Frequently Asked Questions:

Q1. What makes the "17x12" dimensions of this propeller ideal for high-speed aircraft?

Ans. The "17x12" dimensions, specifically the high 12-inch pitch paired with the 17-inch diameter, are ideal for high-speed aircraft because they are optimized for generating significant forward velocity. This high pitch means the propeller moves a large volume of air a great distance with each rotation, efficiently translating motor power into speed. The 17-inch diameter provides ample thrust while remaining suitable for a range of medium to large electric fixed-wing aircraft.

Q2. How does carbon fiber construction benefit propeller rigidity and efficiency?

Ans. Carbon fiber construction provides exceptional rigidity and efficiency to the propeller. Its stiffness minimizes flex under high RPM and aerodynamic loads, ensuring that the blade shape is maintained precisely. This prevents energy loss due to deformation, allowing for more direct conversion of motor power into thrust. The rigid design also contributes to less vibration and noise, improving overall flight performance and component lifespan.

Q3. Can this FALCON Carbon Electric propeller be used on glow or gas engines?

Ans. No, the "FALCON Carbon Electric" propeller is specifically designed and optimized for electric motors. Its hub design, weight, and blade profile are tailored for the characteristics of electric propulsion systems. Using it on a glow or gas engine, which typically operate at different RPMs and vibrations, is not recommended and could lead to performance issues, propeller failure, or safety hazards. Always use propellers designed for your engine type.
