RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

I made that question because if the prop was to be painted, rebalancing the prop again is too time consuming. Graupner has specific instructions regarding their props.

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

JKR..................Graupner props are made in Germany, not in Ontario. I suppose that is why they're a bit more expensive. I use a Graupner 3-blade on the H9 Corsair.

Graupners are not cheap and sometimes they're hard to find. For 2-blade props i use APC. I don't use MA so i cannot make any comparisons in regard to pricing 3/2 blade props. APC and Graupner...
