Title: anybody recommend some good props that don't break when flying
Post by: stevestoys on May 25, 2013, 05:02:52 PM
Yeah my new propellers are rubbish. One has broken in flight. Want some good ones but as cheap as possible. Tried and tested off eBay will do as I'm still learning and don't want to break expensive ones but also no good if they brake. Cheers

Just had a look but the ones listed as multi rotor ones are too big for mine. I use 9 x 4.5 on my 1300 motors. Would it be any good getting a set of 4 of the 10 inch ones ?

The 9x4.7`s would be fine, just no stock at this time it shows

Oh it's just they are not listed as multi rotor like the other ones. Ok will have to wait.

9x4.5 on a 1300 motor? Wouldn't the motor be too fast for the blade? Especially if the blade was designed for slow flight? From my research, a c750 motor would do? Jut a thought. I could be completely wrong.
