Do you need any beta testers! This looks like a product we all need! Do you have any idea what retail might be? What do they weigh compared to the CF or wood blades?

I have been looking around the web for these for a while now. Once you get them in production are you going to sell them direct before retailers pick them up? I'd be very interested in pickin up a few pair asap

I'll take a pair as well.

I think you'll find people will be very receptive on here about your blades for the Blade. Many owners here.
Great job. Looks good !

I would like to get my hands on some of your new blades when you go into production (direct sale would be awesome - since I'm sure it would take a while to get them into distribution). Myself and two friends are all new Blade CP owners and beginner/novice heli rc-er's. Needless to say, we've been going through some rotors!! The local (Dallas,TX) hobby shops are loving us!!

interesting, so they've been finally made.... good job! I wouldn't mind having a pair, though I don't have that heli... I'd like to do some testing on them, and possibly use them on a heli (I've always wanted to make one you know...)

I have one question how did you make these?

Sparky, it might be a good idea to put this on the BladeCPRepair.com forum. The site is growing and it's for BCP only.

This is just what my buddy needs. The balsa blades just don't last very long for him.

Hey Sparky,

Is your prototype made of plastic or Delrin? If Delrin, are you going to create an injection mold or continue to make them out of Delrin?

Just curious...

I might be interested if the price is right.

Judging by the lack of response from the originator, maybe production isn't going so well....

It sure looks like they would hold up better than wood blades while being soft enough to avoid the damage that CF blades cause when they hit anything. My CF blades have sliced right through my tail boom twice! It looks like these would be a great "learning" blade.
