I think that kit comes with 475mm wood blades included. I personally don't really care for woodies, but that is just my choice. Like Steve posted, if it comes with the 522XL belt, it is for blades up to 500mm. There are 3 tail conversion "kits" for the 425/550 that come with the tail boom, tail control rod and belt, but no blades, for $16.95. G-204664 comes with the short boom and control rod and 470XL belt, and is for blades up to 430mm. G-204662 comes with medium sized boom and control rod, and 522XL belt, for blades up to 500mm. G-204663 comes with long boom and control rod, and 575XL belt for blades up to 550mm. They are all listed on this page in the following link. Note; the long boom kit has the belt incorrectly listed as "572" at AlleRC. It should say "575"... www.allerc.com/index.php?cPath=24_118_119

If AlleRC is out of stock on the items you need, you can always use: www.rcdumbthumbs.com I've used them and they're a great supplier! Scott

I got the majority of my Gaui stuff including my 425 from RC Dumb Thumbs, whatever they didnt have I got from HeliDirect.

I too have have done business with RCDumbThumbs and their service was great, just like the service at AlleRC. The main reason that I usually link to AlleRC is simply because I am more familiar with their site.

I really hate to revive this post but Im still unsure if the conversion kit that I purchased stretches my y 425 to a 500 or 550. I really would hate to sound stupid stating for a fact what Im unsure about thanks in advance. I bought the G-204579 kit.

Since it comes with the 522XL belt, it also has to come with the middle sized tail boom which is made to run blades up to 500mm.
