  • night blades

    I tried my align 600D night blades on my 600n /beastX last night (not in the dark, just to seehow they fly). I'm running phoenixtech 600Ds on it and they have been fine.
    With the night blades it was like having 15degrees of pitch and 12 degrees of cylic - while it seemed to be stable without any wobbles in the hover I had to go easy on the controls or it would bog just with cyclic, never mind collective.
    These blades have always had a bit much pop, and tended to pull the motor revs down. It looks like to fly them I will need to reduce the control throws a bit.

    I'm wondering if its possible to do something to move the CofG forward - like stick some tape all the way along the leading edge to make them hang back a bit in the grips to make them more stable? Has anyone tried anything like that?

    Had a good thrash with my 600n beastX with home converted head last night. The 500 though has not been so successful and wobbles on the cyclic -it was more like 7.5 rather than 6 degrees to get ther blue light, and I had set it with the light red. I've got some shorter balls on the swash inner now and this puts it into the blue light zone at 6 degrees, just - similar to the 600n head so I'm looking forward to trying it.
