Title: EVO 3-BLADE PROPS' ?
Post by: Robin_Holden on October 22, 2010, 12:58:20 AM

Hi fellas from a warm Montignac le Coq in S.W.France [ strike bound ! ].

Ages ago I bought some Evo 3-Blade props' off the 'Bay'.They are not marked but would appear to be 10x4 approx.

Has anyone used them with any success ?

I've not tried them yet , but would appreciate any contributions.

Regards as ever ,

Robin.

 They are a 10x4. I tried one once on a Twister size plane with an LA .40. It spun and ran real well, but the plane had no airspeed. I took it off after just a few flights.

I agree with Wayne, It looks good,but underperforms.

They are listed as a 10.5X4.5 on their web site.

That's funny LL~ but yah know what? I ordered one to try on a high revving piped OS 32 F, I use a 11/4 right now and launch at 10,200 rpm this might be a better rpm range for this prop I won't know until spring but wish me luck...lol n~

Hi Robin,

I was told it was a trainer prop,  designed for the Hanger-9 R/C trainers, and the C/L  PT-19.  It was not designed for serious stunt use.  The Master Airscrews 3-blades (10x5, 10x7) in the other hand will work much better. H^^
