I've taken the CF blades off and replaced with plastic Fusuno ones. Basically because I want it to be a larger/reliable 130X replacement 
And in that, it's great. It's had two crashes so far. One was full chat against a fairly hard playing field. It bounced a good few feet and ejected the LIPO! The main frame is A BRICK! - not a scratch on it! So not only does it not flex like the original - it can take a crash too! Plastic blades survived also!
My second crash was much lighter and I was flying above fairly long grass. It just flopped into the grass, I picked it up and went flying again!
It does have the DS76 servos though, but like I say, I've never had a problem with them TBH.
There's actually three of them now at our club - and everyone seems pleased with them. We took a vid of Ross flying Rich's the other day ... you can see the evidence here..

Hmmm,
I can see your thinking as a 130x replacement, certainly flys well does it not!
Do the Fusuno blades make any difference to the feel? Also does it have auto hub? (not that it matters really)
