Hello guys, I have a raptor 30 OS 37.... it flies great, I am flying with 550mm woodies and it's ok, I just wonder if there would be a big difference if I get some carbon fiber???? lot of difference???? I am flying inverted, doing flips and loops.... what changes would I see???? while doing flips, the engine bugs, I know the 30 has is limit, but I wonder if getting the carbon blades would help.....

Also, I wanted to know if I can get these blades on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=140238593281

do you think guys they could be good????? I would think blades are blades but I am not sure.... if I get those I would pay 40dlls shipped to Canada, if I get some on heliproz.com I would pay 45dlls + 20dlls shipped to Montreal, that is why I was wondering if those blades are good, I would love to save that money......

thanks!!!!

where can I get good prices of CF and FG??????
I live in montreal, I pay 25dlls of shipping from the US :O(

Are the FG good or I should go straight to CF????

Man I really would mind paying 60dlls for blades... the woodies I have always used cost me 20bucks, hehehehehe, and they are great!, but I wonder if with CF would get more HS or I would feeel better the heli...
