If your running a mechanical tach have it check using an optical or digital tach. I have said it before many times and I will say it again. The difference was enough that after testing the demo prop, I bolted my 82X44 back on for 2 flights then went and plopped my CC down and walked out the door with the new prop and I have never looked back.Īnother benefit of the CF prop is instant spooling and better throttle response when your dragging it in. I have switch back to BW so I need to run the tests again just to see what the #s are on BW versus skis. 35' and we seem to get about 1-2 seconds longer take off, but a few MPH faster than the 82X44 borer. At 34 I can turn it up and get the best take off time, but cruise suffered a few MPH. On my 160 HP pacer I was over 48% shorter on take off times (17.7 seconds with 82X44 to 9 seconds at 34') on skis with a solid ice runway and better climb/cruise.įor what its worth, After a lot of testing I turned down one of the higher pitch pins that I can't use to give me a 35' pin and the 150/160 engine seems to like this pitch the best.

Every single plane (not just cubs) showed significant improvement on take off, climb and cruise speed. I made up a spread sheet for the local dealer who was involved in the testing and certification flights and we compared A LOT of different planes doing same day testing with the original prop on the planes then the Sensenich GA prop at various settings. Measures 6’l x 6”w and 3.5” thick.Night and day difference. While it’s not airworthy, it’s definitely worthy of a place of honor in any home or office. Center hub includes stamped serial numbers and, on the back of the hub, the words “not airworthy” appear. Right from the Sensenich factory in Plant City, Florida, this Propeller is crafted from yellow birch wood featuring a clear lacquer finish with hand-painted olive tips and actual polished brass edging. This Sensenich Propeller looks like it came from an actual airplane-literally! That’s because it’s not a replica. Sensenich Wooden Display Propeller (6’) Made in the USA In 1999, Sensenich began their highly successful line of ground adjustable composite propellers for Airboat, Aircraft and UAV’s. During the 1960’s, the use of UAV’s became prevalent and Sensenich was right there with propellers for the new industry. Aluminum propellers for aircraft were added to their product line in the 1950’s. In 1949 they began to manufacture wood propellers for the burgeoning airboat market. Sensenich Propeller was established in 1932 to manufacture fixed pitch wood aircraft propellers for the growing aviation market. Sensenich Propellers “right on the nose” Since 1932
