Got 2 sets for my 600N and while I'm down to one set now :oops:, I love them. I'm comparing them in mild FF, some flips rolls, and basic flying compared to my Radix blades. The G5Pro's seem as light or lighter, as stiff or stiffer, and I really like the look vs the Radix which are IMO a great blade too.
I was nervous when I got them in a combo with my 600N sport I bought at heliproz as I searched some threads about Mavricks and people were bagging on them. Then again that might have been the G4 series. I had a set of those I got in a combo with my 600E CF and I sent them back b/c they seemed heavier, and not as stiff. Admittidly they are cheaper, but for the price difference I exchanged them for G5Pros.
I ordered 5 more sets today from Brian at heliproz :). Going with them exclusively now vs Radix as the price increase I can't justify yet. Maybe when I'm a better pilot I'll be able to tell a difference, but in talking with Brian at heliproz(sales so taken with a grain of salt) he said he flies them over Radix and Brian is very up front with me, to a fault sometimes lol. He's always treated me right and I feel compelled to pimp Heliproz a bit.
Also, today placed my first order at Rediheli and WOW, shipped within 2 hrs :). I like their website and the realtime inventory(like heliproz too). Won't be my last order with them. I was buying alot though AMainhobbies, which I still like, but sometimes would take 2-3 days to ship my order and since they are in CA, and I'm in IL would fall into recieving products next week. Generally not a huge deal, but I'm like a kid at X-mas when I order I eagerly anticipate my packages hehe!
btw I'm posting this NOT b/c I have any financial interest in promoting either hobby shop or product, BUT b/c it seems like alot of times all we post are complaints about products or shops.
