Dear Raptor Customers:
The stock wood blades should be operated with a main rotorspeed of no more than 1700 RPM. For 3D aerobatics
or rotor speed more than 1700RPM, it is recommended to use carbon main rotor blades. The above drawing
illustrate how to rem ove the plastic blade grips and then carefully slice away some of the covering material, and
add the "thin" type CA glue to further strengthen the wood. After installing the plastic blade grips, apply epoxy
around the plastic grip and the wood to seal it off. This adds more strength and prevent oil from seeping through.
For beginners, the best rotorspeed is around 1550 RPM. For advanced fliers, a good hovering RPM is around
1550, and a constant 1800RPM in idle-up for 3D aerobatics.
