K&B Dream Design Tail Blades Review - These are hot!

Finless · 09-10-2007, 07:37 PM

Ok Ok..... honestly I did NOT believe it myself.
Kevin from K&B Designs was next to the "dawg pound" at IRCHA in a tent and came on a motor cycle. He started talking about his new tail blades and handed them out at IRCHA... I was totally skeptical! I mean a dude in a tent trying to tell us these tail blades which are plastic???? WTF... no way....... Give me a freakin break right?

WRONG.....

First I noticed many PRO pilots at IRCHA flying them all weekend.... I figured they were just being nice to Kevin and using the freebie's he handed out.

WRONG AGAIN....

Weeks later the guy kept buggin me to do a review and I gotta say I was still freakin sceptical....
WRONG AGAIN for a 3rd time!!!! HOLY CRAP these blades do rock!

So for the review on the 450 blades I decided I WOULD NOT DO IT and let the public do it. HF user Fireup (Kevin) is a friend of mine but like me tells it like it is. I trust him with a lot of confidence. So you know I was better than him and now he has passed me (not in auto though

). He's still a "bogg out the heli stick banger" but he is better than me now. But that's not the point. I do know when he tells me something flying wise it is usually right on!

So he tried the tail blades and get this.... He wont give them back to me!!!!

He likes them that much. Fireup.. please chime in man and tell it like it is as you feel!

So without further BS.... here is the test vid with pilot comments.

I have known Kevin along time he knows his stuff i did the same thing he kept telling me wait till Ircha you can try some i was like ok
Bolted a pair on and i have them on all my machines they work very well wiht the Logictech gyros as well i even like the 450 Blades and they very durable

I havent touched a carbon tail blade since i got these and like the flo colors iam sure kevin will have some more cool stuff coming soon....

The crazy part they are only 8 bucks best 8 bucks you will ever spend on a Heli!!

Whoa.. Bobby Smith chimes in!

No kidding... Great respect Bobby!

I haven't done a BIG test on the 600 blades and K&B Kevin is sending me the correct size (I had 90 sized) but I am DIEING to try them now on my 600!

Just giving you a hard time bob

Iam in 600N video withdrawals. Doesn't it seem strange there isn't a lot of after market tail blade options for the 450 considering their popularity? What kind of flex is there in the blades ? Is it as bad as the gorilla tail blades ?

Big Fil · 09-10-2007, 09:15 PM

Cool this is great. I was just about to buy a set of the Hyperions CF's but what the hell i'll give these a try. Too bad they don't come in black as some people don't care for their helis to look like it was part of the Poison rock band. One more thing the "Where your dreams become reality!" slogan is right up their with "Conquer your heart".
