APC AP13055EP 13x5.5WEP Electric Reverse/Pusher Prop - Wide Blade  [AP13055EP]

13x5.5WEP Wide Blade Electric Propeller

The APC AP13055EP propeller serves as an RC replacement tailored for electric pusher arrangements, with the 13x5.5WEP mark indicating standard diameter and pitch. The wide blade concentrates area forward of the hub to increase low speed thrust and deliver a smoother throttle transition on rear-mounted motors.

Fitment is routine for experienced flyers: ensure rotation matches the required thrust direction, secure the prop with the proper nut or adapter, and perform a static balance before use. Aerodynamic changes from blade form and pitch affect acceleration, climb rate and idle handling - selecting this wider blade will alter throttle feel and the usable thrust range.

Before flight, check hub bore and thread fit against your motor shaft and adapter, verify clearance from the fuselage and control surfaces, and re-evaluate motor current and ESC thermal load after installation. Regularly inspect for damage; any compromised prop should be replaced to avoid excess vibration or loss of control.
