Default Carbon Express Maxima best fletch?

I was just wondering what the best fletching would be to get on my carbon express maxima arrows. My fletchings on them now are starting to get pretty wrinkled. If possible could you guys tell me the speccs on the 2 inch blazer vanes as opposed to 4 inch feathers or other 4 inch fletchings, like does one make the arrow faster or give more KE or what. Sorry for the questions, I just don't know much about fletchings at the moment. I am shooting a limb driver arrow rest if that helps or not.

Thanks,
-Joe

ask in the tech forum. or search a little bit over there. i have maximas and am about to fletch up some blazers myself for the first time. some love feathers w/tape. others like rob/pa has a few diff. setups for hunt/3d. also depends on use.

Joe, I'm a feathers guy myself. You really can't beat the control they give an arrow, and the light weight helps improve FOC.

i haveused the CX maximas with a 2" blazer for 3 years in a row now and have no desire to change. blazers are durable, fly great and very easy to fletch (especially with an arizona e-z fletch)
