    small props for 3/16 units?

    anyone make small props for the 3/16 size drives?
    I have a 3300KV and used a 40mm prop and then went to a 38mm and it got faster so i am in need of something smaller than 38mm any help will be great.
    O it's for a cat proboat apache 24
    THANKS

    Have you looked at OSE's online store? Octura makes something like 150 props for 3/16", Grimracer makes a bunch, Prather, etc... They aren't uncommon

      The Octura X438 is the smallest prop available with a 3/16 shaft. But I could cut one down a bit if that is what you want to do. The other option is to go to a 1/8 or a 4mm threaded shaft.

              I have taken 4mm props and reamed out the center to 3/16" it has worked well. I use a milling clamp under my drill press... There are tons of 4mm props out there
