We will be making our own fixed pitch prop, thanks anyhow on that.
We won't be needing one for awhile but starting to do the research now.

OK Chrissi but a geared rotary cries out for a variable pitch
and not just because of better take off. Better MPG.

Paul,
I'm missing something here. If you optimize a fixed pitch prop for best
cruise economy, why would a VP prop get you BETTER economy?
John Slade

That's true if you cruise at the same power setting and altitude all the time.
