Key Features
- Complete Rotor Assembly Replacement — This spare includes the main rotor head block, spindle, dampers, and shims, providing everything necessary to replace the entire rotor assembly in one go rather than hunting down individual components separately.
- Genuine Blade Manufacturing — As an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part, this rotor head is produced to the exact same specifications and quality standards as the original component fitted to your Revolution 90 FP, guaranteeing perfect fitment and performance.
- Precision Damping System — The included dampers and damper shims work together to absorb vibration and harmonics from the rotor assembly, maintaining smooth flight characteristics and reducing stress on the helicopter's frame and electronics.
- Straightforward Installation — Blade has engineered this rotor head for hassle-free installation, allowing pilots to perform routine maintenance and component renewal without specialist tools or extensive technical knowledge.
- Restores Smooth Rotor Operation — Worn rotor heads introduce play, vibration, and inconsistent blade tracking that degrades flight performance, stability, and control response; this spare restores the original smooth, consistent operation your helicopter delivered when new.
- Durable Construction — Blade's reputation for quality engineering means this rotor head is built to withstand the demands of regular flying and maintenance cycles, providing reliable performance and long service life.
- Essential Maintenance Component — For RC helicopter enthusiasts who understand that preventative maintenance keeps models flying their best, this rotor head is a sensible spare to have on hand for when wear eventually requires renewal.
Technical Performance
The Blade Rotor Head: Revolution 90 FP is engineered with precision manufacturing to exacting tolerances that ensure perfect alignment and smooth rotation of the main rotor blades. The rotor head assembly is the mechanical heart of any RC helicopter, bearing the structural and aerodynamic loads generated during flight whilst maintaining precise blade tracking and pitch control. This spare component features a main rotor head block constructed to identical specifications as the original, coupled with a precision spindle that provides the pivot point for rotor blade operation. The included damper system — comprising two dampers and two damper shims — absorbs vibration and resonance frequencies that would otherwise transfer through the airframe, causing instability and premature wear of other components. The damping characteristic is critical to flight smoothness and control authority, particularly during aggressive manoeuvres or in gusty conditions where rotor loads vary rapidly. The mounting screw supplied ensures secure attachment to your helicopter's mast, with fastening torque appropriate to Blade's design specifications. Materials and construction methods are consistent with modern RC helicopter engineering, employing durable polymers and precision-machined metals that resist fatigue and wear. For pilots operating their Revolution 90 FP regularly — whether for weekend flying, training, or competitive flying — the periodic renewal of rotor head components is standard maintenance that preserves flight characteristics and extends the usable life of the entire helicopter.

Frequently Asked Questions
- When should I replace my Revolution 90 FP rotor head? — The rotor head should be inspected regularly for wear, damage, or excessive play. If you notice increased vibration, inconsistent blade tracking, sluggish control response, or visible damage to the rotor head block, it's time to fit this replacement. For helicopters that see regular flight activity, proactive replacement of the rotor head every 50-100 flight hours prevents performance degradation and minimises risk of mid-flight component failure.
- Is this a genuine Blade part? — Yes, the BLH01102 is the authentic OEM part number for the Revolution 90 FP rotor head, manufactured by Blade and designed to exacting factory specifications. Purchasing genuine OEM spares ensures compatibility, performance, and reliability compared to aftermarket alternatives of questionable quality.
- How difficult is the installation? — Installation is straightforward and falls within the capability of most RC helicopter enthusiasts with basic mechanical skills. The rotor head mounts directly to your helicopter's mast with the supplied mounting screw; no special tools are required. However, if you're unfamiliar with helicopter assembly, consulting your Revolution 90 FP manual or seeking guidance from experienced pilots is advisable to ensure correct installation.
- What is the difference between the dampers and damper shims? — The dampers absorb vibration and oscillation in the rotor assembly, whilst the damper shims are thin spacers that adjust the damping stiffness and allow fine-tuning of the rotor head's vibration response. Together, they ensure optimal flight smoothness and control authority specific to the Revolution 90 FP's design.
- Will this improve my helicopter's performance? — If your current rotor head is worn or damaged, replacing it with this genuine Blade spare will restore your helicopter to its factory performance level by eliminating vibration, improving blade tracking, and restoring responsive control. This is a maintenance replacement rather than an upgrade; it restores performance rather than enhancing it beyond the design specification.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This is a replacement part intended for existing Revolution 90 FP owners performing routine maintenance. Beginners should first ensure they have a complete Revolution 90 FP helicopter and are familiar with basic assembly procedures before attempting rotor head replacement; consulting experienced pilots or the manufacturer's guidance is recommended.
