[NSRCA-discussion] New APC CF Props

[kvelez at rochester.rr.com]

The difference is not the material but the construction. They are both carbon one is hollow and made with cloth made from carbon fiber, lighter. The other one is solid and made with carbon fiber not the cloth type. They are different applications one for glow one is for electric motors. Althoug the hollow construction can be used for glow / gas but is heavier than the electric version.

Subject: Re: [NSRCA-discussion] New APC CF Props Jon C flew with one during practice in Orange County a week ago.  They aren't exactly carbon fiber, just using carbon instead of glass fiber, lighter than an APC, heavier than a true carbon prop.

They are certainly less expensive than the Falcon CF props.  Sent from my HTC One on the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network
