Hi all,

As the propeller rule is a clearly defined rule, I can repeat it
here. For several years it has been the same. "The propeller must be
a single two-bladed commercially made plastic propeller". Any
modification such as trimming, shaving, twisting and adding a bushing
is allowed as long as the prop stays in one piece. The only thing
that changes from year to year is the maximum diameter.
