Hello Rical26
I also am looking for an IVO IFA or constant speed prop to fit a 912UL (80H
P) on a Kitfox Vixen. If Rich is not interested I may be. Is this what you
have? How many hours and price please.
Thanks

You can get spinners from Aircraft Spruce for about $145. Just tell them the engine
and prop.

Lee,
This is an interesting subject. I had the Warp on my Kitfox and removed
it for the Kiev. I was told that I would get better, smoother and
quieter operation then the Warp. I saw it on some Highlanders and was
thrilled with its beauty ! (still am) Its about 1 lb lighter than the
Warp.
However after several pitch changes with it I have found it to be no
better in speed than my Warp was. It is however turbine smooth and
extremely quiet! It has to be much easier on the gearbox as they claim.
It is a dramatic difference! Most aircraft have a speed increase with
this propeller. As an example a Paradise P1 in our area with a smooth
cowling had a 5mph speed increase going from a Warp to the Kiev. It is
fast anyway. I believe the reason I didn't get an increase is due to the
radial cowl on my Kitfox. The twist on the Kiev starts real early as you
move away from the hub. This jams air down the open radial cowl thus
increasing drag. My oil temp dropped almost 10 degrees when I put the
Kiev on the plane.
I am going to keep my Kiev as I do like its smoothness and have not
lost performance.
I have come to believe,however,that the Ivo might be the best overall
prop in terms of speed as it is flexible. It sure isn't pretty though.
Looks like a model airplane propeller and has stick on tape leading
edges rather than a nice inlay as on the Warp (brass on the Kiev)
The Warp is a really tough prop, made well. I have mine hanging on the
wall of my hanger in case I were to decide to go back to it in case I
broke a blade or something on the Kiev.
Anyway, that's my opinion.

Hi Bob,
If you get a spinner from Aircraft Spruce and tell them what engine and prop i.e.
Warp they will make it a perfect fit. You can get it in fiberglass or aluminum.
That ACS spinner should work, but a Warp spinner isn't bad either. I prefer
the forward facing backing plate and you might as well get them pre-drilled.
You should always get a backing plate with the nose cone because they are a
matched set for the holes.
