Which prop??
I'm looking for prop info for a O.S. 46 rf df with a Bolly CF pipe.
This setup is going in my new DD that has been thined 20% and clipped 2 1/2 inch's. I have run APC props in the passed on other DD but can get only one flight with them ( after 1 flight the prop is bent forward at the tips.) I'm looking at the Bolly CF props but the only one that I can find is a 10.5x8.5 I thinking of using one cut down. What do you all think? Thanks Scott Yeo |
9x7
I've run that set up and I didn't like the bolly too well. The pipe
that makes the eng wake up is the OS pipe. Didn't look like it would with the baffels and all but it really comes on. Dub Jett designed that one for OS. Too bad it's out of production. For props, the search is on. The best speeds on that combo where a Rev-up 9X7 reworked to a eagle type airfoil. Cast a couple carbon 9X7 Rev-up copies but they didn't do quite as well and the mold is long gone. You can try all the higher pitch props but none of them would come on for me. About the max pitch is 7 3/4 in good air. |

Thanks Scott Yeo I have never seen a prop that is bent forward at the tips from flying. What is wrong with the 7.4" CF Q40 props from APC? Are those the ones that bent forward? I think cutting down a 10.5 prop that much is a bad idea. |
