Griff,

 

Hoping for the same type of performance, but obviously the pitch is
different. I discussed it with the manufacturer over the phone. He is pretty
sure the 49 pitch is what I need. 

 

I've always heard that the different Propeller manufacturers have a slightly
different method of measuring the pitch. I am hoping to get the same exact
performance as I had with the Sterba.

 

I can't see much difference visually on the shape. The Hoverhawk uses a
clear coat varnish, white tips, the urethane leading edge is black. The
Sterba just had some stain with its varnish.

It looks great!  Looking forward to the flight test results, when this
rotten wx breaks.

 

Now, your old Sterba was 54/54, and this new Hoverhawk is  a 54/49(L).  Does
that mean it's a bit different than your old one?

KR2S repairs completed.  

 

Thanks for Griff Pickett and John Bouyea I have completed the repairs on my
nose wheel and strut. 

 

I received the new propeller from Hoverhawk on Friday.
