Vario prop for K100TP?
I’m looking for a prop for a kingtech K100TP, and was thinking to use a Vario Prop system for it. You guys think it’s a good idea? Has anyone tried one? |
That’s a good system, but pretty expensive, on the Tucano a nice 3 blades would work the same....did you get the motor yet? I got a Skymaster 5 blades for my PC21 will be on the K100TP as well.... |
No turbine yet, but I’ll go with the K100TP for sure. The vario props are actually not that expensive. Actually less the the 5 blade from Skymaster and it’s adjustable. A 3 blade (which is what I’m looking for) is not much more then a normal fixed prop. A 5 Blade is around $350CAD, the skymaster 5 blade is $500CAD. So pretty decent price. |
Hello,did you get your K100TP? I am getting ready to do a Sbach342 with one of them. I am thinking about props too. have you tried a prop yet.
|
Just a reminder, if you are looking for a five-blade propeller for your Kingtech 100 tp, give Gerhard at Aircraft International a call. He may have the JC SuperProp 24x24 five-blade propeller in stock that sells for approximately $225-$250. I have been using the JC SuperProp 24x24 five-blade prop on my SM PC-21 for a while, and it is a good combination.

Unfortunately not yet. Ended up working on other planes this season. Hoping to order the engine sometime over the winter. |

I have run the Skymaster 24x23.5 five-blade and the JC SuperProp 24x24 five-blade props. IMO, I didn't notice much difference in the flight performance of my PC-21. So price was the only consideration for choosing the JC SuperProp over Skymaster propeller. The attached picture shows the JC SuperProp 24x24 five-blade and 24x24 four-blade props. Also have a JC SuperProp 24x24 three-blade prop that can't be used with the KT-100tp, so will soon list it in the Marketplace. |
David, I got my PC21 unbuild but from another fellow....with pretty much everything including the SM prop...so I will run that one for now, I was aware of JC prop but got no experience with them, if I ever need another one, I will certainly try those...he seem to make good stuff. Thank you for the info..
