Edge Flybar Blades for the 500 class.

Jimmy! · 12-21-2009, 11:37 AM

Has anyone used the new Edge 423mm blades on their Atom/Protos/500? I know some blades work great on certain sizes better than others. I'm not looking for any debate on what blade is better/worse, I just want to know HOW the Edge compares to, say, Rotortech, Align, Mavrikk G5, etc.

Collective pop?
Cyclic speed?
Efficiency?
Autorotation?

I also am looking for info on these blades I am torn between these and the radix 430mm.

Any info would be great.... I am looking to swing them on my T-rex 500esp.

today i got the chance of testing my FBL EDGE 425mm blades on my Trex, i can compare them to 425 align 'F' and 'D' blades and SAB 430mm blades.

wel the heli felt far more agile and the collective pop was better then with the other blades, the blades 'fart' quicker then the other blades i use but they fart less hard so that means that the blades are efficienter !

i will absolutely buy another pair of those blades, i really like them !
