CS prop
well, a rather new company, variprop, has a prop they assure me will work fine.
pros smaller than aerocomp, a big issue because of prop strikes longer extension, an issue for good air flow Price is excellent cons a new company A NEW COMPANY a non fiberglass covered wood prop. I've made a deal with the owner to supply me in trust with my attorney all specs for making parts that are not readily available in case he ever goes out of business. Ive contacted gary hertzler to see if he can glass the prop for me. I hope i can arrange it otherwise the pusher configuration seems to get more FOD damage than tractor configurations and the bigger and more expensive aerocomp will have to fit the bill

Re: CS prop
had a funny conversation with prop mfg. They think i am concerned with getting the tail as small as possible, smaller than their smallest hub assembly of 13"
Well, I'm not. my concern is smoooooooooooth airflow. bringing the cowl at a rate that provides the most "clean" air to the back of the plane without causing turbulence. Heck, i hope i can do it with just a 14" hub, the plane will tell me when i build the prop. They are sending me a hub fixture of the max length possible the smallest size is of no import, there is no blade that close to the hub to produce thrust

Re: CS prop
On the aero composits prop, there is no "extension, they build the extension as part of the prop. I think the maximum is about 5.7 inches.
the 14" i am talking about and had written about very poorly is the mounting plate for the prop spinner.

Re: CS prop
Well I am now in possession of a prop manual and a spinner hub, prop will be here in a week or 2
the spinner hub is for a 15" spinner, the smallest i could bring the lower cowl down to without tripping airflow.

Re: CS prop
Looks like somebody just took delivery of a new three blade prop!
 But where the heck are you? Looks like your in a builders office with all the home specs in the background.
