    ABC Props

    I always have trouble getting these in AUS, it would be nice to get the "H" series props on this site.

    thanks

    John,
    Try Tony at Hobby Supplies, I think he carries the ABC Props as well as Prop shop.



    Cheers...Tim.

          Good prices, even for the US on both sites, Kiwis slightly better.

            props ordered thanks.

            it seems like there is a world wide shortage of the H6 though.

                I spoke to Jim for about an hour the other day. He's really on board on making new props for electric. But has no input on our needs.

                Lots of his smaller props will be electric compatible. What props and sizes are you guys interested in that he currently sells?

                  Well, the scale 1/10 hydro guize all turn counter clockwise so they need reverse rotation props. The most common size is Octura X447R and the Graupner K55 (reverse rotation). Typically the Octura is detongued, balanced and polished.

                  There are no usable three-blades in reverse rotation in this size.

                  If this becomes a NAMBA class, a wider selection of props is even more important.

                    i know over here, most of US electron burners have in out standrd KIT , h5, h6, h7, 1440, 1442, 1445, x642, x645, x646, x440 -x445 almost all of us over here "try" to have this kinda range, but the ABC range is getting harder and harder to get over here and what we can get is $80-$95 per B&S prop, even a standard 642, and then there is adding cup, back cutting, detounging all that fancy stuff adds up too ( ontop of the $80+ )
                    all your prices on B&S prop are very resonable even with a bad Exchange rate.

                    Just thought it might be worth a shot,

                    in a perfect world i would like to see the H series and 14 series ABC props on here with the option of balancing and sharpening. you seem to all the rest covered.

                      Steve, the H series are good props. I have a H5(modified slightly) on a Supervee and it absolutely flies. Then the same prop on a whiplash was wicked as well.

                        What mod have you done to your H5 to make your supervee absolutely flies how fast is it now?

                          Wouldn't you like to know Adrian? na i'm not entirely sure on the mods, i didn't prep the prop.
                          As for speeds, Dads supervee is outrunning Jeff's one which is doing about 60-65K so its pretty good.
                          You might have to try it on your Lizard some time eh?
