[NSRCA-discussion] APC 18.1 x 10W props

 I am using the 18.1x10W trimmed and shaped 1/4 inch and it pulls like a horse in verticals.The downlines are slower than with a 16.5x12W.
I have not tached it,so can't help here. But I am guessing 81-8200. I have not tried the 18.1x10,normal blade, but a friend is using one and likes it

  I recently purchased some 18.1 x 10W APC props for my DZ160. Apparently there appears to be another version 18.1 x 10.1.

   

  Could someone please tell me the difference between both?

   

  I tried a quick ground run on this prop (stock) this morning but could barely get 8000 RPM from the engine. I will take advice from a member on this list and lop 1/4inch of each blade. What RPM readings are people getting who are using either of these props on a YS DZ160 engine?

   

   

  Regards,

   

  Peter
