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

Charlie,
I still see a few resellers for Quinti stuff. Be aware that
the hubs I'm seeing are only rated to 160 HP. A 2 rotor with
decent tune should exceed that easily. A peripheral port by 40
or 50 HP! They were using warp drive blades when I first saw
them, don't know if that is still true.
