New to the gasser world, previous heli's are electric and 450 or smaller

For the standard Intrepid, what are the recommended make/models of main blades?

What technical specs would I look for when selecting main blades?

Where are the best sources for the main blades?

The sources I had for the T-Rex start petering out when you get to 720mm blades

The standard Intrepid Gas likes 710-720 blades, such as those from V-Blades. http://vblades.com/ We try to keep a stock of them here, but they usually go pretty quick....:)

The root size that you need for the Intrepid line are 14/4, 14mm root thicknesses and a 4mm bolt hole.

And, lucky you...the source is quite close to Chicago:)

Welcome to the Gasser world. It's a great place to be!:thumbup:

That's what I think too

But I'm starting to think this may be a bigger shift than from gliders to helis.

But I'm really looking forward to it
