Skylark main rotor blades
I broke one of my skylark main rotor blades. Can I use a piccolo or hummingbird main rotor blades instead? cuz the price of the skylark blades is $27 while the piccolo is merely $18. If anybody is using any of these blades in their skylark pls let me know. thanks in advance.

Skylark Blades
The Skylark blades have a smaller mounting hole that either the Piccolo or the Feda blades. The Piccolo blades will work on a Feda MiniDragonfly or Century Hummingbird if the hole is enlarged slightly. I have Skylark blades (as well as all the other parts) in stock at what I think are reasonable prices (the Skylark blades are a little less than the Feda/Hummingbird blades). Let me know if you want me send you price list.

Skylark main rotor blades
This seems to work for me to reduce start-up vibration:
1. Secure, BUT Do not overtighten the Rotor Blades to Rotor-Hub screws.
2. By Sight, Adjust the Main Rotor Blades to be as perpendicular to the Flybar as possible.
3. Grasp each Main Rotor Blade Tip-End and pull (Gently Yank) outwards. This seems to equalize them and allow almost-vibration free start-up. Then, during run-up, the blades will quickly 'adjust themselves' and smooth-out.
