What blades are you using on your Ion-x?

[sm1nts2escape]

My ion should be arriving tommorow and my tools should be arriving within a couple days :) So next week I should be ordering my main and tail blades.I know some of you have been selling the light 690 v-blades and 105 tails.I want the blades that are going to give me the most cyclic authority.So what are you using and why do you like them?

I have used V's, SAB's, Radix and TG's on my Ions. I currently have on a set of Radix 690's. They have the best feel overall to me.

I've tried MAH, NHP, SAB and V's. I like the 690mm VBlades the best, 175g or less - crisp, fast, predictable cyclics - great collective pop.

I tried 95mm t/r blades a while back but didn't like them - great tail authority with 105's.

Chris (ex-minair) recommended TG 690's (~180-185g) to me almost 2 years ago now. That's all I've ever flown it with. I loved them from day one. Also, I'm still using the stock plastic 95mm tail blades and still like them as well. I don't see any reason the change for the time being. Mind you I'm not into anything close to hard 3D (not yet anyway).

Cheers,

710 V-Blades as light as I can get them. I call V-Blades and ask specifically for light in the 178-180 range I like best.

I run 105mm SAB Tail Blades

Running 690mm V-blades on mine and love them. I had 700mm MAH blades before which worked good too for smoother type 3D.

Thanks guys.I am going to start out with 690 v-blades first and then later after I have been flying for awhile I will try out the larger blades.
