I'm just about out of options with blades. After i cracked a set of TT 600mm blades, i tried to get some more, but no one has them. I have looked for radix and V Blades as well. The only thing i have found is NHP at my hobbyshop. I wasn't really impressed with them because they are solid black. I lot of the video's and pictures that i see of some pro pilots are flying either V Blades or Radix. Of the ones i see flying V blades, they all seem to have some kind of white (maybe reflective) sticker on the tips of the blades, top and bottom. Is this something they get added on from the factory that is under the protective coating, or is this something they add on themselves right on top of the blade? If it's something they have added, where do i get it?

If anyone knows where i can find a set of TT, Vblade, or Radix, please let me know! Everyone that i have checked is sold out of these blades!

Andy can correct me on this, but IIRC V Blades have the reflective strips molded into the blade.

Heck HeliProz has only their Pro G4 blades in 600mm other than wood. Must be a lot of busted 50 size helis out there.

V Blades is offering a free set of paddles with the purchase of 600mm blades, $115. [link]http://www.vblades.com[/link]

You can add your own tape just remember to balance the blades. You can buy tape here:

The VBlades have flash strips molded in.

Radix blades sell out quick so if you see them in stock you'd better order them!

Just an FYI but those 60 dollar blades are NOT VBlades, the TRex blades, which ARE real VBlades cost that much.

Are you sure? If you go to heliproz website, and look at the picture of the VBlades, they dont show a flash strip on it. Just the little sticker near the root. I went out and flew with he NHP's today. They arent terrible. I'd say they fly maybe just a little more aggresive than my TT blades did. They are a lot noisier too. I just wish i could see the darn things. Once i get to spinning at 1500 and up, they dissappear! But they do fly good. Thanks for all the replies, but no one has any of the blades that i wanted. Another forum i posted (getting a raptor 60) someone suggested looking up a hobby shop in chicago. On their site, it says they are in stock, but when i called, they didnt have anything. I guess these NHP's will have to do for now. Maybe i can put some of that chrome tape Dabiandog was talking about on them.
