Sure seems like those 1.04 gears are way to low for the horsepower.
I PM you, call if you have any questions.
Sure seems like those 1.04 gears are way to low for the horsepower.
Everyone I have talked to who builds propellers has spit out a 12x15 3-blade as the recommended prop based on either a 1.04 or 1.10 ratio. Looking at buying a new heat treated steel unit from Ron Braksma. If anyone has a 12x15 3-blade in left hand rotation for a 1-inch shaft I am all ears.
Thanks
Travis,
Did you figure out what the gear ratio is?
According to the serial # and a little recon work from Casale it is a 1.10 ratio. After talking with Lee at Schiada and a few other prop guys I need a 12x15 3-blade.
Sounds like your on the right track.
Thanks for your help Mike. I just want to make sure I get the best prop for the money.
Travis
