  • 620mm Carbon Blades for Titan ?

    Does anyone know of a good source for 62cm Carbon Fibre main blades for the Raptor Titan?

    Google has failed to hit any UK suppliers on line

    Cheers.

              Crashing it mainly

              But between crashes it will be just "normal" sports flying, nothing fancy even when I stop crashing.

                JP Carbon blades will do fine for your style of flying then - and they are only approx £35.

                There are alternatives, but not that I have tried - in that price range.

                I hope that helps.

                      Hi

                      There are a few makes of 62cm blades around but a lot more chioce in 60cm, I persoanly still run 60cm jobs (Radix)
                      Longer blades will be slightly more stable but the differnce in stablity between makes of blades makes more of a differnce than their length.

                      Your woodies will be fine for now as long as you keep the head speed sensible and glue the roots on.
                      NHP, SAB and BBT make 62cm carbon blades.
                      Every one makes 60cm carbon blades, stick with any of the major brands and you will be fine.
                      Be warned that once you switch to carbon blades you won't want to go back to woddies so this can make learning more expensive as they break just as easy.

                      Cheers

                        Agree with all of the above,woodies are fine and can actually be quite tough,keep within manufacturers recommended headspeed which will always be lower than allowed with carbon

                        JP carbons are very good for the price,so are Sabs and the new Thunder Tiger ones..All of these are at the cheaper end of the Carbon blade market

                          I personally use quite a few of the JP carbon blades, at the moment I have them in 550's, 600's and 710's they are a great blade for the money and aren't that disimilar in looks or performance to the more expensive SAB blades, which I was originally using.

                          Cheers,
