Sweet! vess props 22 & 23 inch

I got to fly the vess props 22 inch and 23 inch prototypes on my carden cuda that has a da 50 on it. I liked all the ones that I flew, but the best one was the 23b for my plane. The prop makes lots of thrust and no noise. I had unlimited vertical and the down lines were nice and slow, but still had a ton of power to pull out of a hoover. I think these will be a big hit. Hope to get to fly them some more this week end and will post any more info. that I come up with.



thanks, josh

I really appreciate your test efforts Josh! And thanks for giving me plenty of stick time. I agree with your assessment that the 23B is the best all around for constant speed aerobatics and 3D for your Cuda. I really liked the feel......and what a nice plane! I've attached a couple of pics.

Guys, just so you know, the process of bringing these props to market is a little more involved than just designing one prop and making a bunch of sizes of it. Each prop is a unique design and thus must be tested during each step of the process to make sure it suits the application well. Right now, we are doing the FINAL tests of these 50cc sizes before production. So, in an effort to avoid giving availability dates and then not meeting them, I'll just say that we are real close! I appreciate your patience.

Man, I really want to try these for my 3W 50CS. Do I mind if I do some kind of comparison to a Bolly 22x10 with video? Bolly's are more or less the standard around here. We fly at 5000 ft. to.
