I have also posted this same posting on the Honeybee CP forum for reasons explained below:
I have what started life as a Twister CP V2. I have decided that its the same as an Esky CP2 or Honeybee CP2. Anyone know different?
Anyway, for the Twister a set of blades plus a tail rotor come to over £20 and I keep breaking them (usually needing epoxy repairs rather than replacement due to cost!).
I have just purchased on the auction site 3 pairs of carbon lookalike blades and 3 tail rotors for the Walkera 22E for £9.98 delivered.
These are a little longer but narrower than the Esky blades - proportionally in keeping with those on my T-Rex. I fitted them and it flies perfectly, better than with the old blades. The tail rotors need trimming by about 10mm each end with a pair of scissors, or they do on my setup to stop them hitting th.e ground
My heli is modded with a longer (and stronger) tail boom and fitted with twin motors but even with the standard boom there wouldn't be a collision between blades and rotor.
