Hey Greg
    No to the question (off line) it is not a Warp  drive. It was built by 
Props Inc.  67"   3 blade out of  Oregon, without any known vibration survey 
done on a Velocity with a Jabaru  engine. As far as I know this is the only one. 
    Mitch Thanks for the offer but the bolt pattern is the  same as a 
lycoming, not a Rotax
 
    For every one out there trying your own thing, I  personally applaud you. 
BUT for those that are trying the newest bestest things,  wether it be 
cheapest or fastest, be careful. Paul (my friend) was going to load  his family into 
his bird in a couple more hours. In the coarse of making your  decision for 
engine/ prop combination look for reliability first and foremost.  Proven 
combinations!!!!
     Throwing a blade off a prop has known to be FATAL,  landing at a airport 
after doing so INCREDABLE, not really hurting the plane  REMARKABLE, finding 
the guy on the field that has a mobile home, next to  the airport, that he's 
not using, with a recently diagnosed medical problem  where' as he can't drink, 
and a fridge full of beer that he was going to throw  away, in a dry town.    
   Is just a  MIRICLE!                                       Talk about a 
Lucky Day with a broke airplane.
                            
                                        Ken
