 "I've flown many blades but my choice is the Radix because they track excellent in high speed and 3d maneuvers with great hang time during autos. As far as the Rave, the 3s or 4s setup Radix 350's make this little heli fly stable but quick. The Rave, with low parts count, easy assembly and an excellent TT system, is by far the best 450 I've built and flown. A lot of thought went into the design of the Rave and it shows. The Total-G on the ENV is by far my favorite heli to fly and tracks great. The MP7 allows the HZ-R to be smooth and powerful. CYE has the best support in the hobby and has advanced the hobby tremendously over the years. I'm proud to be on the CY Team! If you have questions, I'd be glad to help!"

 "From the first day I flew a heli, I chose CY products. The Solid G makes setup a lot easier; Radix blades are very smooth and precise, especially in hard 3D; and the Muscle Pipe improves power significantly."

 First I started to fly with Radix blades is to test the Flybarless helicopter. I originally know that the Radix blades has nice performance. Actualy I try to use Radix FBL Blades, I believed that Radix is the best FBL blades for my flight. Especially the cyclic contorl speed is not so hard and in the auto, blades could get air well !!

 " I've been flying Radix since 2006 and couldn't find any type of blade better than it, Radix tracks awesome, gives you fast collective response, fast cyclic rate and extremly good autos. Same with the tail blades, you feel the difference the moment you put them on your helis, much better tail authority. The MP5 mufflers match each need of every 3D pilot, good power on full and mid range bands, smoother engine, consistent power and fantastic sound! About the Rave 450...its just much better than any other heli in this class. "

 "I fly Radix blades and tail blades because they are the best blades available on the market and they match my style of flying really well. Radix are a perfect fit for 3D and are really great for autos. The Radix FAI blades helped me a lot to get the speed-record at 266 km/h (165 mph) with my Henseleit TDR. I have flown for many years now with Henseleit helicopters and Radix blades are the perfect addition for these helicopters. We also only use Radix blades at my heli school, rc-helischule.ch, which i have had since 2005. I'm proud to be a part of the CY Team."

 "I've flown lots of blades over the years and none have been able to match the Radix line. They track straight, don't load the head as much during aggressive cyclic maneuvers, and the autos have tons of hang time. On top of that, Radix blades are very consistent from set to set and are always perfectly finished and balanced. There is no doubt in my mind that these blades have helped me take my flying to the next level!"

  I have been flying R/C heli since 1998. I enjoy attending event all over the country. I am very excited to be a part of Team CYE. Curtis has introduced several innovative and high-performing products to the industry over the past few years and I can only imagine what coming next. My experience with Youngblood products has been nothing short of spectacular, and I am currently using Radix blades,the Solid G,the ATG, and the MP5. I am fortunate to be sponsored by several manufacturers and I am looking forward to representing Curtis’s product offering

 "There is nothing like trusting your equipment when you're working hard and getting better. You spend lots of money and you deserve high quality components to keep you going flight after flight and after 6 years years of flying RC Helicopters, This last year has been the first year where I've had no problems with my equipment. The Solid G holds the tail extremely consistent through all pirouetting maneuvers and smooth transition on rudder reversals. the tail hold extremely well in all flight orientations and your imaginations can run wild. The Blades are great in both High speed flight and smack down. Matt Botos flies very high speed and Lucas Riva puts it on the deck as low as it gets so as you can see, the Radix blades have covered both areas of flying style. The ATG3 is a great governor and hold rmp solid and of course it is designed for both nitro and electric. I also fly the mufflers. I hear people and different choices of pipe that work better with different motors. I've been running the MP5 on my 50 and 90 and I have to say that my heli holds up to any of the best machines you've seen fly. Good luck with the hobby and I hope to be able to assist anyone in need of a little help."

 "Having known Curtis for many years I knew he expected the best from his equipment. When he brought out his own range of products I knew that they would stand out from the crowd. And they haven't disappointed. From the exhausts through the electronics to the blades. Each item has performed and never let me down. They are consistent and dependable which is paramount when competing. Above all their results speak for themselves."

 I have flown helicopters since 2002, and have always been fascinated by the Bell-Hiller rotor head. Optimising the head characteristics for any specific style is just plain interesting to me. Radix offers a very complete range of blades which allow you to do just that, without compromising on your personal preferences. The fact that all paddles are delivered with flybar weights only adds to the flexibility and seriousness of these products. Are you looking for the crazy 3D set-up, or the super smooth F3C, you can get it with Radix. I tested many setups, and in all cases I found the products reliability to be high end, plug and play and with beautiful visual finish. Radix is without a doubt, a serious blade choice.

 "I use Radix blades because of their consistency in quality, and they are very precise, I can fly aggressive and smooth with them which is great for different flying styles. Muscle pipe 5 gives good consistent power, easy to tune and gives the maximum performace to my engine. Excellent for hard 3D flying."

The blades are very efficient and precise and the electronic is simply on the top, all with the best quality ! I have tried many other brand of blades and gyros but they never come to the CYE products level. That's why I am very proud to be in this Team today and support CYE. "

 I started flying CY Radix blades in 2006 and still havent had one bad set. The finish is awesome, they look cool and they preform great without boggin the engine, they also tracks great in big manouvers. Combine the Radix blades and the Superstubz paddles you get a fast cyclic rate aswell as a heli that feels locked in whatever manouver you do. I alos use the Solid G and Mini G gyros on my helis with good results on my 90 aswell as my 50 size heli. I am happy to be a part of Team CYE and represent the great products they have and will come out with in the future...

 "If you want the best blades in the business, then buy Radix. Hands down, you won’t find a better blade. They fly great, auto great, and are very efficient. You can use the extra power for that next wild 3D maneuver. If you fly an electric and have always wanted a constant head speed, but the ESC wasn’t up to the task, then you need to pick up an ATG V3. This gov holds RPM very well and is the only one I’ve found that works with electrics. Mount the magnet on the auto hub, dial in a 1:1 gear ratio, set the speed and go fly. You won’t complain about inconsistent head speed any more. It works great on nitro machines as well!"

 " I fly Curtis's products simply because they are the best. The Radix blades are the quietest and most responsive blade i have flown, and, together with the superstubz paddles provide the ultimate in 3D performance. Curtis is always looking to bring the most innovative and quality product to market, and with the awesome customer service from the Youngblood team, the choice clear"

 "I started flying RC about 40 years ago, having successfully competed in pattern, scale, soaring, pylon, and have been flying helicopters for a little over 20 years. I won the US Nationals in Class 2 helicopter in 1994 and have progressed along through Class 3 and am now flying FAI finishing as high as 4th in the US. I currently am the second alternate on the US F3C World Team. I have been using Radix FAI main blades and tail rotor blades on my contest machines since they came out and have amazing success with them. I also use the Radix SBs on my sport flying model, I really love their quality and performance of the Radix line."

 I fly CY products because I want to fly the best. The blades and paddles are a perfect blend of smoothness, precision, and aggressiveness, and the autos are second to none. I use the MP5 on my YS .91 SR engine, and it makes amazing power that stays very consistent. I have flown many 450 size models, and for my style of 3D the Rave is perfect. It flies just like my larger helis and the design is amazing. The mini-G has amazing constistency and holding power on any size heli. I am very proud to be a member of Curtis Youngblood Enterprises, and would be happy to help anyone that I can

 I have been addicted to RC Helicopters since 2003 and using Curtis Youngblood products and Radix blades since they were first available. Knowing that Curtis would only put his name on products that will stand up to the increasing abuse of today's 3D flying styles pushed me towards his products. I am a firm believer a model should be set-up for optimum performance so nothing holds you back from advancing in the hobby. The versatility in Youngblood products is outstanding, different blade and paddle combinations allow any pilot to fine tune and find that exact feel everyone is always searching for. The power of the muscle pipes, coupled with the ATG, make a very powerful and consistent setup on nitros. Due to its simple setup, the Mini-G is one of the best gyros available, no matter what size helicopter its on. I attend many fun flys and events throughout the year. I am always approachable and will help you find an answer to any question regarding products or setup.

 I am 16 years old and have been flying helicopters for 9 years, I enjoy traveling to different events throughout the year and meeting people that enjoy flying. I am honored to represent CY products, because they are the best in quality and design right down to the packaging. The electronics are high performance and light weight which is very important to me, and are simple to set-up. Radix blades work so well for my flying style fast and aggressive or fast and smooth, the tail blades are perfect from one set to the next, which is rare with other brands. The Rave is another example of CY engineering and testing, you wont find a better flying 450 on the market, it flies like a 90 size!

 I have been Flying helis for 4 years now. I love how hard the Radix blades pop and the hang time in an auto. I feel that running the Radix blades on my heli allows me to push harder without bogging the head or wearing out the dampers.

 Hi my name is Paul Andreoli, I have been flying rc helicopters for about two years now. I have flown other helicopters before but the ENV is by far the best, it is the perfect balance between smooth and aggressive. I have also used other blades before and I find that Radix is the best blade I have ever used, they auto awesome, and gives my flying style a crisp and confident feeling when doing 3D.

  I started flying heli's about 7 years ago. I started using Radix blades for sport flying which I found gave me great performance. The FAI Radix are great in the calm and windy conditions and I have not found another blade that comes close to the performance of Radix for autos. I flew the Rave ENV in the 2011 F3C season which I find is easy to setup with it's low part count and fantastic manual.
