What does a NC prop look like? The hub? How does it locate, what is the weight, I cannot find any pics or ref`s on the net. Can someone maybe help out?

Cheers

Back to the original question.!!
Ek weet nie veel van proppe af nie.!!
Wat ek wel weet is dat my trike al twee keer omgewaai het en elke keer het ek die aerie opgetel dan le hy op sy prop.
Die laaste keer het hy so 10 meters deur die lug getrek.!!!!!
Dieselfde prop is nog steeds op die trike, is 10 jaar oud en dit is n warp drive..
Oordeel self.!!!

I honestly dont know Induna? Give nigel a call (as per details above)... as far as I know they manufacture 72" props, but they may have other options too.

@ Oom Paul...haha, the joke we always shared about Warp drive was that they are so tough, if you have to do a precautionary in a field somewhere, your last inspection pass should be about 3ft above the field so you can first mow the veld gras shorter....then land. :lol:

I have only ever flown with a warp on the back, and was very happy... but the superior performance qualities of the NC cant be ignored. I am looking forward to experiencing the increase in thrust and expecting the cruise RPM to drop as well. We shall see... 8)
