What is the difference between the Rotax 2 blade and 3 blade composite propellers and is the 3 blade prop worth the additional cost?
Answer The Rotax 2 blade propeller was the first composite aircraft design. Later, customers expressed interest in a 3 blade propeller for the aesthetics and perceived smoothness. After an extensive design and testing period, we have produced a propeller with: no loss in cruise speed, better take-off and climb, reduced noise, 1 lb weight savings, and a new pitch system with greater accuracy.
