They have a gyro section and a Sportcopter vortex but it has a 912.

Let's experiment, I will have it in 3 weeks.
It's a good thing it didn't say 2 weeks.

So I had a warpdrive prop 66" a buddy has a
woodcomp 67"and I tried it and it has better climb and speed.
Does anyone know the good, bad and ugly about woodcomp? I like it just don't know much about them.

You obviously don't have enough Meglin-Prop to feel the difference :).

Chris tried one on her Titanium at Mentone one year I think it was a 6 bladed one. They claim to be quieter. The one she had sounded like a giant Hoover vacuum cleaner was being sexually assaulted by every swarm of bees for 100 miles around. They remind me of ultra props. Too flexible.
