Ikara is still around, but there is nothing "stock" in this size range. Last year we cut up Ikara's and put them on a Gowen hub. Tried that this year, too little left, wasting a lot of $$. Since they are so small, they fit on a Solo cup, and the weight was about the same. Yes, you can still get Ikara's, but have to butcher them substantially.

Just wondering, are "Ikara ??" props still around ? Way back when i was mentoring SO wright stuff, we could buy those, really light sheet plastic.

FWIW, on my DD types, there is a definite "sweet spot" in the trim, higher attack angle - you can see the model struggling, too low and just flys too fast.
