NX vs Mejzlic
Hi,
I'm think of getting either a 23X8 NX or 23X8 Mejzlic prop for use on my ZDZ 50. Which is best in terms of outright thrust? Any info much appreciated. Thanks, Angus |

Get the Mejzlik.
The NX is noisy and doesn't make as much thrust. ORIGINAL: Angus B Hi, I'm think of getting either a 23X8 NX or 23X8 Mejzlic prop for use on my ZDZ 50. Which is best in terms of outright thrust? Any info much appreciated. Thanks, Angus |
RE: NX vs Mejzlic
Outright thrust--
static? the 32x8 size is good on a lighter model - I run the JAS-a wooden copy of the Mejslik also the 22x8 Mejzlik also the new Skorpa props -made by JAS to his specs. Using a decent exhaust -(Iuse the AMT pipe )power jumps way up to low 7000 range on the 23x8 and into the upper 7000 range on 22x8 props . The incowl mufflers will be considerably less. So thrust is not specific to a prop --it is the whole setup |
RE: NX vs Mejzlic
Its a pitts style muffler. Never heard of JAS props or Skorpa + I wouldn't even begin to know where to begin finding them in the UK. Im flying freestyle/3D with a Vision so although I want lots of static thrust I also need good thrust at speed. Figured you would be the guys to ask.
Im swaying more towards the Mejzlic because I know they are good props + as it's carbon the hub wont compress when you tighten it up. Angus ps im running Menz 22X8 at the moment and im getting 7500. |
RE: NX vs Mejzlic
Angus - JAS, is Czech-and is excellent , fine beech wood prop very close in profile with Mejzlic.
7500 on the 22x8 is good power on your muffler - I turn 7750 on tuned pipe. my setup is in an EF YAK- stunning performance at 15.25 lbs. Also -I am Team JR -since mid 1980's |
RE: NX vs Mejzlic
Thanks for the info Dick. I will look into the JAS props and see what I can find.
Ive been flying with JR since 2003. Got an offer I couldn't refuse so I switched from Futaba and never looked back :) Cheers, Angus |
