One thing at a time!
Let me finish the tube that I have been bragging about!
The first mold has been completed.
I am very, very close. Stay tuned!
A breakthrough is in the works!
I like your positive attitude! Ciao, Phedon.

VP's have the drawback that when the pitch changes from the design value, the efficiency of prop comes considerably down. Flying an F1D for 50min plus on SS rubber would indicate that you have been able to build a prop that has high efficiency on a large range of pitch values. No-one has so far been able to do that.
