Went flying today at Tacoma Narrows Muni. Airport. Pete Ferguson was there with a newly repaired Profile CardinARF. In place of the Brodak .40 (now in his kit built Vector 40) was a .40LA. We ran it once and as it held a setting nicely, #2 was in the air, with a Thunder Tiger Cyclone 11x4.5. Worked sweet! At least give it a try...
Pete started out with a Randy Aero tongue muffler, but the model needed a tad of nose weight. Before he could bolt on the stock OS muffler, I pulled out a new Randy Aero tube muffler...sounded great, decently quiet, ran good, and it was just the right CG change needed....very noticeable on glide & landing. Pay attention to the glide!

Anyway, the Cyclone 11x4.5 is a real good prop for: Brodak .40, Magnum XLS .36, and OS .40LA. Maybe for a Thunder Tiger Pro .36 or GP .40/.42??? Anybody use it on other engines with good results?  Steve

Greetings,
Where is the best place to get this Thunder Tiger Cyclone 11x4.5 prop? Thanks.

I've had good stunt runs on LA 40s with APC 10-4.

A couple of weeks ago, we were back at Tacoma Narrows Airport. Dane Covey was flying his PathfinderARF with a .46LA, and complained about the speed...too fast a lap time. Before I could say anything, Pete F. had a whole bag of TT Cyclone 11-4.5's out of his big Chebby van and had Dane attach it to the .46.  I wanted to see how it worked, so kept zipped for a change. It worked great! I don't recall the launch rpm, but somewhere around 10k+/- should be a good starting point.

These are really great props! The 12.5 x 5.5 is also a great prop for ST G.51 and Magnum XL .53. They'd be worth trying on ST .60's, 2Star .60's, Stalker .51's and .61's, etc. If you're a fan of APC's (I am!), you'll be impressed with the TT's when you check the balance and performance.    Steve
