This is the APC 16x8 Thin Electric Propeller, a superior choice for electric-powered applications. These APC propellers are meticulously crafted using an advanced pultrusion process, enabling a higher fiber (60%) to resin (nylon binder) density. This unique manufacturing technique provides substantially elevated strength and stiffness compared to propellers made from glass-filled nylon. The additional stiffness plays a vital role in controlling vibration resonance response, while the increased strength allows for the use of thinner cross-sections, resulting in improved weight reduction and enhanced aerodynamic efficiency.
Key Features:
• Incorporates a computer-optimized design, providing these propellers with a thinner profile for increased performance, improved "bite,"
and reduced noise generation.
• Constructed from lightweight molded nylon, these propellers effectively reduce rotating mass, leading to higher output and an
extended operational life.
• Embedded reinforcing fibers ensure a consistent and precise pitch at any RPM.
