Are any of you guys flying a 601HD with a Corvair and using a Sensenich

wood prop? I think I'm going to replace my Warp with a wood prop. Maybe if

someone is flying a 6 cylinder Jabriu/HD with a Sensenich the required

pitch might be about the same (only backwards)



I hate to be the pioneer in this.

Randy,  

   

Do a search on William Wynne’s site or call him (flycorvair.com). He has done some research with Corvair/Sensenich wood props. I believe it was for the KR2.  However, he might have also done work for aircraft in the 601 speed range too. I think I’ve even seen his 601 with a wood prop in some of his pictures. I’m sure a quick call to him should give you lots of info.   

   

Good Luck,

 Thanks, but unless it's a 601HD it's just going to be an educated guess since the cruise speeds are different. I called Sensenich and they don't have anyone on record with a HD/Vair. He did some comparison between what William has vs. other Corvair powered planes and came up with the recommendation of a 64X39. That also falls in close with the calculator on the Culver props web page. I'll eventually talk to William about it. Right now I figure he's going to be unavailable until mid August because of Oshkosh and vacation.
