Does the new APC 8.8 x 9.25 prop, put more or less load on the motor.

Status: offline 		I think Geoff may be referring to a newer version of the 8.8x9.25, yes?? I heard that Fred may be making a thicker prop in efforts to control the stress he was seeing at the Winterfest. I've never seen them though, certainly haven't run them... so I can't answer your question Geoff.... My guess though, I'd say it probably induces a tad more load, possibly not noticable.

There is the 8.8 x 9.25 prop with the flat back on the hub, then there is the 8.8 x 9.25 prop with the raised shoulder around the outside of the hub, this prop is I believe a newer version, what I wanted to know is does this newer one have more or less load.

RB,

Yes. Geoff is referring it to the new 8.8x9.25. The new prop have a thicker hub than the older version in an attempt to solve the problem with the new Nelson LS broke one at the hub reasonly.
