Align Blades

[M_Serra]

Hey everybody! Everything cool?
I need help, i've crashed again and the SWE main blades i had were in pretty bad shape so before i try to fix them with some epoxy, i've bought the Align Pro blades. I just want to ask if those holes closer to blade grips have any bad effect on flight?

[maderdog_1024]

i believe you can buy weights to fit in there.

i have flown a few sets of those blades with no adverse effects.

i quite like the align pro carbon blades as they can take light crashes quite well.

[M_Serra]

Yeah? Nice, my old SWE blades were great too in those light crashes, but this last one the heli went to a iron fence...and now they're a little worse but i think i might be able to repair them.

Wheights in that spot? Never seen anything like that and now you made me ask, what's the purpose in that place? Stability?

[maderdog_1024]

i think its stability or 3d, i never bothered and didnt really notice a difference.

i like the pro carbons as they dont shatter like the fiber or woodies

[M_Serra]

I've never had carbon blades, just woodies and fiber. Love those fiber, hope to say the same thing about these carbon.

[maderdog_1024]

the fiber ones are brittle.
the carbon ones are carbon re-enforced and NOT carbon fiber.
carbon fiber are not worth it imo.

the carbon ones serve me well on the blade 400

[M_Serra]

Humm, ok, i didn't know that. So these align i've bought are carbon re-enforced and it seems that the fiber ones i've broken are re-enforced with carbon too. Ok...that will be good. Thanks
