    Subject: Arplast PV50 parts
    Hello Guys, Firstly, thanks for all the great information that so many well informed people have provided on this forum! I have an Arplast PV50 propeller which is playing up. The pitch change function is intermittent and I have traced it to a problem with the little screw jack mechanism. I was wondering if anyone who may have changed to a different prop from the Arplast would still have the parts? I would dearly like to get in contact with you to talk about buying the parts from you. I am in France (for shipping info). Regards, Glenn Perry

    Thank you Bud for all this detailed information. I am convinced that the Whirlwind blade is better than the WarpDrive by a few knots at cruise, even for a 912S Europa. I also believe the WW could be significantly improved with more twist. That would make the center portion of the propeller disk to produce some more thrust at cruise and therefore some more knots. Additionally, this would also improve cooling at ground idle. It seems to me that most of these propeller blades have been designed mainly for the american LSA market were there is no motivation for increased cruise performances as the maximum speed is limited by regulation anyway. For non LSA, faster is always better, so may be we should persuade Whirlwind to design a high twist blade ?
