I have been lobbying for taller Rev 4's for years. Since I no longer run the Racing propeller division, I don't have much pull (The Rev 4 is a main line prop however).

We might have some Turbo props to test with. Call us if we can still help.

Its been a while since I checked the prop section.. I was actually thinking about this today and decided to check and see if I got any more responses.

Brett, are you guys able to turn a bravo into more of a neutral/overall lifting prop- kinda like what the Rev 4 is? I know the blade design is very different, but can adding cup to a bravo help focus the thrust so its not so much a stern lifter, or is that mostly in the blade design?

I'm sure I'll be calling you as I try to find an all arounder for this thing.. I have a 29P Mirage solid hub that I think will work well for speed, but I'm still going to be looking for an all arounder that performs as well as the Rev4 for rough water.

Also, I know I don't have any pull, but I'm going to call Merc anyways and talk to them about this.. that damn prop works so well, you'd think there would be a big demand for taller pitches.

I swear I've read rumors of taller pitchs in the works, but can't seem to find where I ran across that.

There are no taller pitches in the works.

Yes, we do adjustments to the Bravo 1 every day to create different running attitudes. Creating more reaction to trim and less stern lift is the most common adjustment we make.

Call us and we can explain it in more detail.

Thanks Brett!

I'll get this project done and some base line #s with my 29Mirage and call you to talk about options this spring...
