Tony, The most suitable 3 blade prop for the 80RV is a Fuchs 24x12, 24x13 or even an AirModels 25x12 works very well. Aircraft International in NJ has Fuchs carbon 3 bladers for sale/.
Thanks,

Default ZDZ Three Blade Props

If need smaller three blade. Have two 80's on P-38. Using Mezjlik
(Sp?) at 23x14n. Fox also handles these.
Plan on 6200 rpm on the test stand and unbelievable thrust!!
The two engines bounce around each other 100 rpm.
You would not believe the sound!!!!!!!
Good Luck,
Twinman

Default P-38

The pictures are on rcwarbirds.com in the twinman section or the pictures of the fighters and P-38 section.
I do not recommend to do this. It is a Yellow P-38 and this is dangerously over powered. I wanted scale props and these engines can do this. The wings, nacelles, other areas are drasically reinforced and never use full power.......well almost never...Tee Hee.
