I think 600mm TST V Blades are awesome on a 50 size heli - full on 3D.
I have a few sets of blades in waiting currently, but 600 TSTs will take some beating in my opinion.

Cheers,
Rob

I use the standard

Thunder Tiger 600 carbons on all my helis. No probs so far.

Have also tried NHP Razors but not so impressed with those.

The ones that suit your heli and flying style the best

Whats best, blone, brunette, or redhead.

Its entirely down to the individual.

Incidently its brunette

Only thing I can add is I didnt like Manics as I got a wobble on them unless I ran them constantly at 2100 anything lower and they hated it.

so I suppose their ok if your gonna do mainiac 3D, much as the name suggests.

me I like Radix, but has to be said alot of that is because of the design LOL, not really a recommendation.

Depends what you want to do, if you are looking to step up from woodies, then a decent set of Glass, or even a set of cheaper carbons. I fly JP carbons and they do me fine, 100% improvement on woodies. If your looking for the ultimate in blade, most will say radix, I have never flown them as i cannot justify the cost.

Id prefer Radix blades... they look the business and perform well for me. Im not doing mental 3d moves or anything like that but i can feel they are very percise. I have NHP Carbon razors and JP carbonrotor on other helis. The NHP are not as nice as the Radix but still seem to perform very well for say sport flying. I have 2 sets of JP blades and the newer design of the 2 seem to be an improvement from the older ones. They are balanced much better and seem great for the type of flying im doing. (Rolls/Loops/stall turns).

I'm hooked on the V TST's too, I've gone from Radix to them as they suit my flying style better. I also like the BBT Maniacs, seem quite nice on Ash's machine, not put them on mine yet, I'd say very close to the V's in terms of flight performance...Radix are again nice blades, a bit more progressive and smoother than other blades.

Hi Guys thanks for the input so far but for those who said whatever suits your style . Its a general opinion i am looking for. I am well aware that different blades suit different
people.

I think for your money the maniacs are the best...If you have a heavy wallet however then I would go for the V tst's.

That's what I would do personally...
