I've seen some comparisons between the Whirlwind 200RV and Hartzell BA Aluminum prop, but has anyone done an "apples to apples" comparison of the Whirlwind 200RV 2-blade composite prop and the Hartzell C2YR-1N/N7605-4 2-blade composite prop?
I am at the point of making a prop choice for my RV-7 with an IO-360 (180 hp engine) and am on the fence between the Whirlwind WW200RV prop, Hartzell C2YR-1N/N7605-4 Composite prop, and the Hartzell C2YR-1BFP/F7497-2 Blended Airfoil Aluminum prop. All are 72" props, suitable for the RV-7.
I realize the price and weight differences, but any suggestions based on other criteria? Has anyone done any comparative analyses?
