High Viz Main Blades
Anyone have some recommendations for colored 325 size main blades?
I can't seem to find a whole lot of selection. I have the KBBD blades, but they are too wide and don't allow the blades to be folded back. Picked up a set of Zeal Orange blades, but they aren't really that colorful. Did all the manufacturers just close shop? Seems like there are a lot less these days.

In flight white gives you the most visable rotor disk.

The conditions you're flying in play a big part in visibility. A nice sunny day will light up the disc and make it easy to see with the sun behind you. An overcast day will test your skills and confidence to fly through maneuvers.
I like revolution and align blades with reflective stickers. |

So where do you guys apply the stickers... one on the top of one blade and one on the bottom of the other, or both on top or bottom?

To maintain balance you could get some orange duck tape wrap around each blade in the same spot at the end. You need to get it in the exact same spot from the end or you will throw the ballance off.
