Sorry Bill, I just reread what I wrote a second ago, and it may have come off as rude. That was not my intent, intended a bit of humor. Sorry if it was taken wrong.

  Reason I posted this was from the Alternative engine fly in this weekend in Paducah KY. Sam had a problem with low RPM, and it was immediately remedied with a different prop (but labeled the same dimensions) After running, and a side by side comparison, obvious that the first was a misbuild? mislabel? not sure, but not correct. I have a prop from the same builder, and was wondering about it. Thus, I checked and reported.
