   I wonder how it ended? Did the manufacturer respond? Is the blade grounded? Did it go fast? Are you happy with the propeller?

   meglin added a post in a topic Best prop for STOL, Jabiru 2200    29 Aug 2023

   The main way to increase thrust at launch is to increase the dia. That's why we supply Jabiru with a 2-blade propeller with extra strong 63.8" diameter saber blades. It provides optimum start, flight, noise and engine cooling. At the same time, we have made several dozen wooden propellers for Jabiru to improve launch performance while maintaining cruising speed and low noise. We had to use a special blade profile. The diameter was increased successively up to 68.5". We did not need high speed, our airplane did not fly faster than 200 km/h (124 miles per hour). The propeller continued to "whisper".

   The left rotation propeller is gone. Only right rotation propellers are available. All others will have to wait for production.

    About the benefits and harms of covers

    Dear friends and colleagues!
    Due to the fact that quite a lot of our propellers are in operation in your country, I will allow myself to remind about one important rule.
    I do not know how much it is accepted in your country. In our country it is accepted automatically and without reminding. This rule is related to the storage of aircraft in the open air.
    So: after every precipitation any covers must be removed and dried. At the same time, the aircraft unit itself is ventilated and dried. If it is necessary to speed up drying, it is desirable to turn the covers out.
    This applies to any airplane unit as well as to the propeller. It turns out that many operators do not do this. It rains, and the equipment literally sours in water for many days. At the same time, the safety of the equipment under the covers does not improve, but significantly worsens! Ventilation is impeded and corrosion develops.
    Covers are designed to protect against UV light, accidental scratches, dust and dirt, from direct water ingress. But after rain, they aggravate the situation by making ventilation more difficult.
    In the case of a propeller, the lower blades literally float in water after a heavy rain. The dense outer fabric prevents the water from evaporating quickly. The soft inner fabric is excellent at absorbing moisture and retaining it for a long time.
    We know that rainwater contains impurities and is an electrolyte. The epoxy surface layer, while chemically resistant, can gradually discolor and cause unnecessary issues. We have supplied thousands of propellers but have already had two similar recalls. That is why I took the liberty of reminding myself of this rule.
    Please pardon my English.

    meglin added a post in a topic Jabiru 2200 Prop Recommendation for C model    20 Jul 2023

    Friends, a 63.8" diameter 2-blade saber blade propeller is great for the Jabiru 2200.  The diameter is slightly larger than recommended, but it increases thrust and the arrow-shaped tip mitigates wave crisis. Engine loads are extremely high, so the blades are made of a particularly strong pure carbon fiber. American pilots suggested calling them "Eagle Wings". Production now lasts approximately 4 weeks, delivery approximately 3 weeks.

    For the US, another convenient delivery channel has emerged - Meest Express. They deliver very inexpensively first to New Jersey and then to individual recipients' addresses.

    Would 66.9" suit you? We can make exactly 66".
