Im getting a X-Spec with carbon blades. This is my first heli and id like to learn with wood blades (cheaper to crash) but i dont know what works well or will best suit the heli. Any help would work. Thanx

Century sells the AeroTech brand that are good for learning. If you are running a 60 or 70 in that X-Spec, get the 660mm Symetrical. 680-690s for a 90 engine.
Reason the the shorter blades than you've probably read about, is that the X-Spec head has a wider grip spacing, and requires shorter blades. 680 blades on that head equate to 700s on most other heads.
