Default Blade Colors and Rotor Visibility

I was wondering what blade colors you folks were flying. I notice that Litemachines offers some nine (9!) different blade colors these days.

I am most interested to know if some blade colors are more visible than others in flight. I think it would be very helpful to me as a pilot, not to mention very snazzy looking, if I could actually see the rotor disk in flight.

I have flown black blades with yellow tips and white blades with red tips, but both rotor disks were essentially invisible except at close range hover.

Any suggestions?
