I was looking last night. 4025-1100's appear to be getting harder to find.
This will need a 6mm shaft?

Hey Matt what size blades are you running? alot of people are talking about 600mm with a strech kit why not just go to a E6/7. SO my question is what size blades on the E5?

Thanks Kenny G

I'm sure Matt will answer but I think they're the new Rail 556's for mains and 96's for the tail. Please correct me if I'm wrong though.

Yes 550.00 for a base bare bones kit all the way up to 1,062 with battery, blades, ESC, RPM sensor. You can also do a custom kit and add in motor, turnbuckle kits for cyclic, and more. Ralph is a good guy at fblrotors and I highly recommend him. You won't be disappointed.

Thanks for info, I am really interested in such a kit as I already have all equipmemts !!
I know FBLrotors shop, I am a bit disappointed with their communication... I sent him a mail to buy rail blades and ship to Europe, I got an answer saying that he will answer me later and never received more news even after 2 or 3 more mails... But I hope that for an E5 communication will be easier. I am sure he is a great guy and for sure a busy man.. Anyway... Thanks for infos, I am in love with this E5....😃

In regards to communications with FBL Rotors Unlimited,  You are Correct in that Ralph is a very busy guy, He has a Very High Profile Job in the Aerospace Industry that requires him to be out of town Weeks at a time. When he does return home, You Know as well as I do the Demands there.. ;)    Now we get into the FBL ROTORS UNLIMITED, You can't imagine how much time Ralph spends trying to Grow this as well as Keep up with the every day demands.  and then there is the R&D of all these Specialty Tools He dreams up "When Ever He Sleeps" God know I don't know when,,,lol .  And the time with the machine shop making sure all the details are covered in his Brilliant Tools and accessories he comes up with..  I know it can be a little tough communicating, we talk at the Oddest times due to our Demanding Schedules going over new ideas as well as taking care of customers..  I know Europe is even harder based on the Time differences, small window.   Be patient. He is out of town again for a week.  If you need anything or have any questions, Please email me at  hwood3160@yahoo.com and I will fill in the gaps. Until then like the guys said . The Synergy Product Line and Customer service you receive here and with FBL Rotors Unlimited is well worth the weight... ;D

P.S.  If you find that your emails aren't answered right away, feel free to text him. This has worked great for me when it comes to quick follow ups during is Travels..


Best Regards,

Kevin

Thanks Kevin for your help.

The next two months are very busy and I am behind in my emails. Texting the number would be great as it will show up as the phone is on 24-7. I will answer right away. Leaving tomorrow for the EU F16 conference for the week, but I have a helper(son) who can ship out every day.

I assure it will get better.

HI Kevin

I fully understand that Ralph could be a busy man, like me, like everybody, he is a father too like me....but it's true that I am not the boss of an rc shop. Sorry if my mail appeared to be rude, it's not te feeling I wanted to share with you. My mails were sent 2-3 months ago by now...still without answers and that's why I am disappointed. If someone didn't answer my mail, no problem I send a new one but after 2, 3 still without answers, I changed my mind. 
That's not quite important as I managed to find rails blades in Europe, but FBLrotors is lucky enough to have more parts about synergy than everywhere else, so ordering at FBLrotors sounds good to me. I am not spiteful at all ( in France, most of the time, we are no good at all with mail answers..)and will order at his shop if possible in future with GREAT pleasure. I know that all MAtt Botos products are AWESOME.
Thanks for sharing with me your mail Kevin , I highly appreciate. But please, again, my criticism is not so bad, just see it as a constructive criticism to improve customers support.  :)

I fell on my face on this one.  Let me go back to the customer request items in the store and look for your request.

If you like, I can call you tomorrow at your number to make sure things are right for you.

Feedback is the way I can learn.  Thank you for this.

Ralph
