IVO prop info please ??

Postby kloot piloot » Sun May 03, 2009 7:51 pm

My IVO prop seems to have broken the cam-mechanism on 1 of the 3 blades. :( I've lost 5 degrees pitch compared to the other 2 blades. Questions:

Any known IVO agent in SA ?
Prop is 7 years old. Can you only replace one blade ?
Any blades around or for sale ?

Alternatively, does anyone know of a new or 2nd hand prop available ?

503 with windlass u/c and Aquila wing.
Thanks vhpy

No idea who the local agent is but yes - you can replace one balde - it's one of their marketing points.

They will supply you a single blade. Just give them the codes hand written on the root of the blade. They are very helpful
