      620's make the heli even more stable and smoother and better for auto's paddles will help with tracking etc etc

        You have missed a few good evenings of flying!

        Alec and Shane were down as well both flying very well

        Nearly grabbed a heli to fly after work today but the rain this morning was bad I left them at home!

        I might get to fly after work at the weekend if i'm lucky....

          I know I've said this before.... if you want to improve the tracking of your Vibe 50 then stick the weights into the stock paddles or get some flybar weights for a couple of quid. You just need a bit more weight there, not necessarily a different paddle.

          How much of your flying time do you spend doing autos? Why is this part of the flying envelope so important to you? 620 blades will auto better than 600s, only because they are heavier and carry more momentum. But these factors will also hamper your flying because they will sap engine power from a model that is already a wee bit on the heavy side for a 50.

          I'm looking forward to getting a YS56 or OS55 into my Vibe 50 to make up for the little lack of oomph that it suffers from its weight problem, but will be sticking with 600 Radix blades.

                ...
                True.
                I'd still propose 620ies for practise - simply because learning autos got much more expensive for me than just a pair of blades.
                It may still be a good investment, just to make it easier - it doesn't mean that you have to fly them 'til the end of time.
                Personally, I think I'd learn faster, if given more room for mistakes and experimenting.

                  Had a great day today although the Raptor took a beating a few rough Auto's...

                  But the Vibe 50 is WAY Better for autos until the Align servo problem was spotted
