Default RE: DLE 35RA going to 3 blade prop


ORIGINAL: airraptor

The beila 18x10 is a very heavy load for the DLE 30. I could only get 4,400-4,500 on it with a bowman ring.

MTK the 33 may be strong but it drag it down a bunch also. The Beila is = to a XOAR 20x10 laminated prop or so I have been told.

So even though the prop is larger more blades, the much lower rpm just makes the plane unflyable. So I should not hold out hope in the 18x10 3 blade semi scale prop working on my hellcat?
