Subject: [FlyRotary] IVO Prop

Does anyone have any experience or opinions using an IVO Magnum Inflight Adjustable prop with a rotary?  I am considering the IVO for use with my Velocity / Renesis and would appreciate any coments.

 

Thanks,

Joe

 

Joe, don't know how the IVO prop is with the rotary engine, but it definitely is not recommended for a Velocity (or any pusher) with a Lyc. engine.  I suspect that the wing turbulence is too much for the IVO prop. A Velocity crashed and lost the whole family a while back using the IVO prop if I correctly remember.  My 2 cents.
