To RC enthusists, are carbon fiber blades for a …?

Are carbon fiber blades for a rc helicopter delicate and easy to break? Another question, does anyone know a good training simulator you can buy online that is really good? thanx, please rc people only.

The carbon fiber blades are lighter and a bit stronger than the normal wood ones youd use, assuming you are flying the smaller helicopters. The thing is about carbon fiber blades is that if you strike them, they wont crack or bend as easily as the wooden ones. Howeverm they are delicate like every other blade because they spin at high speeds. Just be sure to cut off the motor right when youre about to crash and the blades will be preserved and last long.

As for the simulator, the best to buy online in my opinion is the ClearView Flight Simulator. I bought it, and it is just amazing. I hope you have the controller for it though. Cause flying with the keyboard just isnt the same.

Are RC Helicopter Remotes interchangeable ?

    i have used and liked the realflight series, but with the most recent ones make sure you have a computer that will run it. you can download a demo of realflight g4 at their site… i dont have too much experience with helicopters and none at all with carbon fiber blades so i cant answer other part but what i know from carbon fiber in general is it is very strong, stronger than wood in propellers
