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
