Three Blade Info

[Bob Pastorello]

Just in case anyone is interested.  Some data.  Brian Young was practicing with me today, and we were playing with props.  His Impact on the YS 1.60 with 17 x 12 was supersonic.  Put on the three blade 16 x 11 GRS prop, and BIG improvements in speed and power management.  Much easier to work with.

On my Arresti, we put the Master Airscrew 16 x 10 on my OS 1.60.... Cool Power 15%, Aeroslave pipe.... needle at one turn +2 clicks open, good smoke in verticals.... PLENTY of punch in P05 upline snap... but the real win with this prop is the dynamic braking.  It REALLY slowed donw the airplane.  Made the Double Immelman really look easy, being able to slow up the back sides....
    Oh - yeah - tached 8580.  And wasn't overly-noisy.  In the air, sort of a buzz, but nothing like a Bolly would be.  Lots of punch.

Thanks to Xavier, who recommended the $18 prop to try!!!!   It SURE works....
