely to fail. Better to put a gradual bend into the entire length of the “legs”.

If the BladeRunner keeps turning in one direction

Obviously you should first try to trim it with the trim tab located on the transmitter. If this doesn’t fully correct the problem you can try to increase the pitch angle of the blades on one of the rotors (see below) by GENTLY bending the trailing edges of the blades as follows:

If the heli turns to the left
bend down the rear (trailing edges) of the upper rotor blades

If the heli turns to the right
bend down the rear (trailing edges) of the lower rotor blades

Please do not expect the BladeRunner to remain in perfect trim. The temperature of the motors and shafts etc varies during flight so the trim tends to drift a bit.

Even after you adjust the trim, you may still need to compensate left or right to keep the helicopter steady.

Note for advanced pilots:
It is in fact better to adjust the rotor blades rather than move the transmitter-based trim lever because you will get a few extra seconds of flight time and better performance. At full throttle the overall output from the motors is actually reduced when you apply trim or rudder stick. This is because the motors are already at 100% and to turn, the only thing the software can do is to reduce the speed of one of the motors. The other motor is at 100% and can not increase; therefore the combined output is lowered. If you need full trim in one direction, this means that one of your motors will never get up to 100%.

BladeRunner tipping over during takeoff

Launch the BladeRunner from flat, smooth surfaces - only. When taking off, briskly move the throttle stick forward to get the BladeRunner airborne quickly, then, reduce throttle a bit to prevent it from shooting skywards. Do NOT let the helicopter sit on the ground with the rotors spinning at partial power - this will almost certainly cause the helicopter to tip over due to uncompensated torque effects and gyroscopic precession.

If for some reason the helicopter tips over or crashes it is important to stop the rotors immediately by pulling the throttle stick to DOWN (to the ‘off’ position). Stopping the rotors while the throttle stick is not in the ‘off’ position could damage the motor brushes or the battery fuse.

How much space do I need to fly my Bladerunner?

At least a mid-sized living room, clear of any obstructions is needed. Be sure to keep the BladeRunner away from walls, ceiling and other fixtures. The Bladerunner creates its own turbulence and because it is very sensitive to wind and turbulence (any kind of moving air) it is difficult to control when it is too close to the floor or near static objects. In fact it will seem to get “sucked” towards walls and ceilings. If this happens, reduce power immediately to prevent damage to the rotor system. Do NOT try to “power” out of the suction effect.

What about ceiling fans and air-conditioners?
The Bladerunner is very sensitive to wind and turbulence (any kind of moving air) and it can easily become unstable if you are attempting to fly it in a room with ceiling fans or air-conditioner systems which create turbulence. Because of this sensitivity to any kind of moving air, the Bladerunner can not be operated outdoors.

The Bladerunner’s tail rotor is tilted (or angled)

This is quite normal and does not influence on the stability of the helicopter. You should not try to change the angle of the motor. If the small yellow propeller itself is deformed and not spinning properly you could try to gently bend the propeller to be perpendicular to the motor shaft. Replacement Bladerunner tail propellers can be purchased at our Web site.

The Bladerunner tail rotor is not spinning when I operate the right hand stick (FWD/REV)

With the helicopter on the ground, initialize the transmitter by moving the throttle stick up a bit and then down again. Now test the Bladerunner tail motor by pushing the right stick up or down. If the tail motor does not start, try to turn it by hand while you hold full forward on the right stick. If the motor starts, run it at full speed for one minute and then reverse it by pulling the right stick to full reverse. Run the tail motor for another minute. Stop it and test again. If it still does not start by itself, repeat the procedure. If you are not able to start the tail motor it is still possible to fly your Bladerunner helicopter with almost full control and have a lot of fun.

How long will the Bladerunner fly?

This very much depends on the condition of your Bladerunner internal lipo battery. Normal flight times are 2-3 minutes and up. If you are able to fly for more than 4 minutes you should land and let the motors cool down for a few minutes before you take to the air again. If you are looking to increase the flight time of your Bladerunner and are comfortable soldering why not purchase one of our Upgraded BladeRunner High Performance Li Poly Batteries that offer almost twice the flight time.

The charging takes much longer than 20 minutes.

The weight of the Bladerunner can vary a little and this will influence your flight times. If you are able to fly for about 4-5 minutes, a full charge will take 20-30 minutes. However, if you are able to fly for more than one flight, resulting in longer total flight times - the charging time will also increase, up to 45-60 minutes.

What are the Bladerunner Warranty details?

The BladeRunner has a 30 day warranty. The warranty applies to manufacturing defects only. Broken parts due to use are not covered. If your BladeRunner does have a manufacturing defect, make sure that you include your receipt
when you return it for a replacement. Otherwise, the warranty does not apply. All returned products will be tested and inspected to verify the manufacturing defect. In the event that a defect is not found, all costs incurred on the shipping of the product will become the responsibility of the sender. Please see our RMA returns policy for further information.

Getting Started With Your New Mini 9g Helicopter

1. Remove the mini Heli from its packaging
2. Install 6 new alkaline batteries in the transmitter
3. Slide the door on the front of the transmitter open and unroll the charge cable
4. Connect the charge cable to the port on the side of the helicopter, with the helicopter turned off and the transmitter turned on



5. The Green light with be on while charging, and go out when the charge is completed (The Red light may go out after about 10 minutes, but do not disconnect the helicopter until the Green light goes out)

Flying the Mini Heli

1. Turn on the transmitter and the helicopter
2. Place the helicopter on the ground, or a flat surface
3. Push on the throttle stick until the helicopter lifts into the air
4. Once in the air, hover by increasing or decreasing the amount of throttle by small increments



5. Trim the helicopter by pressing the buttons labeled “ST.TRIM”
6. If the helicopter spins to the right, press the button labeled “L”, and if it spins to the left, press the button labeled “R”
7. When adjusting the trim, press and release the buttons quickly, do not hold them down
8. If the helicopter spins rapidly, you may need to press the button ten or more times
9. If the spinning increases, try pressing the other button
10. Once the helicopter is hovering and trimmed, now it is time to enjoy flying it - use the throttle to move up and down, and the directional control to move left and right

Tweaking your Mini Heli

• For faster forward flight, add tiny amounts of weight to the nose of the helicopter

Mini Heli Troubleshooting Tips

• Mini Heli spins rapidly
  • First try trimming it as described above
  • If this does not work, check the tail rotor for damage, and replace if cracked
  • Check for hair or lint wrapped around the tail motor shaft, and remove carefully
  • When removing or replacing the tail rotor, ensure the tapered end is toward the motor, and the flares on the blades face outward
• Mini Heli shakes strongly
  • Check the weights on the underside of main rotor stabilizer
  • If the weight are loose, or have fallen out, fix them in place with some CA glue, using the same amount on either side to maintain balance
• Mini Heli lacks power
  • Ensure the helicopter has been fully charged, if the transmitter batteries are not fresh, replace them and then charge the Mini Heli
  • If this does not work, try cycling the battery by discharging the helicopter by letting it run until the main rotor slows down, and then giving it a full charge
• Mini Heli does not respond to controller
  • Replace the transmitter batteries with fresh alkalines and charge the helicopter
  • With the helicopter and transmitter on, try throttling up with the channel selection switch set to A, then B, then C
• Mini Heli is out of trim each time it is turned on
  • This is normal, to make it easier you can count the number of times you have to press the trim adjustment. The next time you turn it on, simply press the trim button the same number of times
• Mini Heli is hard to control right after being charged
  • When the helicopter is freshly charged it will have more power, this will smooth out as you use it, and should return to optimum power levels after the first minute of flight
  • To limit the initial power, try unplugging the helicopter a minute or two before the charge would normally finish
• The tail of the Mini Heli is not straight
  • The tail should normally hold the tail motor lying flat
  • If the tail has become mis-aligned after a crash, it can be gently straightened by hand

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.

Manufactured by Interactive Toy Concepts Ltd. and part of the Bladerunner Series of RC helicopters, the Firefly and Micro Mosquito are two of the most popular mini indoor RC helicopters on the market today. We hope this FAQ and troubleshooting guide will help you diagnose any problems you may encounter with your favorite little RC heli. If you require spare parts we sell a complete selection of spare parts for both the Micro Mosquito and Firefly on our Web site or you can order by phone by calling 1-800-979-9794 / 306-955-9907.

How much space do I need to fly my Firefly or Micro Mosquito?

At least a mid size living room, clear of any obstructions is needed. Be sure to keep the Firefly or Micro Mosquito away from walls, ceiling and other fixtures. Because of the aerodynamics of the rotors the Firefly or Micro Mosquito will seem to get sucked towards any obstacle/wall if it gets too close.

What about fans, air conditioners, vents and windows?

The Firefly or Micro Mosquito is very light weight and hence sensitive to wind, any air movement from heating vents, fans, windows, etc will make it more difficult to control.

Can I fly outdoors?

The Firefly and Micro Mosquito are indoor helicopters. The same innovations that make it super stable also makes it easily effected by wind and turbulence. Even the calmest out door day has wind that will effect the Firefly or Micro Mosquito’s performance.

The Rotors are tilted an not level, is this okay?

When the rotors are not spinning it is normal for the rotors to rest in a tilted position. This is normal even if they are properly balanced. In hover the rotors will level out; however, in moving flight the lower rotor will usual tilt sideways due to aerodynamic and gyroscopic forces and is necessary to maintain stability.

Repairing the rotor blades.

Repairing the rotor blades is possible. Buy Firefly or Micro Mosquito Rotor Blades.

If the ring broken	Replace with new rotor - spare parts kit available separately
If the blades are broken or cracked	Use clear tape to fix. Hold the broken or cracked blades in the correct position and using as little tape as possible, secure the rotor together. Trim or fold over any extra tape. If too much tape is used it will throw out the balance and hinder your stable flight
If the centre (head) is broken	Replace with new rotor - spare part kit available separately
Bent or deformed center (head)	Use some force to permanently bend it back again NOTE: Be careful to not destroy the hinges, the rotor must be able to tilt absolutely freely (when you tap on it, it should tilt up and down for at least 2 seconds before it comes to rest again - if this is not the case the helicopter will be unstable and start to oscillate)

Replacing the rotor blades

Rotor Replacement kits are available for the Firefly or Micro Mosquito and have detailed instruction to replace the rotors.

The top rotor will not side on the rotor shaft.

The upper rotor has been keyed to match the D shape of the drive shaft. When replacing the upper rotor you must ensure to orient it properly so that the D shape of the rotor’s central opening matches the D shaped drive shaft.

The Firefly or Micro Mosquito tips over during take off.

Launch the Firefly or Micro Mosquito from hard flat surfaces only. When taking off briskly move the throttle stick forward to get the Firefly or Micro Mosquito airborne quickly. Letting the helicopter sit on the ground with the rotors spinning will almost always result in the helicopter tipping over.

How long will the Firefly or Micro Mosquito Fly?

This is very dependent on the condition of the battery and how you are flying the Firefly or Micro Mosquito. Typical flight times are between 8 and 10 minutes. Should you be able to fly over 10 minutes you should land and let your motors cool down to ensure you do not burn them out, this will ensure many more fun flights.

How long does it take to charge the Firefly or Micro Mosquito?

This depends on the condition of the charger batteries (the six C sized alkaline cells) and the condition of the helicopter battery. After a long flight of 10 minutes or more it can take 30 to 45 minutes to fully recharge the battery. If the charge batteries are old, performed multiple charges, or been used in other product then the charge time can be longer. If the charge time becomes excessive or you are having short flights from a charge replace your charger’s batteries with new alkaline batteries. You can purchase an AC adapter so you don’t need the 6 C batteries in the charger/base station. This will ensure you always get a full charge.

What if I disconnect the Firefly or Micro Mosquito before the charge is complete?

Stopping a charge cycle before it is finished will not effect the helicopter battery or the charger, it is just like not completely filling a car’s gas tank. Just like the car will not drive a far before running out of gas if the tank is not full, the Firefly or Micro Mosquito will not fly as long if the charge is stopped early.

Why does my controller (transmitter) light flash when I turn the ON/OFF switch to ON?

The helicopter is programmed with a safety feature that helps prevent damage to the helicopter. When the controller is turned on the helicopter will not respond to it until the helicopter control is initialized. To do this you must cycle the throttle from 0% to 100% to 0%, at which point the LED will stop flashing and be steady. The flashing is to remind you that the speed control is not initialized.

Firefly or Micro Mosquito has a lost or broken leg

Buy a replacement body or use clear tape or Crazy glue to reattach the broken leg (under adult supervision). If the leg is lost then try to use a piece of the plastic tube from a Q-tip to replace the broken part of the leg (plus a little glue). If you lost the leg use a piece of the plastic tube from a Q-tip to replace the broken part of the leg and glue in place.

Micro Mosquito has a broken tail rotor

Buy a new Micro Mosquito tail rotor. Simply pull off the broken propeller and press on the new one.

Micro Mosquito tail motor quit working

Buy a replacement body or remove the propeller and add a little weight to the front e.g. a metal paper clip attached to the motors (hold by the motor magnet) to get a slow constant forward speed.

Loose / Broken Firefly or Micro Mosquito tail boom

Buy a replacement body. The tail boom will normally not break under normal operations, it requires excessive force or misuse to break the tail boom. If the tail boom has a loose connection with the body glue the boom to the body without pulling it out first. NOTE: be careful as there are two very thin wires for the tail motor going inside the boom, the thin wires can be damaged.

Firefly or Micro Mosquito motor gears / pinions not meshing

The upper motor pinion should mesh with the upper large gear, and the lower motor pinion should mesh with the lower large gear. If either of these does not, carefully guide the large gear over the lip on the small gear, until the gears mesh properly. If your gears are broken purchase our rotor shaft and drive gears combo. If you lost your motor pinions purchase new ones.

Many people have asked us how to replace the Bladerunner internal flight battery on their Bladerunner RC Helicopters. Over time the Bladerunner lipo battery will lose it’s ability to fully recharge and will need to be replaced. We sell OEM factory replacement lipoly batteries for your Bladerunner RC helicopter as well as and after market upgraded version that gives you almost twice the flight time.

Once you are sure the Bladerunner’s battery needs to be replaced it is a fairly simple process. You will need a soldering iron, some solder and a few pieces of tape. This is the best way to install a new battery for a Bladerunner I and a Bladerunner II RC Helicopters:

1. To install a new battery you will need to remove the body from the helicopter to access the internal components.
2. The Bladerunner will have either a foam or plastic body which will have to be cut to remove it.
   • The foam body will have a vertical seam which can be cut open with either a hobby or utility knife.
   • The plastic body can be cut open either at the horizontal seam at the bottom or by cutting it vertically front to back.
3. Once the body is removed you will find the battery near the front of the helicopter it is flat and silver, approximately 2″x 1.5″ in size.
4. There will be two wires connecting the battery to the main circuit board, these will need to be un-soldered from the battery.
5. With these wires removed the battery can be taken out of the helicopter, it is held in with a few pieces of clear tape that can be cut or peeled off.
6. The replacement battery can be held in with any kind of tape.
7. When soldering the new battery the power wires please ensure that the red wire is connected to the battery terminal labeled with the “+” and the black wire is to the terminal labeled with a “-”. Connecting this backwards will cause damage to the battery and circuit board. Be careful to not short out the two battery terminals as it will damage the battery and may cause fire.
8. You will notice that the original battery also had a small circuit board connected to it, this is to prevent an overdischarge on the battery. It is not necessary on the new battery however it can be soldered and applied to the new replacement battery to help prevent damage.
9. Once the battery is in place the body can be re-installed using scotch tape or glue.

Installation of the Bladerunner series replacement rotor blades onto the Bladerunner, Micro Mosquito, and Firefly indoor rc helicopters is quite easy. Follow these steps:

1. Remove the semi transparent stopper from the top of the rotor shaft.
2. The top rotor, the 2 spacers, and the bottom rotor should pull off the rotor shaft from the top.
3. Install your new bottom rotor. It will be the rotor with the longer stem at the bottom with the notch in it. It will mesh with the gear that sticks out.
4. Slide on your spacers.
5. Slide on your top rotor. There is a notch in the rotor, so make sure it lines up with the rotor shaft.
6. Put on the stopper tube, and you are ready to fly!

Hint, Keep all small items in a small bowl or jar so you can find them again and they don’t get lost.
