Please help. Does anyone know who stocks Xoar PJN 24x12 (Electric) props? 3DHS used to but it looks like they no longer sell wood props. What bugs me is that Xoar doesn't even list them on their site although I know they make them. I have one that I got from another FG member a while back but I need 2 more.
Anyone know who stocks them? |

Call Bob's Hobby Shop in Orlando. They are the importer for Xoar. They literally have 10s of thousands of props in their warehouse. (I have seen them!) Don't know what shipping would cost, but I'd bet they have what you need. They have never not had a prop I need.

Thanks guys. Here is what I have found.
None of the suggested places list this size on their sites. Chiefs and Bob's are the two main retailers for Xoar (according to Xoar). Both Chiefs and Abellrc just placed a huge order but with no 24x12s so they won't be ordering agin for a while. Chiefs took my info but I have heard nothing and don't really expect to. I sent Bob's and email but no yet gotten a response. Any other suggestions? |

I went out today and flew the 24x10 on my E260 and call me crazy but I like it better than th 24x12. My E260 flies more efficiently than my Yak so it could be a different resukt on the Yak. Given the choice though, I think I prefer to fly the 24x10. These are both the Xoar Beechwood electric (PJN) I am talking about.

I went out on a windy day and the 24x10 just lacked in "umph" against the wind and the vertical was not as impressive as the 24x12. Now I am sort-of curious what a 25x12.5 would do to my amp draw. Anyone ever try one on a Hacker A60-18L? I am trying to find the sweet-spot for my setup. |

have you found any solutions yet on the props? I am also in the same spot as you running a hacker a60-18l and the 24x10 xoar runs very smooth but no pull on uplines. I am currantly running the apc 24x12e and its better but tip flutter on full throttle runups on the ground, dont do that anymore and not too comfortable with that either. seems to be ok while flying due to unloading of the prop. I think the eagle nose in a 24x12 would be great but no such thing yet. was thinking of trying a 3blade. please update if you have found the sweet prop.
thanks |

I still haven't found any anywhere (and I just broke one of my only two 24x12 PJNs). I will update the thread if I do hear of anything. I am running a mejzlik CF 24x10T(thin). It is OK but it's no 24x12 PJN.

I wouldn’t be afraid to try a PJA (gas) 24x12. I compared a PJN and PJA 26x12 and didn't notice much difference in performance. PJN is of course a little beefier.
