Hi,

By reading A-6 rules, seems a vp hub with flat blades propeller is valid. There is a limit on special materials, but balsa, music wire and nylon screws arent any special and are enought for a vp hub.

26.6. The propeller shall be 6" maximum diameter with flat blades from balsa no thinner than 1/32".

Thanks for link Fred.
