All I can say is PRACTICE> PRACTICE> PRACTICE!

I thought those AIRY HARDEN II blades were supposed to be NUKE PROOF! Is it cold where you fly? I saw the video on Youtube of a LamaV3 repeatedly being crashed into a concrete wall, with no blade damage. Another of a guy striking the blade over & over again with an aluminum bar, then bending them into a "G" shape.
What do you mean you keep breaking blades?[] That's not right, defective blades!?[:'(]
Hey again Rick,
No it is not cold here - today is 32ÂșC (in Sydney - not far!) But I fly indoors each month in a High Ceiling BB court. I also watched that video - it is kinda right. My Airy IIs will bend like that also (if I am game to try) but when getting enough speed up and the forces involved and splat. But sometimes I get it right now - thanks to you! I don't think my blades are defective - just the pilot!

Thanks for your help - I guess I just need to keep trying them (now that I am sure that I am doing all the correct things)

Peter
