[kelly steed]

eb used for cam work only,can i use any thing to make my disc more vissable,with the black 800s,high up would be nice to see my blade.had a experanced where i lost sight of choper,the only thing you have to go by some times is blade noise.

I've seen some of the scale helis that have painted thier blades. Also read of others putting reflective tape on the tips before V's started coming that way. Thinking of doing something like that myself. If for no other reason than not getting whacked in the chins reaching for the head button :shock:

How did you end up with more than one chin, and what are you doing with your face that close to the rotor anyway? :mrgreen:

Thanks for pointing out my fingers spelling errors :roll:

I fly 810 black V blades on a turbine and find them very hard to see. I have used white monokote trim applied to blade tips but for some reason I didn't care for that either. Seems that if you painted the blades, ballance would become a issue. Are there no white 810s?

Mark,

It was just a playful jibe. :mrgreen: It made me chuckle.

I think I saw some from SAB or MAH once. Can't remember which had the white blades.

Yeah, I got that :)

NHP also has white 800mm blades. You can get them from Len Sabato at RC Helis Plus. The price, as I recall, was around $125.

That's right...NHP was the one I was thinking of

I currently have white NHP 800s on my Intrepid and they are quite visable. I had black before that and I did notice a difference when I went to white.
