Foldable Carbon Props

Posted by Tobey on July 20, 2015 at 8:54am

Looking at some different props and ran across these:

Foldable Carbon Props

Has anyone every used these or have any insight? I see their length and pitch is 0.10" shorter in both dimensions from the stock IRIS+ props, but is that enough significance? I like the idea of foldable props. I know they are not self-tightening so would require some additional hardware, but interesting nonetheless.

Thanks!

      I like the idea but it seems that the prop would lag behind it's theoretical ideal position, causing the disk size to decrease, especially under a load. This may be completely unfounded, just a hunch. The slow-mo guys could clear this up.... Maybe someone already knows.
