This is the APC 8x3 Slow Flyer Pusher Propeller, a high-performance propeller designed for precise control and efficiency. APC propellers are manufactured using an advanced pultrusion process, enabling a higher fiber (60%) to resin (nylon binder) density. This unique manufacturing method results in superior strength and stiffness compared to propellers made with glass-filled nylon. The additional stiffness effectively controls vibration resonance response, while the increased strength allows for the use of thinner cross-sections, optimizing both weight reduction and aerodynamic efficiency.
Key Features:
• Computer-optimized design ensures a thinner profile, delivering enhanced performance with reduced noise and improved biting capability.
• Lightweight molded nylon construction minimizes rotating mass, resulting in higher output and extended propeller life.
• Reinforcing fibers maintain a true and constant pitch at any RPM, ensuring reliable and consistent performance.
