  • Paddle stickers

    Do the stickers on the 600n std paddles stay on?
    Or are they going to fly off and leave me with a heli that doesn’t fly nice.
    Are there some adhesion enhancement precautions I should take?

    they stayed on my 600e for 100+ flights, not sure about the nitro attacking them. just degrease them before sticking

    if not, change them for super stubz, they are awesome!

          Replace them with the align carbon versions then you won't have to worry about it.

              That sounds like a man who had an unexpected mechanical failiure, i know your pain had a servo horn snap on me last year, not good.

                I put th carbons on and have taken them off again not a very linear movment very grabby past half stick. I had a sticker come off my shuttle once and to be honest I couldnt tell the difference however if you lost two on the same paddle you might . but I dont think its going to crash teh model just maybe make it twitchy(im only guessing thou)

                  My first set of stickers stayed on the paddles for ages.
                  One peeled off recently, and it's replacement has peeled off in just a few flights - probably down to not enough degreasing going on.

                  Stubz are on it now, which fly brilliantly.
                  Cheers,

                      It will fly just fine without the odd sticker..In fact if flies surprisingly well with only half a flybar and one paddle..sounds a little funny but certainly doesn't throw itself into the ground..In fact it still piroflipped remarkably well

                        I thought my ticktocks were pulling to the side a bit on my rappy once, and when i landed it I found one of the washout links to the swash was completely missing. Still flew pretty well.

                        V2 washout without the little E clips onthe pins - mnow replaced with the titan plastic version.
