I just returned from the airport after yet another YEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA flight. A perfect day for flying. I just may have to go back and watch the sun set from 3000'. Anyway, I flew the 52" diameter three blade Warp Drive set at 17° which is equal to 48" pitch. The take off roll was much shorter than the 56x64 Sterba prop I was flying. Cruise was 135mph at 3500' and an rpm of 2950. I like the Warp Drive with the exception that I noticed more vibration with it than with my wooden prop. I sent the wood prop to Ed Sterba to get it re-pitched to a 54x54. When I get it back, It will go back on my plane. Once I fly the new Sterba prop and performance is still lacking, I will bite the bullet and buy me an Ellison EFS3A carburetor and sell the EFS2 I am currently flying.
