This 11x6 reverse/pusher propeller is supplied as an RC replacement for electric models using aft-facing or pusher prop layouts. The design aims to accommodate common electric configurations where the propeller faces rearward relative to the airframe.
Installation notes: verify hub compatibility with your motor shaft and fit appropriate securing hardware, confirm correct rotation and blade orientation for reverse or pusher use, and check clearance from fuselage and empennage before the first flight. Apply thread-lock to metal fasteners when subject to vibration, and follow standard prop mounting safety checks and pilot separation guidelines.
Tuning role: this prop affects thrust, the rotational load on the motor, and the airflow that reaches the tail in pusher arrangements. When matching motor KV and ESC, account for the 11x6 pitch impact on rpm and battery load. Balance the prop before flying to minimize vibration, and perform cautious throttle testing to ensure motor and ESC temperatures stay within safe limits.
Practical advice: where a spinner or shroud is used, confirm clearance and trim spinner bores accurately for a clean fit. In pusher layouts monitor how the prop wash interacts with control surfaces and the cooling flow to motor and ESC; consider deflectors or repositioning to optimise cooling and control responsiveness.
