One day I was angry because I wasn't getting any tail power on my HawkSE so I bought these enormous blades thinking that if these didn't give me tail power nothing would... Finally I found what was wrong and since I've got good tail power with the standard blades.

So I've got these massive good looking 105mm carbon tail blades and I'm wonderning if I could use them on the Swift 620SE (it's bigger than the HawkSE).

Would you say they're too big?

Too big and you would need CNC tail grips also......Ron

I am swinging 105 mm tail blades on my Razor (stretched to swing 720 mm mains) with no problem. Course it is geared down some what for the larger mains, so the tail blades are at a lower speed.

^^^But the 620 has a shorter boom and swinging 620s. A little too close IMO.......Ron

I agree, my boom is stretched and has higher landing struts so tail rotor can clear the ground.
