Anyone running 473mm blades with stock setup ?

I flew yesterday with 465s and I thought it was pretty awesome. I reduced collective to 11.5 and while it has a smidge of bog under sustained load, it recovered quickly and was no hinderance.

Agree 100% entirely with ^ this bloke.

You definitely need to give a set of bigger blades a spin. Halo 450, Edge 473 or the Spin 465 - just give one of them a try. The bigger disc is perfect for this size heli, I thought it would bog more but it really doesn't its about the same, even if you're just cruising around it is noticeably better.
