Thanks for all the off-list responses on my Prop wanted post. There are some really good deals out there on V530 paddle blades. I'll remember that if I break mine.

However, I was not as clear as I could have been. It is a screw-in after-market blade set I'm looking for, not another paddle blade. The reason is that I am going to enter the AirVenture Cup race to Oshkosh this year. I did so in 2013 but in an effort to improve on that experience, I would like to try something different. Not a 3-bladed"airbrake", but a screw in replacement for the V530 hub.

Perhaps there may be no improvement, especially at the 80% power setting I use; but I would like to find out, first hand. Yes, I could just buy one, but it's kinda like trying on a pair of shoes first.

I will appreciate any leads.

Craig, a new prop is not gonna help with/win the race. I'm in the process of mounting a surplus J79-GE-17 on the belly of my CJ... Just trying to figure out the weight and balance, but shouldn't be too hard... See you at OSH...but many hours after I arrive. JB
