FranckZF Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 First time in this forum I have a question related with the propeller. My wood propeller suffer many times! I am wondering if some metal propeller would be posible for my long-ez? Note that i need a "climb" or "take-off" propeller because my long-ez is heavy!: 448kg empty so something like 58diameterx62!

Nathan Gifford Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 The problem with using metal propellors is the turbulance behind the EZ. Rutan thought years ago that this turbulance would cause blade failure if the blades were metal and not wood.
