Air Wild is the distribtor of NX propellers. So far that's the only place I've been able to obtain them.

Well, I have been reading the info from the manufacturer's web sites. Granted they are somewhat biased to make themselves seem the best. But so far i like what Xoar has to offer the best. I guess the best thing to do would be to buy a variety of props and see what works best for my needs.

...that is exactly right! No matter what any of us tell you, you have your own perception that may differ. And the only way a true modeler is going to nail down their favorites, is by diving in head first like you commented on. Good luck, and post your results and opinions as you do your own testing!

To offer my own thoughts on the topic, of the following props I have played with...MSC, 3W, Xoar, APC, Mejzlik, Biela, Bambula, Menz and NX...on 26-100cc engines, I always land on NX for my favorite performing wood prop, and Mejzlik for my favorite Carbon prop. In my applications there appears to be very little performance difference between the two.

Keep in mind that several of the common wood props come out of the same Chinese factory and appear to be identical except for the painted logo on them. I know these are the same and I'm sure others can be added to the list ......

Xoar
Wild Hare
Bolly
Horizon Evolution
