RE: nx props, any good and where to get at ?
Hehehe, thanks Pat.
I ordered me a 20x10 as well as a 21x8 NX.I know I will just have to bolt them on and tach them to find out , but which one do you guess is going to give me better speed? Its going on a Brillelli 46, and I cant go bigger than a 21 inch prop due to ground clearance on my Skyshark Christen Eagle ( 64 inch wingspan) "hopefully" coming in around 15 lbs- I still have to bolt the Brillelli on and test it once I get the new props.
Thanks again,
John

The 10 pitch with the smaller diameter should provide more speed but I would still try them both. Depending on your flying style you may like the larger 8 pitch better, but both are a little short, imo. You won't know until you try though.

I think you're going to like the 21-8. My Fox 3.2 (52cc) was turning it at 7600RPM and flying the GP 1/3 Pitts around pretty darn good at 18lbs +/-

Airwild seems to do the best of keeping the NX in stock. And they ship promptly.

I use the 21-8 Xoar on my B-46...seems to be in the right range...
Just for clarity, you are using a 21-8 prop on a 53cc engine? I would think a bit light for that displacement...

It's the right size prop for the Brillelli.
I have played a lot with NX props in different sizes with mixed results. I suggest you try the NX and compare them to the Xoar and menz, to find what you like best...
