e-BEAM Beam E4 > 3500rpm with stock plastic tailblades is a bad idea.

I didnt think about it, but I switched to "real" 30C batteries and RPM went though the roof, unfortunally the tailblades did too.. (sort of).

Lession learned, use CF Tailblades for insane headspeeds.

Maybe you can try some of the K&B Dream Design tail blades and see if they hold up!!

BTW, why do you need 3500 RPM headspeed?

3000rpm's should be way more than enough.

Try 3500 and you will see why

It is FUN.

+ it was basically a mistake from the beginning, but with my new 30C batteries (that is REALLY 30 batteries), same curve as my new EVO25 on the throttle gave 3500)

Yea, I did try it, and it is fun at first.

But after a while unless your a 3D expert, the heli gets really hard to control when trying stuff at that fast a headspeed.

haha your insane. I am starting to fly alot harder and I find that 3200 to 3400 headspeeds is more than enough to fly hard 3d... What setup are you running to get those hs? How long are your flight times? Haha
