Technical Performance
The Blade Tail Boom represents precision engineering in composite materials designed specifically for the rigours of micro helicopter operation. The tail boom is a critical structural component that connects the main fuselage to the tail rotor assembly, bearing significant forces during flight, hovering, and manoeuvres. Blade's design philosophy emphasises durability balanced with lightweight construction, allowing the Infusion 120 to maintain its responsive handling characteristics whilst withstanding the stresses of regular operation. The material composition and dimensional accuracy ensure that these replacement booms integrate seamlessly with your existing helicopter's control systems, maintaining proper tail rotor alignment and pitch control authority. For pilots operating in the UK's variable weather conditions, these components have proven reliable across different environmental scenarios, from indoor hall flying to outdoor field operations. The engineering reflects Blade's extensive experience in designing micro helicopters that balance performance with practical durability, making these spares suitable replacements that restore your aircraft to factory specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these genuine Blade parts or aftermarket replacements? — These are genuine Blade OEM spare parts, which means they are the exact same components Blade uses when manufacturing new Infusion 120 helicopters. This guarantees perfect fitment, proper material properties, and long-term reliability that you simply cannot rely upon with third-party alternatives.
- Will these tail booms fit my Blade Infusion 120 helicopter? — Yes, these components are specifically designed and tested for compatibility with the Blade Infusion 120 helicopter platform. They will fit directly without any modification or adjustment needed, restoring your aircraft to factory specifications.
- Why buy a pair instead of just one replacement boom? — Purchasing the pair gives you excellent value and ensures you always have a spare ready in your pit box. If you damage the first replacement boom, you won't need to order again, meaning less downtime between your flying sessions and more time enjoying your RC helicopter.
- How do I know when I need to replace my tail boom? — You should inspect your tail boom regularly for visible cracks, splits, or damage that might affect the structural integrity of your aircraft. Additionally, if you experience a crash or hard landing, it's wise to examine the tail boom carefully, and if damage is visible, replacement is the safest option to maintain proper tail rotor control.
- Is this suitable for beginner helicopter pilots? — Yes, absolutely. Whether you're just starting your RC helicopter journey or you're an experienced pilot, maintaining your equipment with genuine spare parts is essential practice. Beginners particularly benefit from having spares on hand because learning to fly helicopters often involves some inevitable crashes during the skill development phase.
- What is the difference between genuine Blade booms and cheaper alternatives? — Genuine Blade OEM parts are manufactured to the exact same specifications as the original components, ensuring proper weight distribution, structural integrity, and precise fitment. Cheaper alternatives may vary in dimensions, material properties, or balance, potentially compromising flight performance, control precision, or longevity. Genuine parts provide confidence and reliability that justifies the investment.
