Hi all,
So having recently acquired a new engine (MZ 34) I am in search for a new propeller. There are lots of paramotor propellers available, at attractive prices, however being that ppg's fly at such low speeds, I am reluctant to order one before I find out about the pitch values.
Has anyone been able to find out what the actual pitch is of an average ppg prop? I am looking i to e-prop specifically made for mz34, but then again, who is to guarantee it has enough pitch to produce usable thrust at the needed speed?
The only fixed wing ultralights that have successfully used ppg props are some of the Mike Sandlins designs, likely due to ultra slow speed of the motorfloaters.
