Since crashing the 550 recently I decided to try out some 550 blades. I've always ran 500mm blades, RCPII's and BBT Maniacs.

So I picked up a CF long boom, some Pro 550mm CF blades from Helidirect, a long belt from Modefos and some TREX500 landing gear to save some weight.

With just a test hover in the drive way its got quite a bit of pop. Blades tracked perfectly and it sounded quite a bit bigger.
Looking forward to trying it out tomorrow at the OCMA funfly.

Sorry for the terrible pic but my camera doesn't work anymore.
