SAB 630 Blackline 3D on Fusion / Cyclone 615

[Arcturus97]

Anybody use the SAB Blackline 630 3D blades on their Fusion? I ordered a set on Black Friday to give a try. I'm using Cyclone 695 on my G700C and really like them, almost got the Cyclone 615 but didn't want to go down in size from the Edge 623 and Radix V2 625 I've been using on the Fusion.

I got the SAB Blackline 630 blades today. As soon as I opened the box the large bolt hole was apparent. I failed to notice that they are 5mm bolt hole. Fusion (and I think most 600s) use 4mm bolt hole. The root size is fine at 12mm.

Is there such a thing as a 5mm to 4mm x12mm long sleeve?

Yes there is, this set has the sleeves you need.

Thanks Flint! I also found these brass tubes at Ace Hardware, but its not worth the effort to cut those plus they are 3/16" OD (4.76mm) so not exact. I'll order the CY shims unless some of my local friends have any in their RC junk drawers.

If I'm not mistaken, Edge blades come pre-drilled with a 5mm hole and a brass bushing sized for 4mm bolts; I have some *cough* used blades at home that I could send you the bushings from if your other offers don't work out.

Thanks Jim!
