Rene,

How much is a hydraulic AeroComposite prop for an XLRG 300hp IO540, and what is the normal lead time for delivery? Is the cruse speeds comparable to the MT. Has anyone done a harmonic vibration analysis on this prop airframe combination.

I like my AeroComposites prop so much, I painted my entire airplane to match it.  :)
 
110 hours and going strong.

>>What type, electric or hydraulic?  Is the engine counterweighted?  I have invested over 18K in my mt for my IO-360-C1C over the past 8 years with still no workable prop.  It sits again on my hanger floor fresh from overhaul with new blades and that is where it will stay.  Even though it's zero time at this point, I could not sleep at night pushing it off on someone.  I have come to the conclusion that the 180' firing pulses on the 360 (200hp) without counterweights are to violent for the bearing/seal design of the mt as this is what fails after approximately 40-50 hours.
