I like Labbed Maximus props for the ultimate dial in but, the new 5 blade Precision Propeller props are sweet! P5X props are also great out of the box but lack some of the Labbing qualities.

Brett - how are the Precision props different from my P5Xs? You've done some work on my props - just curious, what might make these better? Thanks.

The PP have more material to work with. I like their geometry.

Honostly, we are just beginning the experimental Labbing process with the PP's.

They are new and we wili be doing more and more testing this summer.

We are obtaining the various pitch sizes so we can offer them for testing in stock configuration.

Bret,
If you get something in the 27-28 pitch range Id like to test a set out on my Eliminator. Currently running 30p Bravo's touching the limiters with high slip numbers.

We have 26 and 28 Maximus props for testing now, as well as the entire line. I will be getting the Precision props in ASAP.

Yeah I was wanting to test a set of the P5X props though. Are the Precision props similar to those?

The PP are closer to the Max. We will learn more this spring as we adjust the recipes for the OXP (Precision Propeller).
