My Beam has Gorilla Gear, Paddlesw/weights for now and tail Blades.
No modification required. I tried to buy all 3 items together but had to get them seperatly

jamesppp,

I would not use those blades if I were you. They are the worst blades I have ever flown, they suck at every type of flying. Do yourself a favor and get some Align woodies.

Yep, those blades suck. I flew one pack with them. Took them off and put the pro woodies back on. Those so called carbon cheapo's actually deformed and drooped in the hot sun. I guess they can call them carbon blades if thery have a few grains of Carbon Black mixed in with the plastic in the mold. They are definitly not high modulas, oriented graphite weave rotor blades.
Those POS blades weigh 12g ea more than the Pro woodies too, so almost an ounce more a pair.

Anybody spinning any full 325mm blades on thier Beam?

Thoes blades are like some polycarbonate mix with some other junk in it(probably lead) But they do have a CF rod inside the blade.

I think those woodies are rated at 2800 RPM's max? Now I would run those aling woodies because there dirt cheap. But I will be running the scorpion -6 on 11T so I need blades that can handle 3000+ RPM'S.
Probobly Radix & V-blades are what I am going to run.

Where is the best place to get Radix blades in the States? I would like to find a set of 240mm for my JR Parkmite too.

Thanks

I dont think they make 240mm radix. Just 325's and 600's I believe(and 425 soon for the Trex 500)
