|
|
Okay, I've done the 2 blade vs 3 blade experiment and I'm not going to use the 2 blade hub. Warp Drive wants $225, yours for $150 plus shipping. This hub fits both 75mm Rotax 2 strokes and 912 / 914 with drive lugs.

I didn't notice any difference in climb or cruise and I like the looks of the 3 blade better. The two blade may have had an advantage in length of glide while on approach with the throttle at idle, but I really wouldn't want to make that claim. It was a little windy and very cross yesterday. I'd keep the hub and experiment more, but I have a hangar full of stuff from that kind of thinking. My Icom A-22 won't transmit with the headset adapter and I've promised myself a new A-14 for my birthday next month so the hub goes.
