Align 360mm blades on Warp?
Has anyone out there tried the new Align (yeah, sorry) 360mm 3G blades, since the Edge 353's seem to have disappeared from the market? The $24.99 price is tolerable, for one....

Align 360mm blades on Warp?
I have them on my x3 along with the rjx green as they are more visible. They both fly well.

Align 360mm blades on Warp?
Not quite on topic but I've got them on my mini protos and they are very good. They lean toward the quick side rather then the stable end of the spectrum, if that's your thing.
Visibility is okay, but in flight they are kind of gray, rather than black with white tips, which I prefer. I'm using them right now because nothing beats them at the price. I'd love some edge 353s though... Never tried and would really like to.

I just installed them on my Warp 360 but haven't had a chance to fly it yet due to weather. I'll report back when I have flown it.

I had them and flew them. Bit more bite than the stock and more visible. Cyclic response was about the same but they auto a little better. They make more noise as well - which is nice
Didn't notice a massive omg these are awesome difference but they were ok. I quite like the stock blades but hate the fact I can't see them. I've got some RJX Vectors on the way to try soon.

I tried them and didn't like them. They weigh more than the stock blades.
BTW on a hunch I bought some X3 blades and they appear to be identical, shape, size, and texture. They were about $10 cheaper than the Compass blades, about the same cost as the align. As for visibility I just add strips of Monokote to the blades, works great!

I haven't tried them yet ... but by far the best blades I've put on mine to date are the SpinBlade 3D 350s .... I have a set of SpinBlade Red Tip 350s and KBDD 350s to try at the next indoor dome flying session.

FWIW ...
If you like EDGE then get all the blades you can find now. It might be a while or never before you see them in production again. From what I understand, RH owned them. Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk |

Oh, … so based your photo, the actual design of the Align 360 3G blade is quite different from what the Align product shots and even the packaging suggest what the design looks like?
I had hopes that I could simply paint over the Align logo. |

The ones I got look like the box, so yes you can paint/cover the align logo off. I bet the ones not in the box are 325's.

What about those "Lynx" blades? Anybody tried them? I wish the manufacturers would also list the exact thickness of the blades in mm (down to a couple decimal points) ......

Re: Align 360mm blades on Warp?
Halo 360 seems interesting. No price yet.

Lynx blades are okay. A bit thick on the leading edge. Cant remember how heavy they were. They are okay from what I remember.
