325 blades on belt cp
Just wanted to know how many guys run 325 blades on a belt cp. I bought a set, felt like they where more stable, but I thought maybe they seemed like they threw the heli around with the stick input more than the 315 blades? The 325 have the square end, and the 315 blades where symetrical, would that make a difference also?[8D]

the ends of the blades shouldn't make much difference. also, the longer blades should be less responsive not more (larger rotor disk to change direction). but if you put on 325 carbon blades vs 315 woodies then there would definitely be a difference. I don't use 325's as they might bog down the motor in high g manuevers.

yea i have both as far as being the align 315 woodies and the fiber(not carbon fiber)325's and so far i just like the responsiveness from the 315's over the 325's.

I guess that is what I am noticing, the heli does take a long time to move then when it does it seems to chuck the heli. I didn't really like them, i'm going back to 315's, I have got a set of align 315 high performance pro and two sets of stock Esky 315's. I think your right Druss, I didn't get the battery life that I get out of the 315's and my battery and esc got warmer than 315 blades also.

I went back to the 315 blades. Holy what a difference. The heli is way quicker. Had to tone it down a little, Throttle curve down and the sensativity of the sticks down, for my experience. Would this be right, or is it just my in my head? LOL.

Haven't tried the main rotors but I'm using 325 tail rotors on my belt CP, you have to grind the connecting end down a little to make them fit but they have just a little more area and give you a little more tail control.
