I am flying with the Radix, They fly really well and auto nicely. However, I had a set of Sabs, and they auto superb. The sabs flew well also and were relatively quite. So its a trade off. Take your pic, they are all excellent blades.

I'm a big Radix fan but my LHS was out so I put the VBlades on, which I usually don't love (on my e600's that is). But for some reason they are working great on the nitro. You can't go wrong with either. It's a matter of taste.

Im running V-Blades on mine, and they are superb, i normally use radix, but V's just makes everything just that little bit more extra snappier when you want it.

Why not have the best of both worlds and just run one of each?

I got some heavier VBlades, don't remember how many grams, but they were the heaviest I could get. Still plenty of snap but I feel like they auto better.

Align CF blades

Can anyone share there thoughts on the Align CF 3k blades for the 600N. they are what I bought for my 600N. Love them on my 450 V2. Ran a set of Radix 325mm on my 450V2 and they kind of bogged the head down more then the Align CF 3k blades on the 450....Jim

I don't have a 600N but what I REALLY like about Radix Blades is their smoothness. No weird tendancies and very tolerant of collective Fubars. They don't bog very easily at all and that's even when you wang in a bunch of collective all at once. Nice predictable blades that make you look like a better pilot than you actually may be...

yer the radix r good, but you have to have better collective managment on the v's.
and thats because they r stiffer, and the radix are slightly softer.but again good collective managment helps alot.

I just think for the average weekend warrior, the Radix are far more forgiving. From what I have seen of the V's they are pretty 'bitey'.

I have flown MAH, Radix, V-Blades, Align 600CFs, SABs and TTs. My favorite used to be the Aligns before trying the V blades. The Aligns perform very well and are currently on my 600N. They auto well and 3D very well. I found the Radix slow on the cyclic due to their larger air foil, were much louder (blade flutter) in the air but they do auto well. I like the V-Blades just a little better than the Align 600As because they're a little stiffer and a tad more responsive. I found the SABs very slow on the cyclic but they auto very well. The MAH, because of their small air foil(Dual taper design) are much quicker on the cyclic but at a price on their autorotation hang time.

Just my experience.

FWIW, I was prepared to stick with Aligns but got a good deal on the Vs from ReadyHeli and could not resist.

Tried Align Radix, and TT on my 600 E... Liked the TT best overall, but it's really a matter of preference...
