Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
I am about to order some more props for my 50cc sized stuff. I think I will try a Vess. Just wanted some opinions on which one and all for a 16.5 lb Yak with a DA 50 on it. Thanks.

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
Yep.
Its pretty cool. I have the 23A on my DA 50 on my 15.3lb edge. It as BALLS of torque, and has pull out power like a **** star. But once you hit 1/2 throttle it dosen't really go any faster... Its kind of sweet.. like 50% - 100% power dosen't have any more speed, but it just pulls harder. You will notice this on a vertical line.. it just goes up like a train.. at a common speed. If your 3D'ing.. I think you would dig it.

GremlinX,
Sleepy's right...most people are using the 23A for 3D on the DA. It seems that the Yaks really like that prop. Here's a pic of Jay Benson's AM Yak at a recent IMAA event. It weighs 18+ pounds and has great throttle response in the hover and the vertical is amazing for the weight! |

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
Yeah, it is an old and repaired EF Yak 54, so it is a little tubby at 16-16.5 . I need torque. I don't fly this plane IMAC speed at all. Thanks. 23A it is... Keith

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
Can somebody get me Vess's number to order. My wife has me running around and Vess's website uses frames. This phone won't let me look. Thanks

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
I just ordered a 23A for my Evolution 45. I get very similar numbers to the DA50 depending on the prop. Sometimes higher rpm, sometimes a bit lower. Right now im using a Bolly 23x8 and pretty happy with it.
Like you guys are saying, i hope to get more torque from this prop. |

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
I'm running a 22B on my 27% ultimate with DA50. Has tons of power even at 16.5lbs. Verticle lines are much stronger, punch out of a hover is instant, and downline breaking is great. I plan on running a 23A or B on my new extra once the motor is fully run in.

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
Jenna jamerson, Tori Wells, Savanna... yea... I worked with them all... But unfortunately for me, "Giant" went out of style in that industry, and i had to retire...  Fortunately for us, GIANT STYLE will never go out of style.

Re: Anybody run a Vess on a DA 50 yet?
Haggy,
If all goes well I will be trialling the 22b on my Wild Hare extra in a few weeks. Just waiting until the motor is on synthetic oil before I change. But from the changes it prop made on the ultimate I'm sure it will be fine.
