Subject:<= /B> [FlyRotary] Warp Drive Prop

Group,

= A little off subject but is anyone in the group currently flying a "Warp D= rive" prop ??.......If so

what is your opinion ??.............I just bought this= one for my dorment "CASSUTT" project (To be

Rotary powered of course)...............This is a 60" = diameter, HI-PERF model bought for a RV-4 to

be powered by 160 hp , 0-320 Lycoming............Shoul= d be just right for a short legged CASSUTT

that is limited to about 60" prop diameter and powered= by 160 hp+ Rotary...............Prop has never

been used..............I would not put one of these on= a hard thumping 4 cylinder Lyc but believe that

it work well on one of our smooth/geared Rotarys......= .......All opinions valued pro or con !!.............

Thanks,
