What size blades do you prefer?

Hey guys I have had helix 715 on since I had my 700 but now they are no longer in production, wanted to ask if the cyclones work well with this heli..I have them on the tail.

There is no other blade besides a Helix 715 I want on my 700 Xxtreme. Yet. But it's coming!

My 'but it's coming' comment was referring to a new blade that isn't available yet. As for Helix, I haven't heard that Nick has stopped producing them. If he can't or doesn't want to anymore then hopefully he'll sell the design to V-blades so they can keep making them.

^He's talking about VTX, just in case anyone was wondering. A blade with varying chord along the blade length. The blade actually gets wider outwards where most of the lift is produced, then ends in a vortex reducing tip that prevents it from stalling, no matter what you do to it. Airfoil is symmetrical reflex from what I've seen.

Cyclone 715s were the best blades I tested on this model they are agile and woke up the collective big time!

Yep, I will likely use those on my new 700SX. That is unless something better comes along.

I loved the 695's on my SE.
