Hi guys. Any update on which is the better size of 3 blade prop? Am wanting to try either the falcon 19.5x13 or 19x13.5. Any tried both sizes and can tell me the difference in performance? Thanks

I have the Falcon 20X12.5 3 blade on my new Caelus V2 Lite. Waiting for the bad weather to clear to maiden the plane.

Please keep me posted especially on the speed of thar prop. Thanks

Zippi...did you maiden the Caelus yet? I have a Falcon 19.5X13 on order. I did try a Falcon 19x13.5 this past Wednesday, and I liked it. Nice speed control, especially on the down lines. Prop had a much nicer sound than the PT 22x12 I have on there now. The static max amps were at 93...so I will have to watch my throttle or drop the end point to a safe point. Keep us posted.

I went out last weekend for the maiden and had an electrical problem. Ended up being a bad aileron servo extension. Never got a flight in. I'm heading out in the morning for the maiden once again.

I was at a contest a few weeks ago and a gentleman had one on his Prolog. It flew extremely well and was so slow on the down lines. I was super impressed.

The Falcon 19.5 x 13 came today from Mike. Will give it a go on my Caelus at the D6 contest this weekend.

Hi guys,

I'm interested in trying a 3B prop and the 19.5x13 sounds like a good option but I have one small problem that is holding me back. I fly a Krill spark dynamic and I'm finding it hard to source a 3B spinner that will fit my plane. Its 65mm in diameter and 45mm long. If anyone knows where I can find one can you please let me know? Thanks.

Could probably get this cut to suit your prop.

Or this cut to suit a 3 blade.

Thanks I totally forget about TruTurn, I was only researching composite spinners. However, a nice little alloy spinner would look good on my Spark.

They will custom cut slots to suit any prop as well.

Hey Ben,

Would you believe I have a spare uncut Spark spinner?



Cheers,
Jason.

Hi Jason,

Wound you fancy selling it?

How does $50 + postage sound?

Has anyone compared a falcon 20x12.5 to the 19.5x13, with a pletty advance motor?

Thanks
Tony

Sounds alright to me, I'll get in touch with you later today. Thanks Jason.

So I’ve finally managed to get a three blade prop and I have put around fifty flights on it now. I’m using a Falcon 19.5x13 V2 and so far I love it! I was originally using a Falcon 21.5x13.5 and it was good but I was having trouble trying to achieve a constant downline speed. With the 3B I found it much easier to manage the downline speed. In fact I probably need to adjust the ESC brake and reduce it a little.

Battery consumption has gone up a little by around 200mAh. For the Australian Expert sequence (Advanced A-16), I use between 2800-2900mAh. In windy conditions maybe a little more. Another interesting note about the 3B is the noise or lack of. I thought the two blade was quiet this has taken it to another level.
