  • Best place to get cheap reliable trex 450 carbon blades?

    Hi all,
    I decided to try a pair of glass fibre 325 blades that came with my original TREX 450 XL (i've had it for more than 4 years but never tried it on - always using 325 pro wood blades) and WOW! i was very impressed!. i'm only a beginner (sadly even with more than 5yrs experience.. never really got to fly much.

    anyhow - the heli felt more stable and solid that i was even able to fly up to house roof level!
    so anyway - i'd like to know where you guys get your carbon blades from? as i'd like to get a couple. i think no more wood for me (well, maybe i'll keep a pair)

    thanks

            you should have a go with the align 325d's if you like your fibreglass jobbies you will love the 325d's ok i know they are loads more money but get your self some for hovering only
            my father inlaw got some composite blades from HK and they were cheep and did not even need balancing i will try and find out what they were im sure he said 10 pairs for £20 or something mad like that

              fibreglass blades suck!

              The ones in Bens link are what you want. Ran them for ages on the Pro, and now run them on the 500.
