might work but since your a noob NO. they are shorter which would make the heli too quick and they are much lighter wouldnt hold up at the kings highe headspeed.

I second that Tryan !! I did however try carbon fiber blades made for a CP2 (Blade cp's better cousin) and they do work, head speed is even higher, the lift is not as good, the cyclic responce is almost to quick. But the stock woodies from a Blade CP, wouldn't even try it and I love to experiment. The King 2 stock woodies are made of what I think is poplar or some similar wood that is harder and stronger than balsa. The overly priced Blade CP blades are mostly Balsa wood, light but not all that strong. I think something "Terrible"" might happen if you try it, I know it's tempting cause you probably have a pair or two laying around but the KING 2 blades are only 10. Freakin dollars or less

How poplar are your blades? Mine are pretty poplar but most people upgrade to CF I dont know how they could be poplar.

Not the poplar opinion just my 2 cents.

Poplar = wood - poplar is popular - wood is Good-- CF = better

thanx for the replys. ive been making most of my own blades and ill probly continue to make copies for the king. ive noticed the balsa is great for improving the cyclic reponce on my cp.

If you actuaaly take the time to make woodies you should read up on CF blades they are not hard to build cloth and glue.
