True, but I've got a copy of the manual, and it does mention both SAE 
type 1, and SAE type 2, "available for Subaru H6 Eggenfellner rated at 
200 HP." I'd post it, but it's 2+ megs. The early ones did use warp 
drive blades, which likely aren't suitable for faster planes like 
RV-x's. But some, including one I'm looking at now, has Sensenich blades 
on the type 2 hub. If I decide to get serious, I'll contact Sensenich to 
see if the blades are RV-suitable.

Do you know if Quinti is still in business? If they are, they seem to be 
in stealth mode, with no web site that Google can find. Any distributors 
in the USA? The prop I'm currently looking at has been operating fine 
for a number of years (and hours), but I'd prefer not paying for 
something for which I'll never be able to get replacement parts.

Thanks for the help,

Charlie
