General Holographic stickers for blades

I remember when I bought my Trex 500, it came with some holographic "Align" stickers that I've heard are used on the blades for tracking. Is there a place that "simple" holographic stickers can be bought and used for helicopter blades? I'm thinking the holographic "shineyness" would help me see the rotor disk while in flight.

Thanks for that, Lee! It's a shame that they dont stock that tape at the US Warehouse. International only. Bummer, but still an option.

I got a bunch of various colors. I'll take a pic and post here. Let me know what you want and I'll send it along.

I doubt you will see it in flight. If you are wanting to use this on your black blades, just get some white tape. They have white electric tape that you can use. However, I would just tape off the blades and spray the tips white with regular old spray paint. Simple, cheap and effective.

The reflective stickers actually show up extremely well in flight. I picked up a bunch to try out (haven't yet) because a guy at my club field uses them and I love the look of them when they catch the light.

In the sun it give a very bright disc to orientate from.
