Helix Props

[Good old number 29 199]

We have made arrangements for Straight Aero, LLC to be an authorized dealer of Helix Props. We’ll be updating the website soon. I’m excited about this.

We have a wide range of prop options, from small, fixed pitch props for paramotors, to lots of ground-adjustable and in-flight adjustable props, with options of electric, hydraulic, manual, and automatic pitch adjustments. Also available for certified aircraft. Lightweight, carbon fiber blades, and anodized aluminum hubs. A good selection of blade profiles to suit your style and performance requirements  

If you’re interested in a quote, or purchasing one before I manage to get them added to the website, you can contact me here, or via our website, Straight Aero. 

For a ground adjustable prop, suitable for the Rotax 503, 582, 670, 912 series, or Simonini Victor 2 Super, you’ll be looking at the H50V, with the appropriate blade length, profile, and configuration for your specific gear ratio, engine, and aircraft. There are six blade profiles to choose from, for this model, with options of 2, 3, or 4 blades. 
 

Helix Props have a great reputation as durable, proven performers. 

I’m attaching the pdf manual for the H50V, for more complete information.

How about an inflight adjustable for my Jabiru 2200?

How about an inflight adjustable for my Jabiru 2200?

How about this Helix H40A? Electric, in-flight adjustable, with two choices of panel-mounted control box, and the option of constant speed or manual adjustment at the flick of a switch. This would be a great match for your Jabiru. There are a total of seven blade profiles to choose from, including two more straight profiles, besides those shown in the pictures. We can get one to you as soon as a couple weeks.

Helix isn’t yet well known in America, but they are very well established in other markets. They produce over 10,000 props per year, and have over 1,000 different props. They have props stocked here in the US, so it’s quick and easy to get what you want. They can do custom orders, going from concept to production in fourteen days. 
 

I talked with guys who fly Helix props, prior to getting into this. I got nothing but great reviews. Not a single bad thing from those I talked to. Interestingly, one of the most common words I heard from different people, was durability. One of those people referred to the durability of the props, in the context of kicking rocks into the prop on a foot-launched parachute, and compared it favorably to its closest competitor. 
 

They can also do cool designs, as seen in this pic:
