Those should be OK. I have been flying the Align white 425mm ones, the Align yellow 425mm ones (rotortech like), SAB 430 and new MAH blades. All of these blades are very good. I like the SABs. They're a little slower than the Aligns cyclic wise but they're a little stiffer. I haven't had any complaints. You could also now get the new 425mm V blades.
Joe We haven't seen Colonel Angus around these parts for years!
I just got my SAB 425's today and they are beautifull looking! It is interesting how everything affect helis. Different blades will fly differentl but any 425-430mm blade should work.

Oh I just saw you have 435 mm blades... just be carefull you have enough power. The stock Lepton tail doesn't hold weel if the rpm decays, try to load the heli slowly at first, if you bog the head and the rpm slows the heli will pirouette uncontrollably (it is like the gyro let go) and then you either need more power or less demanding blades or bigger tail blades. 5 or 6s battery setups are much less prone to this.
