This is the APC 8X4.7 Slow Flyer Propeller, a remarkable choice for smooth and controlled flights. Manufactured with precision using the pultrusion process, APC propellers exhibit an impressive fiber (60%) to resin (nylon binder) density. This advanced manufacturing technique sets them apart from glass-filled nylon propellers, providing significantly improved strength and stiffness.
The added stiffness plays a crucial role in controlling vibration resonance response, ensuring a steady and stable flight experience. Moreover, the enhanced strength allows for the use of thinner cross-sections, resulting in reduced weight and enhanced aerodynamic efficiency.
Key Features:
• Incorporates a computer-optimized design, resulting in a slimmer profile and enhanced traction while minimizing noise levels
• Constructed with lightweight molded nylon material, reducing rotating mass for increased output and extended propeller lifespan
• Features reinforcing fibers that maintain a consistent pitch at any RPM, delivering reliable performance
