Is there a difference between the green and red main blades besides color?

@ Zeal USA

Are your blades manufactured by Funkey?

No difference right now except color and size.

I don't own one anymore but if you produced ~225mm blades for the Trex250, you'd sell a bundle.
If there was ever a heli that needs lower disk loading, that's it.

+1, and it could use a FBL blade in general, there is practically no competition there and people go through blades like crazy (at least everyone I know with one) on those crazy Mosquitos.

I'd probably put at least one of mine back in the air if I could get a more stable and lighter disc.

Need to check out a set of the 570s on my Outrage 550. Not to sure about the difference between these and the Edge 553s I have been using.

Any Aussie distributors (that aren't going to hike the price by 50% compared to US pricing)?

EDIT: No ~425mm blades?

Revolution RC is a dealer and their order is shipping.

Also, Heli-Design in Germany. Their order is being prepped.

Cool, not dealt with them in a while but they were usually good.
Are you going to stick with the colours you have or perhaps do a slightly more subdued scheme in the future?

We will continue to make a very broad variety of options available.

Here is also an example of what we can do!

We can also make available, user designed graphics for custom orders. Of course there would be additional fees and probably a minimum quantity on any such order.

I know two guys that tried samples and they are too soft to be old edges. They are working on the foam to make them harder.

Those were lightweight prototypes and were 183 gram blades. The current production blade is 200 grams each and stiffer than the prototype.

The prototype was specifically testing a super light, "smack" design. The new foam is being tested with the goal of making lighter/stiffer blades.

Good to know. I think it's great to have blades with a fun design and several colors. I'm going to try them.
