Pilots looking for something bigger than "palm-sized" — but at a lower cost than 350-size machines — now have the perfect option. Like larger models, the ready-to-fly 230Si quad offers more stability, easier visibility, and is better able to handle outdoor flying conditions. With sophisticated intelligent technology also built-in, the 230Si gives first-time fliers outstanding odds for success. It's a satisfying choice for seasoned pilots, too, and is available with or without an onboard HD camera for taking in-flight videos and still photos.
Altitude Control Management™
Offers three modes — auto hover; maximum 10 ft. (3 m) altitude; or manual control. In auto hover, press a button and the 230Si holds your selected altitude.
Actual Direction Control™
Turn it on and the 230Si goes in the same direction that you move the sticks — whether it's flying toward you or away from you.
Return to Pilot™
Brings the 230Si back to its pilot automatically. Simply push a transmitter button. Built-in sensors call the model "home."
Maximum stability from 3 gyros and 3 accelerometers
TAGS-FX continuously keeps you in complete control. Sensor Fusion Technology integrates data received from dual sources — a 3-axis gyro and a 3-axis accelerometer — and compensates immediately for any actions except those you command. TAGS-FX corrects unwanted movement in yaw, pitch and roll while also preventing drift in any direction. You're more in control than ever before!

Beginner and Expert Flight Modes
Select Beginner or Expert flight modes from the transmitter. In Beginner mode, releasing the sticks lets the 230Si stabilize itself in flight — perfect when you're unsure of how to react. Expert mode turns off the TAGS-FX accelerometers, allowing greater maneuverability. Choose the mode that's right for you. New pilots enjoy unprecedented confidence—experts gain the precision to execute perfect maneuvers.
Fail-Safe
If the radio signal is lost while flying, the 230Si enters into fail-safe mode. The model holds the altitude it has at the time of signal loss and hovers for about one minute. Then it will slowly descend.
Not only is the 230Si easier to control than smaller quads, but its larger size is more stable in flight. The onboard camera holds steady for taking the best photos and videos.
All of the 230Si's intelligent technology — including Return to Pilot, Altitude Control Management, and TAGS-FX beginner/expert flight modes — is conveniently controlled right from its specially designed transmitter. The video and photo functions of camera-equipped versions are also remotely controlled.
Both 230Si RTFs come with a large capacity, 1200mAh 1S LiPo battery and variable rate balancing AC LiPo charger. Fully charged, the battery provides flight times lasting up to 15 minutes.
