    MAS EP only series 3 blades?

    I wrote an email to MAS explaining the need for 3 blade offerings in their electric only series of propellors. I got a quick response.

    They agreed indicating they are coming, but couldn’t specify how soon.

    I sent a similar email, over six months ago, about four blade props for the FMS 1400 P-51 and Corsair. The response was similar to yours, new three and four blade props are coming.

        MAS props make good paint stir sticks.

        I'd be more interested in APC coming out with 3 and 4 blade E series props.
        FF gliders and rubber power since 1966, CL 1970-1990, RC since 1975.

        current planes from 1/2 oz to 22 lbs

          Oh yeah, I forgot about APC. I always thought it was Zinger that made good paint stir sticks!

            Worst to best:
            Zinger
            MAS
            Anybody not listed squeezes in here somewhere (just no)
            APC for composite under 18 inches
            Xoar for wood

              I like the MAS EP two blade. Light and strong, with a normal blade shape, not the weird cranked “efficient “ design of the pointy APC.
