I like SABs for the mains,you could look at Midlands website,they have 600mm Thunder Tiger carbons at the moment and i have tried them and love them..

One of the best blades i have ever used

What level are you at?

If your still learning the basics or circuits then woodies are fine or JP carbons are good for the price


On the tail i use anything really,standard plastic raptor blades are fine for most forward flight stuff

Hi there,

Still finding my feet, playing more with the sim than the heli, just looking ahead and getting the shackles off !

Lawser, if you're still learning (and crashing regularly), stick with woodies, they are much cheaper, just make sure you follow the distructions and glue the roots.

Once you get a bit more confident (and crash less often), try BBT's which are a good, but inexpensive carbon blade, and the come in white or black finish.

New from BBT are the Maniac blades, a little more expensive, but seem pretty good to me.

Thanks for the input guys, not crashed yet.........! Note i did say yet !
Once i get a bit more adventurous i'll change the blades,

Hi folks,

Went for the TT 600mm carbons.
Only one question though....There's a black dot on one of the blades, is this for some sort of calibration ?

Does it look like a "plug", in which case it'll probably be where a little lead was added to balance the two blades.

Hi Janek,

Yeah looks like a rubber plug !

Its a balancing weight..

I have brought 2 spare sets of those TT600s while Midlands have still got them as i really rate them

I just tried the new SAB 620s on my Sceadu Evo 50 (running with 95 Radix tails) and... well... WOW.

Nuff said really...
