3G or not 3G

24-04-2012, 09:25 AM

Thinking or converting either my TRex600n or Trex700n to flybarless but have a question on blades which I'm sure must have been asked a thousand times.....

Do you need to have a set of 3G or flybarless blades????????

I understand that the weighting of the blade is further out along to blade to aid stability - has anyone run normal blades on flybarless???

Just trying to pin down costs and obviously a £70+ set of blades is going to hurt the pocket.

Comments, thoughts?

I run normal blades on my Trex 500 with Vbar and no issues!
