Blade Nano QX BNF with SAFE Technology is an interesting quadcopter. I flew it stock with the "transmitter" that comes with the Hobbyzone Champ during the maiden seen in this video.

Horizon Hobby describes it as the follow:

"The tiny Nano QX is RC flying fun you can take with you everywhere. The Nano QX weighs little more than half an ounce and is small enough to fly in spaces no bigger than an office cubicle. Never flown a quad-copter before? No problem. The Blade Nano QX uses the SAFE™ technology system with sophisticated flight control software to keep itself stable in a hover while in stability mode. If you get in trouble, just let go of the sticks. The SAFE technology system will bring the Nano QX back to a hover all by itself. Once you've mastered the basics, you can switch the SAFE system to agility mode for faster flying speeds and more maneuverability.

SAFE stands for Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope and is central to the performance of the Nano QX. Even new pilots will feel comfortable with the Nano QX in stability mode because SAFE will make sure the quad is always in control and in an upright fashion. You will feel an immediate sense of confidence and be flying around like a pro in no time!"

I would like to some it up like this:

Like AS3X Technology, the SAFE Technology is a work in progress. Once it gets a little more polish and tuned a bit better, both will be amazing. There are still a few bugs to be worked out, however.

Here are my review notes:

Pros:
Built to withstand punishment
Very inexpensive for what you get
Two canopy options with matching blades

Cons:
Cheap canopy
Hard to maintain altitude
Safe Mode did not feel like a beginner mode nor did it perform as promised

PS: This is a bit to small to try RC helicopter fishing, RC quadcopter fishing or RC quad-copter fishing. The QX Nano is fun and hard to pass up at this price. Once you get good with it, it will be easy to perform stunts, tricks, and other acrobatic moves without crashing.

Also, it is called a Blade Nano QX, not a Blade XQ Nano or Blade Nano XQ.
