Default Nexus main rotor blades

I have just purchased this blades (LXM046 HeliMax 30 Sport Rotor Blade White 550mm)
but I didn't check the blade length that my NEXUS should used I guess original NEXUS used around 535mm and this one is 550mm is this can be used on the NEXUS 30 HELIX???
pls help or any suggestion pls...


NOTES FROM OUR TECH DEPARTMENT
This is a Set of Sport Main Rotor Blades for some 30 Size Helis(not Concepts).

FEATURES: Fully Assembled and Shrink Wrapped in White Just Like the Stock Blade
Made of Four-Piece Wood and Weighted
Fully Symmetrical, but are Not Swept

INCLUDES: One Pair of Rotor Blades with Stiffners Already Bolted-On

REQUIRES: Assembly onto the helicopter.

SPECS: Blade Length: 550mm from mounting hole to tip
Width: 50mm
Thickness:12mm (at the root with plastic reinforcements)
Thickness: 8mm (blade only)

COMMENTS: These blades have 3mm holes where they will be attached to the rotor
grips. These blades are too long to fit on the Concepts, but will
work with many of the 30 size machines on the market.

As long as the main blades done overlap the tail rotar blades they will work

I have flown a Nexus with these blades ...
If you don't 3D with it (As if you could ...) They will work fine ...
Note that you will be putting more strain on the engine though, as the head is wider (Distance between the grips is bigger) then other 30 size helis ...

Not sure if these are the same blades as a local guy got...

If they are the same... unbolt the stiffeners, slice the covering out from under the stiffeners and CA them on when you bolt them back on. He failed to do that... and shed a blade.

Thanks to your suggestions!!!

I was just wondering what happened if I just removed this piece of stiffners that are already bolted-on =? does this will work perfectly? coz it seems like 3mm with the stiffners but without them it will fit perfectly!!!

what is the purpose of used this kind of metal stiffners???
