mcx glow in the dark blades

[Mn Monster]

i got a set of glow in the dark blades, i put them on my Mcx and now it wont take off, it just hovers about 2 inches off the floor. if i put the stock black blades back on it fly's just fine? why would these blade cause it to not lift off?

How were they shipped? Were they smashed flat in a padded mailer? Could be they've been flattened out, and don't have enough pitch in them, or they never did when they were made and just have a defect. Have you weighed them vs. the stock blades? It's possible they're heavy enough to drop the head speed significantly, and you just don't have enough oomph now.

yes they were shipped, i put them next to the stock black blades, and they dont appear to have quite the same curve in the blade. which of course would effect lift. i'm sending them back and getting a different pair. as always thanks for the help !

Yep, that's probably it, not enough pitch most likely. No problem man, happy to help.
