They are terrific. I ordered one on the recommendation of a friend and was somewhat skeptical when I saw it. Fairly wide blade and not the shape I was accustomed to seeing. I was pleasantly surprised at the performance from a blade that wide and it was quiet when compared to other props which is what I was after.

I'm using a 28x10 on a zdz 120. Awesome! Pulls like a tractor very quiet, the best prop I have found for my combo. I'm sure they are expensive, found this un at the last swap meet for $20.
Let us know where you find em and how much $.

That is good to here. I orderd a 17 x 10 3-blade for my 3W-35 today. Can't wait to run it. I bought it from Aircraft International. Gerhard is very helpful and seems knowledgable on everything he sells. They have a complete line of Fuchs props.

They're not cheap but no composite blades is. I believe the last 28X10 I bought was around $80 and a 3 blade 25X12 was almost $140. I've been doing this a long time and big stuff used to be a .60 size airplane and a good 12X8 wood prop was $1.00. We used to kid each other about our $1.00 landings when we tipped one up on its' nose and busted a prop. How times change, $140 landings are harder to laugh at.

Are fuchs their true length, like actually 27" when they say 27?
Also, I see a 27x11 offered, but not a 27x10, anyone know if they make a 10?
Thanks
