Ive been flying the mini titan for a few months now and I have tried the Radix CFs which are awesome. I am tired though of paying $50 when I break them.
I never have any problem with tracking on the stock woodies, I see some guys use the Align woodies instead.
How much difference do you guys see while using Align woodies?

I use both the Align Woodie 315 mm and 325 mm woddie blades with great success. The stock blades were horribly out of balance. If you change to other woodie blades, you'll need the blade grip spacers and probably aluminum mixing arms to get them to track properly. My aluminum parts are currently on order. :)

Yes, i have the spacers, as I have used them with the Radix 325's...I was asking what you thought of the flight characteristics between the TT woodies and Align woodies. I haven't found the TT to ever be that out of balance.

i don't know about flight characteristics between the stock blades and aftermarket's as i only used the stock blades for the first few flights. i did notice a 2+ minute gain in flight time though after swapping to align 325s.

most of my stock TT blades did balance pretty poorly as well. Probably something to do with having to cut and install those reinforcements at the root. Use a bit more glue on one side as opposed to the other.
Just no reason to fly the TT blades IMO. They sap power and aren't as responsive as the align 325's. Furthermore, the aligns are cheaper. To me, this is a no brainer.
I am running the stock plastic head atm with the newer version blade grips. I have no tracking problems though slight amounts of slop are starting to appear.

If you destroy blades often, then why not by these ones:

That's about half price... Why on earth would you go for woodies?
Happy flying.
