Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this green canopy fit my Blade 230 S helicopter? — Yes, this is a genuine Blade component (model Z-BLH1573) engineered specifically for the Blade 230 S airframe. It will integrate perfectly with your helicopter. However, if you own a different variant such as the Blade 230 S V2 or Blade 230 S Smart, we recommend confirming compatibility with our expert team before ordering, as these variants may have slightly different specifications. You can check your helicopter's manual for the correct part number or contact our knowledgeable RC specialists at RC Model Shop for friendly, expert advice.
- What colour options are available for the Blade 230 S canopy? — RC Model Shop stocks this genuine Blade canopy in green (Z-BLH1573).

Different colour schemes help with visibility during flight and allow you to personalise your aircraft.
- Do I need additional parts to install this canopy? — The canopy attaches to your Blade 230 S using the canopy mounting post.

- Why should I buy genuine Blade parts rather than aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Blade components are engineered to exact factory specifications, ensuring perfect fitment, optimal performance, and compatibility with all other systems on your helicopter.

If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.

Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
