Key Features
- Black Night Blades (Pair) — The kit includes two black night-ready rotor blades that are specifically designed for enhanced visibility during low-light flying operations. Black blades provide excellent contrast against night skies and are essential for maintaining visual orientation during darkness, ensuring safer and more controlled flight sessions compared to using standard daytime blades.
- LED Strip Lighting System — Integrated LED strip lights provide brilliant illumination that makes your RC helicopter clearly visible during night flying. LED technology offers energy-efficient operation with long lifespan, and the strips are designed to mount seamlessly on the Revolution 235 CP airframe for optimal light distribution and visibility from all angles.
- Complete Wiring Harness — A professional-grade wiring harness is included to ensure reliable electrical connections between all components. This pre-assembled harness eliminates the guesswork from installation, making it accessible for RC enthusiasts of all skill levels whilst maintaining the safety and integrity of your helicopter's electrical system.
- Purpose-Designed for Revolution 235 CP — Every component in this night kit has been selected and tested for compatibility with the Blade Revolution 235 CP model. This ensures perfect fitment, reliable operation, and the ability to fully utilise all features without requiring any modifications or additional components beyond what's included in the box.
- Convenient All-in-One Package — Rather than sourcing night-flight components individually from multiple suppliers, this kit brings everything together in one organised package. This convenience saves time, ensures component compatibility, and represents better value than purchasing equivalent items separately from RC retailers.
Technical Performance
The Blade BLH-1791 Night Kit represents a carefully engineered solution for night-time RC helicopter operations. This electronics package is classified as an optional upgrade component rather than a complete flight-ready system, meaning it's designed to enhance an existing Blade Revolution 235 CP that you already own or plan to purchase separately. The kit focuses specifically on night-flight requirements, with the two black night blades providing superior visibility through high-contrast design that cuts through darkness far more effectively than standard blades. The LED strip lighting system utilises modern, energy-efficient LED technology to deliver bright, reliable illumination throughout your night flights, with the strips engineered to function reliably in outdoor conditions. The wiring harness supplied has been manufactured to professional RC standards, ensuring safe power distribution and eliminating the risk of electrical faults that could occur with improvised installations. The complete package is engineered to work in harmony with the Revolution 235 CP's existing electrical and mechanical systems, requiring no modifications to the helicopter's core structure whilst providing immediate night-flying capability. This is an electronics-focused kit that prioritises reliability, safety, and ease of installation for RC helicopter enthusiasts throughout the UK who want to expand their flying operations into evening and night-time hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Blade BLH-1791 Night Kit compatible with my Revolution 235 CP? — Yes, this night kit is specifically designed for the Blade Revolution 235 CP helicopter. The kit has been engineered with this model in mind, ensuring that all components, including the black night blades, LED strips, and wiring harness, integrate seamlessly with your existing Revolution 235 CP without requiring any modifications or additional adapters.
- What exactly does this night kit allow me to do with my RC helicopter? — The BLH-1791 kit equips your Revolution 235 CP with all the essential lighting and visual components needed for safe night-time flying. The black night blades combined with the LED strip lighting system ensures your helicopter remains clearly visible in low-light conditions, allowing you to extend your flying sessions into evening and night hours whilst maintaining proper visual control of the aircraft.
- Do I need any additional components or batteries to use this night kit? — The kit is designed as a complete package containing all the physical components needed for night flight capability. However, you will need an existing Blade Revolution 235 CP helicopter to install this kit onto. For specific information about power requirements and whether your current battery system will support the additional LED lighting, we recommend contacting our team at RC Model Shop on 01543 577278 for expert advice tailored to your setup.
- How difficult is it to install the Blade BLH-1791 Night Kit on my helicopter? — The kit has been designed with user-friendliness in mind. The included wiring harness is pre-assembled, which eliminates much of the complexity involved in custom wiring. The black night blades are standard rotor blades that swap in the same way as your existing blades, and the LED strips are designed for straightforward mounting. However, if you're unsure about any aspect of the installation process, the experienced team at RC Model Shop is always happy to help with guidance or support.
- Are these black night blades the same size as my standard Revolution 235 CP blades? — The black night blades included in the BLH-1791 kit are designed specifically for the Blade Revolution 235 CP, meaning they are the correct size and weight-balanced for your helicopter model. This ensures that replacing your standard blades with the night blades doesn't affect the flying characteristics or balance of your aircraft.
- What is the advantage of black blades for night flying? — Black rotor blades provide exceptional contrast against the night sky, making them far more visible and easier to track visually compared to lighter-coloured blades. This high-contrast design is crucial for maintaining proper orientation and control of your helicopter during darkness, reducing the risk of disorientation that can occur when blade visibility is poor.
