RE: Variable Pitch Props??
Hiya,
I didnt mean to sound touchy. I have just had a lot of people telling me that what I have does not exist and that I dont realise what i have is not variable pitch. But it is. :-)
I wish they were still being made. There must be demand as many full size ships use this system.
Regards
Gavin

60mm is pretty large for a model boat. Is that the propeller diameter?
How big is the "contol hub"? I would like to see that much mechanism
jammed into about 3/8 inches.
I am pretty sure there is a really big hammer around here that could do that job.

Hi Again,
I have one 50 and one 60mm. The hub is approx 14 mm dia. One had the decaperm motor and reduction box, the bigger is going into a boat with a 4 cylinder 16 cc spark ignition engine.
