X2 spares?

[Beckler]

Hi, I think I'm going to pick up an X2. What are some must-have crash/wear spare parts? Also I'll probly go with a Futaba 6J--should be fine, right? (I want a basic radio 'til I get an 18MZ; lol) Also feel free to suggest anything else, like I hear there's limited blade choice? Are the stock ones no good? Tnks.

You will need the usual,
shafts, spindles and some flybars ,skids.

I am on a budget so I bought 205mm blades; flies good but not the same as the 255.

I have heaps of spares for the heli and she is flying well

I just picked 1 up and love it, Futaba and BeastX,
As last post the usual parts, also the boom supports are very fragile, so I ordered some from cnc heli, (check another post) and found the LG to be brittle in cold.
I ordered the align 250 LG for mine.(need to be re drilled to fit)
Read some of the other posts as well, very helpful, Enjoy!

Which 205 blades did you buy?

Hello,
I bought the $4 cheapies fibreglass from Ebay and hobbyking a few months ago.

I don't use idle up much so they are fine for general flying.

you just need some washers as shims as the 205 blades are a little thin in the root
