    Just curious if anyone has tried the Cyclone blades. The shape of the blade is unique. It is tapered towards then end and has a variable foil shape that is supposed to provide high speed tracking and excellent 3d capability.

      They are the 695's and 105 tails.

      They look and feel really really good. I am particularly impressed with the tail blades, the geometry is awesome and the finish a little better than perfect. The swept tip on the main (and tails) is interesting. It doesn't really show on the photos but the swept tip is unusual. Like Rails taper near the end, these things get wider, the pic of the tail do not do them justice. Nicest looking blade I have ever owned. I'll report tomorrow. SOme very different design philosophies going into blade design at the moment.

      I flew them too, they seem great, track well, but I didn't go nuts, I'm still getting a feel for the evo, I will say they sound quite different to Halos, probably quieter, but different as well. They were very visible too, a quality I like in a blade. I'll given two thumbs up so far, later on it will probably be more....
