JohnD -------------------- Thanks for the info John. The Warp Drive folks did tell me that their prop would usually be 10 mph or so slower than a good wood prop, so that may be about right, since an RV-6 isn't necessarily much faster than 185 mph. I haven't followed Jim's project closely enough to know how fast his plane really should be. Since we seem to be finding problems with IVO and Warp Drive, are there any other ground adjustable props that will work for us? I specifically do not want a non-adjustable prop to start out. Thanks, Rusty
