good work,
can you share the link for the propeller?
@Jezza yes got mine for 406€ with 2.25 liters resin on aliexpress shipped from Germany to France in 1 week. 1 Liter (1kg) is 50-60€
@philippe not sure i want to share the file because i copied Flying Rodeo’s idea. I made it myself because i don’t want to spend so much for a propeller
Your next challenge is to copy the Lift folding prop then

I think it’s not a big challenge, just need some dimensions (pitch, height, radius). I imagine the blades are coming out thanks to rotating inertia? or is it a hidden mechanism that push them out ?
Yeah I would imagine so… Here are a couple of images of others that show some interesting techniques: Boat propeller - S4 - Seahawk - folding / propeller shaft / 2-blade

You’ll have to guess…
The LIFT folding prop is a simple and effective design as you can see on the vid.
Seems that you have the perfect SLA printer to reach the target, perfect surface and high density material…
Amazingly, folding prop blades (including LIFT’s) are straight (not as FR), I suppose it is to offer more apparent surface, therefore more pressure, to water flow when not in rotation.
can you explain how to detach the fins on fusion 360?
@jezza & @SoEFoil thanks for the usefull links and analysis. I can try to model something 
@philippe sorry i made it on Solidworks, i’m not familiar with fusion 360
Nice propeller shape! What is the static thrust of the propeller? Unfortunately, it is very likely that the blades will break.
I have absolutely no idea

It should have enough power! I forgot I stripped the heatshrink off the connectors. Just put some new heatshrink on or solder the cables directly. The prop looks nice!
I have just ordered a beastly 110mm cleaver prop (racing) for my setup. It’s going to be very interesting how it will run!
What is your pitch? and final rpm ? I tried some custom 110mm it need a really high pitch
Prop is designed for 7000 -12000 RPM. Same dimensions as the prop that was used on the electric surfboard that hit 48kph+. On a foil it should be quite a bit faster than that.
Oh yeah 
I read somewhere the factory stopped producing. How did you got it ?
Here ? https://www.prop-shop.co.uk/
The shop burned back in 2017 when i wanted to start my built , it seems open now !
@maxime_ecn , you should have enough power
Nice, i’m curious about this propeller, keep us updated

It’s quite a power-hungry prop, but with a foil it should be a bit different beast altogether.
One recommendation for your setup is to make sure both the gear and motor are properly heatsinked. I noticed when I tested the setup that both produce a bit of heat. I had started cutting the aluminium pieces, but never finished.
where did you purchase that green prop ?
it looks very nice
Hi, i made it myself with my 3D printer. Not tested yet
