Large Scale Propellers
I am building a 1/4 Scale (26%) Skybolt that will sport a 52cc engine. The new Skybolts all sport three bladed props. I haven't been able to find a source for any props that are big enough for this power plant. Not even sure I'd use one, but would like the option based on price and efficiency. Anyone here have any advice on usage or sources? Thanks

Great Hobbies sells the MAH carbon props in 3 blade big enough for a 52cc engine. I am running a two blade 22-8 MAH and love it. Never tried the three blades but the quality is the same, just cost more! Check them out...

MAH is some european manufacturer, they also make heli blades. Hollow molded carbon like Mejzlik's. But have rounded swept tips. Scimitar shape.
You'd have to get more info from GH as I dont have a website for MAH, but my friend is a dealer in southern ontario for the heli blades. Andrew
