Mirage conversion to ACCLERATOR
#94
Hi darin
i got my props back before my first outing as promised..THANKS!!!!.
saw 1.5 mph improvement !!!!!
rpm is ever so slightly high for my 330's at 4700 on cool night, lightly loaded.
last night with 99.9% humidity and 84 deg. i was back in range of 4500-4600 for my 330hp.
i do see some porposing at cruise 40mph, 3000rpm and require some tab to settle.
i also see the props starting to spin out slightly at my max trim postion that was used previous. (preset with my merc trim limit switches)
would you add some slightly more cup to fix porpose and maybe pull a little more mph while dropping rpm???
or....I'l back up... do you have any suggestions.....after all your the expert
also, what is your current turn around for reworks (fine tuning actually)
thanks !!

Hello Rob,I think you or we are off by 1.5 3 mph is our normal gain so,yes we can re-work them to get a little more and hopefully reduce some of the porpoising.The turnaround on re-work on yours will be one day in shop after the day of arrival(which is usually around 3:00) BUT sounds as if we are very close .
How was the mid range ACCELERATION was it the same ,stronger,weaker or what?let me know what you would like to do .Thanks again

Accelleration did feel improved. my buddies 29 PQ used to plane faster and get me on the first 1000 ft. now i beat him!!!. but he still pulls on top end. so a tweaking we will go!!!!!!
I will send props for monday arrrival. would like them back in Michigan before the end of that week.
let's pull down 100rpm with rework and I think we will be there!!!
thanks Darin

Do these Accelerator props have paper-thin sharp edges? I'm interested in this mod, but I can't have a delicate prop. When the lakes are low, you can't help but hit bottom on occasion while beaching or driving on the trailer. There's also alot of debris in the Mississippi River. Can the Accelerator handle this stuff like a stock Mirage Plus?
