I thought they were 3a's when I looked at it online, but when we went to go look at it I thought that they were 4's or 5's . Thanks for the clarification Frank. All I know is they are short and i'm going to have to run a surface prop. This should be fun to get on plane. So whos got props when the time comes for testing?

The prop shaft for a V is larger than a IV, I could not tell what the diameter is from the picture.

But what do I know, I am an Arneson guy.
