A buddy of mine jsut purchased a walkera 60b
http://www.xheli.com/walkera-h60b-3d-helicopter.html

it uses a 290mm blade and we are wondering what the effect of running a 325mm blade reason being is 290's do not seem to be available at any of our local stores

what are your thoughts on this

Prob a bit hard on the motor thats all i can think. You can get 310/315mm blades for 450s pretty commonly i think. Buy some cheap ones and try it it can't hurt it. Might be great lol

Axe 400's use 325 mm blades if that info helps. Most of the parts are exactly the same size as a 450 trex. I would think its within tolerance.

You might want to slow the headspeed down using a smaller pinion though. It will certainly reduce the strain on the motor.
