Well I finally got my new Warp Drive prop. With Dave's help it's on my gyro and I am flying it. The prop flys different then the PowerFin. I guess you trade off one performance for another, over all I like it better.
The PowerFin would climb a lot faster then the new one but it flys faster strait and level then the old PowerFin. I feel more stable in the new Warp Drive going 65 then when I was flying the PowerFin at 55 if I put in more power with the PowerFin to go faster I would climb when I did not want to and have to put the nose down and it felt unstable. With the Warp Drive I just go faster and not claim much at all and feel more stable with out putting nose down to compensate.
When taking off it takes a little more ground roll and power. When landing I come in a little faster then the other prop but landing actually was nicer because of the high airspeed, I just pulled back the stick when close and it came in real nice and landed very soft and short. I also checked my thrust with power on landing to make sure I would have enough to recover from a bad landing if needed and no problem still had the thrust to recover any misjudgment.
So overall I like it
Thanks again Dave for all your help :yo:
