Wood prop for Corvair

Post by Riley »

I've been offered a near-new Sensenich CCW prop at a fair price but before I commit to buy, can anybody advise if I can expect reasonable performance using this 58" X 50" 2-blade wood prop on my 100hp Corvair-powered Piet? She's been performing quite well with a 68" WarpDrive gnd/adj 2 blade but I seek the classic look of a wood prop. Thanks in advance for any & all advice which will be much appreciated.

The place to get your answer is on the CorvAircraft list or William Wynne's Flycorvair facebook page.
