Lots of old treads on here, wondering if anybody had any up to date info? Im running a bravo 4 blade 26pitch its was labbed I believe at some point but I hit something and bent it and had it rebuilt and they put it back to stock since they don't lab them.

A labbed 26 B1 with the blade thinning and weight reduction will spin about the same as a stock 24 B1. The handing might be different with top end very close from what I have done.

Anybody ever try a 5 blade px5? What speed/handling differences would I see from a stock bravo 26p over a labbed?

What speeds are you seeing at what rpm?

76@5150 that was the 26p B1. I also tried a 25 P5X Not bad. Good cruise prop. Top end suffered

With a 496HO? My best was around 68 with a balanced and sharpened 24 B1, light load, with the tide, with the wind, light fuel, one person, never duplicated.

Pretty sure he was talking about his 24 pantera not a 28 heat😉

I have a 26 bravo 4 blade rt was looking to get another prop ( i only have one no spare ) trying to decide weather i lab my 26 or get a stock 24 bravo. I do like what spineeli has to say about there props.

On the topic of props -- I'm on the hunt for a used stock RH spinning 4 blade 24P B1, or labbed/thinned 26P B1, or 25P P5X.
