Anyone know if the JXF props sold by Valley View are any good. All thats available at my LHS is Zinger and I want to try something new. And the front prop wahser that comes with the engine can be used as the drill guide can it not?
Thanks, Shane
JXF props are good but wood compresses a lot after tightening the prop bolts. The Xoar seem better to me. Maybe a little harder wood.
You can use the prop washer as a template...not a drill guide. You'll just end up cutting the soft aluminum washer with the drill. Just slip the prop on the shaft...then put the prop washer on and use it to mark your holes. Then drill on a drill press. Works fine if you are very precise at marking holes and drilling.
