I have been talking to Flipsky and they said the 12mm shaft is threaded and they will be ready to ship on Apr 20.

What is the right flipsky motor for the FR prop? 100kv or 120kv for a 12S battery setup and a 200A flipsky VESC?

Black one is mine! Donā€™t touch it folks :slight_smile:

Great pic David!
Not regretting the gold choice seing them finished, now ship it express to sweden!
The watertemp might raise all the way to 8degrees this weekend so itā€™s time :slight_smile:

I also want to acquire an FR propeller, then mounted on a 120 KV FLIPSKY motor with a shaft diameter
12 mm, how does the propeller lock?

David,
Please let me know if you put together another order for folding props. Iā€™ll take one, possibly two.

@Flying_Rodeo, Iā€™m very impressed with your work! I would also like to buy a prop for the Flipsky motor. How soon do you think you can make us another batch?

@Flying_Rodeo, same as @Telejacket and @Gliderpilot, I will be delighted to be able to order you a prop. Let me know. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the hub file. Iā€™m going to print it with 0 infill. Then see what modifications I need to do to make it fit between the FR prop and the 65161. Then I will probably print the duct also.

I see questions that indicate that the FR prop was available in 6" and 7" pitch. How do you tell? I just got mine from the latest batch David made. It is beautiful.

I have both. I had to get the calipers out to tell the difference. Very had to tell by eye if you dont know the subtle differences. The prop David is making for the flipsky motor is a 6 Inch.

Was in Fusion when you posted this. Ive altered the STL so it might fit the flipsky now. :crossed_fingers:

EDIT: These ones only fit one of the flipsky motors. Better STL below in the thread that fits both.

Today I went out and did see between 22 and 24 kmh about 1400 watt. With a a cut down 5 pitch alu prop. If I order the 6 pitch from flying rodeo, what can I expect ? 1200 watt with same speed ?

I think you are pretty close with that 1200watts but it totally depends on the riding conditionsā€¦

I did a ride yesterday. The prop is a blast. On my 100kv Flipsky it is absolutely silent. The whole system, FESC200a and FS 65161 runs smooth as butter. No advertising here, do not get me wrong. I am just happy with the result and I bet other setups are truly comparable. The torque from this prop especially for initial acceleration is very good and helps me lift off very fast. I was going around 30km/h, I think there was still some room.
