Features

The Master Airscrew Wood Series Scimitar Propeller 17‑8 is a fixed-pitch, two-blade wooden propeller designed primarily for model airplanes, including glow-engine, vintage-style, or home-built RC aircraft. It provides a balance of classic aesthetics, efficient thrust, and reliable performance for hobbyists and scale model enthusiasts. Its durable wooden construction makes it a popular choice for traditional RC projects that require both functionality and a timeless appearance.

Scimitar Blade Design

This propeller features scimitar-shaped blades, which are swept-back with narrower tips. This unique blade profile is engineered to produce efficient thrust while reducing noise. The curved design also helps maintain smooth airflow over the blades, which enhances flight stability and provides more consistent propulsion compared to straight-blade alternatives.

High-Quality Wood Construction

The propeller is made from hardwood, typically maple or beachwood depending on size, providing a durable, smooth, and visually appealing finish. The wooden material ensures the propeller is lightweight yet strong enough to handle moderate engine power, making it suitable for small engines used in RC aircraft. Wood also adds a classic, vintage feel for scale or traditional aircraft builds.

Fixed-Pitch Design

As a fixed-pitch propeller, the 17‑8 model has a blade pitch of 8 inches that cannot be adjusted after manufacture. This is standard for wood propellers and ensures consistent performance for the engine type it is matched with. The fixed-pitch design simplifies installation and reduces mechanical complexity, making it ideal for hobbyists seeking a reliable and straightforward propulsion solution.

Balanced for Smooth Performance

Master Airscrew ensures that each propeller is well-balanced to minimize vibrations during operation. This balance contributes to smoother flight, reduces stress on the engine or motor, and helps extend the life of both the aircraft and its power system. Proper balance also ensures optimal thrust efficiency and better handling characteristics during flight.
