Speed Prop for 50cc
Has anyone run a 50cc for speed and if so, what prop? Would need to spin high. 18x18? 18x16? I've looked around and can't find any. APC, Bolly Mejzlik etc. Any ideas? Needs to have some pitch.

RE: Speed Prop for 50cc
There are very high pitch propellers used in the old military target RC planes. Check on Google with
maker/brand name MMeggitt, it is used on Banshee for very big engine. By the way, how can I upload

RE: Speed Prop for 50cc
Thanks you guys. I will check into this next week. Nikko, your photos are great. 40 pitch!!!! I'd figure a 15 or better pitch might get it there at 9 to 10 K like Ralph once stated. The AT6 prop is for an 80cc. At this point I'd like to get some hands on usage suggestions from someone that has done it with a 50cc. Piping the engine is no problem either. My idea is a like a very large hot liner.

RE: Speed Prop for 50cc
APC does have something for the G62's they race....you might need to drop Ralph's name or something to get em on the same page. For standard flying the G62 and good 50cc engines are spinning the same props, so it should be a good option. I just don't know if the 50cc options out there like the higher RPMs like the G62 does. Definitely keep us posted!!!
