Brent,

It sure looks like it would make a great spoiler if you lost power. That things got to create a tremendous amount of drag and I would think it would affect the stability of the machine.

Brent Drake has one like that and I don't think he has experienced any problems.

Brent, If you are going with a Warp Drive let me know I might want to buy that prop off of you or I might be able find a good home for it....

Good Gawd,

Wonder what that puppy would put out in a static trust test?

I don't have this prop. I was looking at one that is this wide and wanted to know if it was good or bad. From other post some think it will affect the stability of the machine.
