Hey guys, I'm sitting here thinking about flying (since there's about 10,000km between me and my heli at the moment) and the thought occurs to me that sooner or later I'm going to need replacement blades. In my dreams I never crash but......
So what non-stock blades have you tried and what did you think of them?

Edge blade are great. Pretty well balanced, fairly tough & look good.

I have tried Align, Maverick, a bunch of other CF blades. Every time I kept coming back to Egde. Track great, fart loud, look good, and fly awesome right out of the package. Just bolt them in and go! I may be a little bias since I am a rep for Edge but flying as long as I have and building and flying over 70+ Helis I call tell you they are worth every penny!!
But, in today's Heli world just about any FBL blade will stand up to the challenge.

I use the cheap Pro 3D blades while I am still crashing regularly. I love them for the price!

Chitty, I like the way you think. As new as I am to the sport I'm not sure I could tell the difference between a cheap set of blades and an expensive set anyway. Think I'll stick to the 3Ds and live to spend another day!

Think I'll stick to the 3Ds and live to spend another day! Honestly they have treated me well. I have never come across a set that I couldn't track and I have never balanced them. I am by no means an aggressive pilot but I do flips and I am working on my inverted flight now. Once I get inverted figured out I am sure I will be back to hardly crashing. If I didn't have these I would not be learning as fast because of the cost. Every so often they are in stock in the U.S. and I usually order 3-4 pairs at a time.
