Orange 🍊 props Rock ! 😎👍

[@JW-gb6hq]

Very informative. Always learn something new watching your content. Keep up the good work😎

[@eggenfellner]

There is always something I don’t know, so this will be interesting. Cutting 4130 heavy wall steel with a tubing cutter and doing so without creating a smaller inside diameter. Will be interesting to see if it works. Have you tried the fit right now, prior to cutting?

[@AeroworksProductions]

I guess we’ll see in the next episode…

[@Project2Aero]

That is one good lookin prop! Wonder if they have one that might work on my Yamaha s21 build🤷🏻‍♂️

[@AeroworksProductions]

I’m sure they do, they have been making props for a long time and even make helicopter rotor blades. I can send you my contact a DUC if you’re interested.

[@Project2Aero]

@@AeroworksProductions Sounds good! Project2aircraft @ Gmail, Thanks!

[@AeroworksProductions]

@@Project2Aero Will do.

[@OneKoolDude]

When the time come, please show the prop install step by step !!

[@AeroworksProductions]

Most definitely!

[@AnonyMous-jf4lc]

If the carbon hasn’t been cleared, you should apply a 2k clear to protect the resin from UV damage.

[@AeroworksProductions]

The resin that they use is UV resistant (from the manufacturer).

[@telliott100]

Adam, I'm very interested in your AcmeAero Custom Front Susponsion when I build mine. But I do want to see how you like yours once you fly. Please give us a report of what you think about it. Thanks, Thomas

[@AeroworksProductions]

That project has been sidelined for the time being due to some additional engineering needed.

[@chichotta]

I think it should be called fan

[@n206ja]

Since you have 2 nosegear struts and one has the Zenith puck system, why don't you do a weight comparison once the new shock system is assembled, being sure to include all associated mounting hardware, etc.?

[@AeroworksProductions]

Great idea, will do.

[@shanrock3555]

Awesome. If you said it I missed it; what is the diameter of the prop?

[@homertalk]

Is a 5 blade prop a quieter prop?

[@AeroworksProductions]

That’s one benefit, another is more ground clearance due to shorter blades. The additional blades make up the needed thrust.

[@alessdre]

What is the diameter of this propeller?

[@AeroworksProductions]

76”
