More props from ABC..........

[Steven Vaccaro]

If Jim makes many more new props, we are going to have to open a new store to fit them.

We will be stocking the new props as they become available.

New 2016 ABC prop chart for your reading enjoyment.

Has abc even sent out any stock lately? It's been kind of impossible to get some sizes lately...

[NativePaul]

Nice, I look forward to the 1/8" sizes coming out.

We just got some stock. but are still waiting for many things.

He's been busy. Winter is r&d time for lots of rc boat companies. im sure the spring will bring lots of stock for racing season.

I just got some 2015's in yesterday. The 2015 is a 50mm version of the awesome 1815 and 1915. (1815 is 45.xxmm and 1915 is 48.xxmm

These new props are nothing short of awesome.

Fyi guys if you haven't noticed, Steve has the new higher pitched 1815's in his store already. These perform really well and the gain is a few mph each step up and not a lot more amp draw. The higher pitched 1915's are coming soon.

I just got a bunch of them in the mail on Friday and prepped them yesterday for my upcoming trip to LA for the NAMBA 2-Lap... Running two Twins... my 4S Cheetah and my 6S Pro Boat Zelos 36 with up-sized motors.

Still have a few sizes that were out of stock on the way, but these should get Rafael and I into the ball-park.

Twins - Twice the work, but double the pleasure, right??

What is the sk??

What is the sk??

That's a new profile that has a non-blunt trailing edge. In other words, the trailing edge is tapered as well.

What good does that do?

132 mph P hydro pass. A bit outside the box, but effective.

Not quite the answer I was looking for. Maybe an explanation on the effects?

[Darin Jordan]

Confusing . What do you mean by a higher pitched 1815? 1.5mm is the pitch ratio, a higher pitch 1815 isn't an 1815 anymore so I don't understand what you are telling us? Are you just referring to the 1817-17, 1819-17, etc or am I missing something?

What he really means is higher RAKE. The rake affects the blades lifting characteristics. Higher rake = Less Lift. So, more of the props pitch is going towards thrust (moving the water backwards) as opposed to lift (throwing the water up/down). Higher rooster tails, More lift.

You select your prop designed based on your needs.

These props started as an experiment. Part of it is pressure and flow control, part structural. You can put a LOT of power to the blades and not have them bend/twist. The blade prep is a little finicky, but worth the effort.

No I mean higher pitched. I wasn't trying to over complicate things, thinking that everyone would understand that a higher pitched 1815 would mean 1816, 1817, 1819..... In case anyone didn't know the 18 stands for 1.8" in diameter and the last two numbers are the pitch ratio 1.5, 1.6 etc.
