The 500mm blades came with mine. The XES also has a shorter tail boom.

The RCP carbon blades that ready heli carries are great, i love mine, My favorite blades are the rotortechs from Century (heliworld) but have not tried the 515's, only the 600's on my nitro's

You can also try NAH carbon blades in 500 mm and for the tail my best is KOK Composite in 85 mm. I try also the Gaui Carbon in 500 mm and they are very good.

I thought I heard way back when... that RCP was supplying Gaui with the 500 blades... and Gaui was re-branding them as thiers.
