Can some one help me with some blade suggestions to use other than stock . Keep in mind these would be for a BEGINNER. He wants to buy the JR blade bolt aluminium spacers so he can try 12mm roots instead of 16mm.
Thanks

Some fiberglass 660 or 680mm blades like CMT should do okay. I don't fancy breaking $100/pair blades during the learning stage.

The stock woodies fly fine. But I recommend getting some SAB's there inexpensive and strong, and auto great.

Raptor 60 12mm blades

I purchased a set of SAB 670mm Glass 3D Blades from CyberHeli for 60 bucks... They are very nice blades. The root is 12mm w/4mm holes, so they are perfect for the Raptor 60 and the JR aluminum spacers.

The SAB's are a good value, a very stiff blade with a smooth finish and good balance and the do indeed auto well.

You really don't need these blades until you can fly in forward flight with confidence. Keep the woodies on until you're ready, no sense in wasting a good set of blades on hovering practice.

good luck!
