My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Yeh! got my hands on some new style Vblades , 710s compared to the 690s old ones . these 710s weigh in at 173 g. man thay should 3D real well . also that lite and lower HS might boom strike a heli thats on the piggy side. so up the RPMs with these. I will test them out soon as the weather breaks
few things I noticed with the new style, the blade grip area is like Sabs now. CG cord wise seams way different like the older Vblades was more weight in the front of the blade , and by feel the symmetrical feels thinner.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Finish looks nice Tony, very different CF weave to I see. Curious the CG now on the newer ones, is it more to the tip or to the bolt hole?

...Once upon a time there were Nitros, flybars and frequency pins...

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		hey, the weave is close nit and the CG seams more balanced between the blade bolt instead of nose heavy, cant wait to try them out, weather here in Alaska aint to good this time of the year, rainy and high winds

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		So closer to the bolt then? Hmm that's usually not as good for flybarless but then again alot of other factors, be interested in hearing how they work for sure as they do look like a decent finish and they did change a few things for sure.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Hey, looks good! I was fortunate enough to get a set of the new 710's last summer that I flew on my Stratus for about a year before selling everything to a friend. They definitely fly great and I'm sure anyone who gives them a try will be ecstatic.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Hey. These 710s. Rock. Compared to my older vs the performance is 10 to 15% better in acting. With my 12 s 40 C TPs trex 700, and the 4030-2.5 y xera, she's ready to pull stumps. I'm happy with these.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		copter nut, yeah these are the new extreme series blades, vic just hasn't put the extreme labels on them yet, I guess because they are pre release.

are you say they act better than your old V's or track better than your older V's?

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		yeh! they have the good ole back in the day Vblade sound. I sure like that. as far as the action goes , yes, one of the reasons why is they are lite, I call lite Vblades HC blades, when he use to fly them, he asked for lite. these are lighter than the 690s he use to make

When and where?

Where is simple. V-Blade announced that Experience RC in North America, and Fast Lad Performance in Europe and Asia are the exclusive distributors. So you can expect to see the new blades in stock there first, then trickle down to the other dealers.
