HQ Bullnose props

Post by Lee »

I had a 1 hour window to fly in the last two weeks of howling winds.
Got to try the Bullnose props from HQ.
My thoughts are:
So much stiffer, much more responsive.
Quieter.
Well balanced.
Better yaw response
Great power.
Easier tuning.

Down side is being stiffer, they are really brittle. I had a slight tip over on a landing, and broke a prop.
Only had one set, so need to order more :(
For those looking for performance, these are awesome.
For those learning, not a good option, as you'll break a LOT of props.

I love them before I started using them I was having some bad issues with yaw, and after fitting these to porket the yaw issue was completely gone.
Like Graham said they can be hard to get hold of some times so I tend to order 10 full sets at a time.

Same here on the yaw. It would over rotate on CCW turns, but not on CW.
Now its rock solid.

Just ordered a bunch of the surveilzone 6x4 props.
Gonna cut them down the 5x4 bullnose.
Seem that Bruce at RCMR has given them the thumbs up in comparison to the HQ ones.
