The WhirlWind GA propeller series are ground pitch adjustable aircraft propellers featuring advanced aerodynamic and composite design. The high gloss urethane surface shows off the quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.<\/span><\/p>\n

The blade design is optimized for maximum efficiency and minimum noise. The blade structure is manufactured from theromoset epoxy\/graphite composite matrix. This advanced composite structure ensures high strength and blade accuracy in all flight environments. Only WhirlWind propellers come standard with electroformed Nickel leading edge shields for superior fit and abrasion protection. The hub is CNC machined from aerospace aluminum and is dimensionally certified.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hi WhirlWind,<\/p>\n

Just installed your new 70in S.T.O.L. propeller on UL350 powered Zenith 701. I can say with confidence this is the best performing propeller we have tried, and we have tried them all! Take off and climb are impressive and everyone is crazy over the carbon fiber finish.<\/p>\n

Thanks for a fantastic propeller !!<\/p>\n

We flew for 4 hours with the new Whirl Wind 3 blade propeller for the UL 350IS and I must say I am impressed. 3300 RPM for takeoff and the propeller would out climb the \u201cBrand X Propeller\u201d, however the cruise RPM was too high. So that we added 2 degrees of pitch and could take with 3000 RPM, the rate of climb was still 1400 feet per minute. Now I cruise with 100 less RPM than the \u201cBrand X\u201d at 96 MPH and 2560RPM. This is the best preforming propeller we have tested. And we\u2019ve tested all the big name brands.<\/p>\n

Here are Pictures of our new UL 350 3 blade Whirlwind propeller during the partial solar eclipse. Fitting because this prop has eclipsed all the others we have tested so far.<\/p>\n
