Man these prototype vblades for the trex is the best blades so far I've flown !! Rolling autos, and pushovers so far . These blades seem to have a good bit of hang time at the end of a auto.

So far the Medusa wins hands down for me . I've tried other motors and the Medusa seems to kick a%% everytime. Man I tell ya this g4 frame reallly rocks. It's amazing how durable they are. Keep up the good work Charley!!!

It should not be to much longer. Maybe a month or so. I think the are going to sell for about $50. I was in Kansas last weekend trying them. I did manage to pancake a auto trying to see how much blades speed I could bleed off and still have enough for the flair. The only damage was the boom got bent during the boom strike. Thier was no damage to the blades.

I will try to get it by tomorrow. The V's ROCKED, can't wait to try to get a set. I'm kinda low on the food chain though so good thing I got a few sets of some generic CF blades from Mac to last me until....
As far as HC's flights, have you ever tried to do aerobatic autos with a TREX in 25 MPH winds? HC does!! :shock:

My G4 is finally taking shape. Looks to be a *****in machine!
Hope to have RTF tomorrow. I think I can build an Ion-X faster than these little helis.

Thank you, it was quite a put together, but seems like a ROCK solid machine. Can't wait to take it somewhere other than the driveway.
