The Rail 716's are 196.7g.
For context here's some other blades I have:
Radix V2 710mm: 202g
Edge 695mm: 175g
Helix 695mm: 185g (Huge blade root requires no shims)
For length to weight ratio, the Rails are quite light. I threw on my Radix blades on the nitro just for fun and did not like them at all. They are wide chord and bogged the motor down during hard moves. I run these on my 12S machine.
The Edge 695's (FB blades) are surprisingly good. These are my test blades in most circumstances but, on a nitro rig, fly really well obviously due to weight and because their COG allows for quick cyclic response. Box flying and quick/tight moves are fun with these blades, but they lack collective authority, don't auto that great, and don't quite track well in big air/power moves.
The Rail's have a perfect balance of all of the above. They do all the big air stuff well and remain crisp and fast in rolls/flips as well. The 695mm's are really the ticket on a nitro, but with a 120srx, 8.0 gear ratio, and 22.5%, the machine can haul the 716's without any issue.
