Default RE: Solo props????

ORIGINAL: oesterling

Hi

This is what my reduction unit looks like so far. I am building it for the c-arf p-51, and I am planning to fly with a 4 blade solo 30'' p-51 style, It won't be long before I am ready for a test run. I am curently producing the hub between the driven pulley and the prop.

Best Regards

Jan

What size is the motor? I'd be skeptical of it's ability to turn a 30" 4 blade prop... That takes A LOT of motor. I ran a 24" 3 blade on my G62 with prop drive.... Probably need twice the motor (or more) for 30" 4 blade set up.
