Adjustable prop experience?
Well, I have a Fred Serba 68 x 68 which is probably a reasonable
compromise between climb and cruise. Not very heavy either. But to really get her going fast, more pitch drill sergent! Richard Don Lewis wrote: So my question is - anybody here have any first hand experience with this kind of set up? What engine / prop combinations work well? ANd what didn't? Warp? Ivo? who else? Check with Ray hegy, Marfa, TX.... He might be able to provide you with a "scimitar" (SP?) prop that acts like a two position prop...I think I remember one on his little red biplane he used to wake us with every morning at dawn at the old Rockford,Ill. flyins..... I think Steve Whitman use one on the buttercup and/or one of his early tailwinds... I think this phone no. is still good.....Call Ray Hegy Propellers (915-729-4249) Don Lewis n FTW |
