Title: Best Eather 3-blade for PA40UL?
Post by: Mike Scholtes on July 29, 2016, 12:19:56 PM
Going to order some props from Brian Eather. What would be the best of his 3-blade props for a PA40UL on pipe in an Oriental Plus with 605 area? Brian's current offerings in 11 inch diameter have 5.75 pitch, which seems like a lot for this setup, but I don't have any experience with his props. 12 inch props are available in 3.75 but that seems like a lot of diameter for this setup.

The Best Prop I found is the Bolly 11 x 4 N 3 bld
2nd best Magic  12 x 4 n 3 bladcut to 11
3rd  Bill  LEE  thin 11 x 4 3 blade
Bolly 11.25 x 4 N 2 blade
Any Eather  11 x 4 N 3 blade that is close to the ones above

I know these are somewhat hard to find,, another  that works well  is the Werwage 10.6 x 4.9 wide U/C  2 blade
