Hello! i own a minititan with a full kasama head, but i have problem finding some blades with the right root dimension. White Align cf are too big, HD 24 $ same... i have to grind down 1 mm on the root on all of them.
Maybe anyone of you know some smaller 325 size set i can buy somewere! and.. another question... what will happen if i will fit a 350 size or 335 size blades? shorter flight times? better climbs? less agility i suppose?
Thanks for help. By the way.. this is the beast!
ps: This head RULEz..

i remember i read somewhere in this forum that the kasama grip has two available width. the one with 5mm grip will take in radix as it comes. there is some post by AOX in this forum.... somewhere.
by the way martino, did you have TT metal head before you got the Kasama one? if yes, how do they compare in flight performance?

Martino, Look up "freakinovice" on RCG'S. I had the same problem with my 4.5mm kasama grips. He offered to inlarge them to 5mm for me. He's a machinist. Tell him CloudCruiser said to contact him. Good luck,
Robert

Bigger blades will probably most like get you a blade strike and take out the tail blades. Better off getting a better motor like the SE, has heaps of power.

Hey friend thanks for the info! i will contact him and ask him for the mod, so i will fit the blades back as they are.
Not that is so a mess to file them a bit on both sides.. but i prefer to use them as new...
For the motor setup..
Well, i have ascorpion -8, so i have really a lot of power (actually a LOT with this setup ! ) and im really happy with it.Actually i have had to reduce the pitch travel a bit until i will be use to this type of power... the SE compared... is really docile.
For the Minititan original head.. well i have tried on a minititan of a friend, but the setup was pretty different. He had the SE all stock, with hs 56 on cyclic and telebee gyro.
Mine have hs 65mg 401+9257 and scorpion motor/esc.
The different setup may have influenced my opinion.. by the way for what i have done (i m at flip roll and some inverted fly stage.. not too much 3d i mean... ) now that i have the kasama head i am SUPER happy.
The only problem is the main shaft that go too much inside the head block and hit the flybar system.... i had to file the main shaft too.. not only the blade .. grrr.. is really a pity that a jewel like this have something that to me can only be an error in the design.
