Default Carbonfiber byron mustang blades

Gentelmen

I think that Iron Bay is thinking along the lines of liability.

Althought one has resposibility to maintain the aircraft, the lawyers will sue anyone with pockets. For Iron Bay just to answer a summons(?) will cost them a minimum of $2,500 to $3,000.

Still the plastic blades can cause equal damage as a composite one.

I think Iron Bay has thier hands full right now just trying to get rolling. I would look outside of Iron Bay for the composite blades.

I would consider carbon/kevlar constuction. Carbon for stiffness, kevlar for strenth if anyone developes one. Thats what my 109's will be. One day .
