The Ares Advantage Optim 300 CP is the first RC helicopter in its size and class to assist pilots looking to progress from sport flying to 3D. The Aegis Natural Flight Progression (NFP) technology in the Optim 300 CP combines a state-of-the-art 6-axis sensor system with groundbreaking control software to create a RC heli training tool unlike any other. If you’re new to CP flight, your first step is to fly using the advanced 6-axis Flight Stabilization System (FSS) that allows you to fly basic sport maneuvers. All you have to do if you happen to get into trouble is let go of the sticks and the 300 CP will right itself and assist you in avoiding any potential crashes. When you're ready to test your skills with 3D flight, the flip of a switch puts you in 3-axis agility mode. Pair this with the high-performance capabilities of the 300 CP heli, and you will be able to execute just about any 3D flight maneuver you can imagine. Better yet, if you lose control, flipping the switch back to the 6-axis Flight Stabilization System (FSS) automatically stabilizes the heli and helps you regain control and avoid a crash!
Learning to fly inverted is the first big step to 3D flight and the Optim 300 CP makes taking the step to inverted flight easier than ever. The transmitter features a switch that, when turned on while in 6-axis FSS mode, automatically flips the Optim to stable inverted flight. While in stable inverted flight, you can familiarize yourself with how the heli responds differently to your controls with the assurance of knowing that all you need to do if you lose control is let go of the sticks and the Natural Flight Progression (NFP) technology assists you in going back to a stable inverted hover. And when you want to return to flying right side up again, it’s as easy as another flip of the switch!

Features:
- Go Inverted With The Flip of a Switch: The transmitter features a switch that, when turned on while in 6-axis FSS mode, automatically flips the Optim to stable inverted flight.
- Be Different: If you decide you prefer a different look for your Optim 300, there are 2 optional after-market pre-trimmed and pre-painted canopies available that will make your heli stand out from the crowd.
- Stable Flight - Even When Inverted: While in stable inverted flight, you can familiarize yourself with how the heli responds differently to your controls with the assurance of knowing that all you need to do if you lose control is let go of the sticks and the Natural Flight Progression (NFP) technology assists you in going back to a stable inverted hover.
