G'day all, my RV8 with Renesis motor is getting to the point where I need a prop selection. I prefer a 2 blade prop for efficiency and fixed pitch for cost, but I'm not steadfast of this. Any recommendations?

Aircraft specs are: RV8, Renesis motor, EC2/EM2, RD-1C Sam James rotary cowl.

Thanks Greg

Gary Hertzler makes a two blade prop called"Silver Bullet". It is so good, that a number of EZ owners have dumped their 3 blades in favor of Gary's. Unfortunately, unless he happens to have "your" prop on the shelf, you're looking at a six to nine month lead time. It can't hurt to ask, though.hertzler@yahoo.com Dale R. | (___ | COZY MkIV-R13B #1254 |----==(___)==----| Mesa, AZ o/ | \o Ch's 4, 5, 9, 16 & 23 in progress http://www.canardzone.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1388 http://members.cox.net/rogersda/Products.htm *Cedat Fortuna Peritis*
