Following up on my own experience with GSC I wrote about my Mission profile immediately after sending this out.
"We can up you to a 62” x 30 or 32 . We can have a prop out in 10 days after it is ordered. The price on that is $585.00 USD without leading edge protection and $650.00 USD with leading edge protection. Shipping will be extra. Marty GSC Systems" Lead time is great. Price seems current market. Performance unknown... I was thinking more of a back up prop but if 10 days is the norm I may just wait until the need presents itself. My current prop is a Sterba 58x34 and works great on NX237F <https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=nx237f>. Someone should inquire on a KR2 54"? and let the team know. Should be less .
