I've been running the MAH blades, but believe I am getting some loading issues with these blades,
What other blades have worked for you guys well??
Thanks,
Jeff

Others have tried the Align CF 425 mm (white) blades for the T-REX 500 as well as Rotortech\Align (Black and Yellow) 430mm blades with good results. However, most places seem to have them out of stock.

I'm finally very pleased with the SAB 3D blades. At first i was disapointed compared to the stock Lepton blades. But with time i think they are very good. It depends of your flight style. If i want to really yshake the heli i remove the weights from my gorilla paddles. But most of the time i'm flying with the weights and the heli is flying like with the stock paddles.

I did have some issues with the MAH blades bogging the head. Changing to the Align 425mm CF blades really woke up my heli!

I have the 60gm SAB blades now on my TRex 500 and they are working great. I haven't tried it on the Lepton but they would likely do as well as the Align CF blades.

I am using the MS Composite 420mm, that is how I got it from the original owner of the Lepton. Have another set of LAign 425mm, haven;t tried it yet.
Any one tried the MS Composite 420mm blade before ?

I am running MAHs right now but I have no need for something too stiff since I am still doing just sport flying. I think I will pick up some of the Radix blades CY is working on for the T500 when they come out. They should be good ridgid blades. :)

MS 420 blades are making any heli extremely quick. Far too much in case with the Lepton or my SVE4S/Vibe 500. So they are good blades for who wants to really shake the heli.

Anyone know where I can order some MS composite 420 blade?
Espiritmodel use to have them, but all sold out.

I was going to use them, but decided to go with stock blades again.
