Do you mean COUNTER-ROTATING or left and right handed?
Is there a counter-rotating mechanism to drive them for I/C engines?

John:

The APC "e" series propellers are for electric use only. The hubs do not have enough beef to absorb the torque pulses from the power strokes of an internal combustion engine. They have a clear warnig that they should never be used in and IC application.

Thanks David,

You also answered an unasked question with your reply. I'm back to modelling after many years, trying to get up to speed on so many of the new products and techniques.

I'm too committed to I/C at the moment to think about electrical power, it also sounds rather complex. I have been to the Warbirds meeting at Conningsby this year and been very very impressed with what is being done with electrics.
