View Full Version : Night blades breaking / Folding back when spun up

I have MS Composit 550mm night blades (main) on a Logo 500 3d.

I have the blades tightened as usual (tight enough to move by hand, but not so loose they fall on their own when tilted).

The problem I am seeing is that the night blade power connecting pins are at a location that exactly falls into the blade holders. So when I first spin up my blades are folding back and crushing the night blade connectors - breaking them.

So, should I tighten the blades even more?

Am I maybe spinning up TOO SLOW?

Looking for some ideas.

Tighten the blades up some. Just be sure they are able to move in the grips so they can center when spooled up.
Also be sure you are using a soft start on your esc.

Tighten your blade grips.
