16x13 APC AP1613 High-Pitch Prop for RC Planes  [AP1613]

Design and Performance Notes

The APC AP1613 is a 16x13 propeller supplied as a spare for electric-powered model aircraft and scale projects, aimed at pilots who want to alter performance through prop selection. It suits hobby-scale applications where a higher pitch is desired to increase cruise pace or thrust under load.

Fitment follows standard practice: 16x13 denotes diameter and pitch and the prop mounts to common hobby hubs with the right shaft adapter and nut or prop saver. Always confirm hub dimensions and spinner clearance before fitting to avoid interference.

When tuning, moving to a 16x13 will typically increase pitch-driven speed and load but will draw more current, so ensure your motor and ESC are capable of the extra demand. Balance the prop carefully and inspect for any blade damage before flight.
