Hello Listers-
Does anyone have any experience or know of anyone using an Airmaster
variable pitch, in-flight adjustable, electrically controlled propellor? I
came upon the website at www.propellor.com and was instantly impressed. Now
I'm looking for some real world data. I searched the newsgroups via
Deja.com, but didn't get any hits.
This prop doesn't need the engine to be suitable for constant speed props,
and weighs little more than a ground adjustable prop. They'll even fit your
current Warp Drive blades into their adjustable hub. Electrical failure mode
stops the prop at whatever position it is currently in. A complete unit for
engines between 70-110hp is appx. $3600, and comes with everything you need.
It even has an automatic mode that will keep a constant RPM, even in
aerobatics.
Any stories, horror or otherwise, are appreciated.
Thanks all,
Rob Day
