I'm looking into getting some Radix Tail Blades for my Skippy 50, but I'm unclear as to what size to get and why. 92? 95? help!:shock:

I've used Radix 92mm tail blades on my AS50 for about a year now and they're just great.
I went for 92mm blades as I wanted to use SAB 620mm main blades and I did'nt want to risk the blades touching. The 92's are every bit as good as the 95's so I doubt you'll notice any difference.
I dont know what gyro etc you're running, but here's what I use for tail control.
CSM 720 Gyro
Futaba BLS 251 (Brushless servo)
Radix 92mm tail blades
Quick UK boom servo mounts & carbon pushrod.
There's another 3 Airskipper 50's at our club and all of them use Radix 92mm tails.
Hope this helps you
Garry :cheers

Thanks Garry I'll get the 92's then.....I'm running a JR 770 Gyro with 8900G digital servo and 600 mm Heli Max Blades but will be getting the Radix 600mm to go with the tail blades later.
