Does anyone have any information about composite rotorheads?
Im having some trouble finding any information about it.
Like what´s better and worse with the composite rotor systems, compared to their metal counterparts..

Asking for info on composite rotorheads is opening a very large subject!
What are you looking for in particular?
There are composite rotorheads that are 'merely' replacing metal parts with composite equivalents, and there are rotorheads that are a complete, clean-paper design. They have some advantages over metal heads, and some disadvantages.
More specific questions would help narrow the range of possible answers!

Try the AS350 / 355 series, both have same/similar 'Plastic' M/R Head.
Very good too.
