APC Props
AP-12038SF
This is the APC 12x3.8 Slow Flyer Propeller, a specialized propeller designed for slow and precise flying. Manufactured using the pultrusion process, APC propellers exhibit a higher fiber (60%) to resin (nylon binder) density, resulting in substantially improved strength and stiffness compared to glass-filled nylon alternatives. This increased stiffness effectively controls vibration resonance response, while the higher strength allows for the use of thinner cross-sections, delivering notable benefits in terms of weight reduction and enhanced aerodynamic efficiency.
Key Features:
• Computer-optimized design ensures a thinner profile and enhanced bite, while minimizing noise production
• Lightweight molded nylon construction significantly reduces rotating mass, unlocking higher power output and extending the
propeller's operational lifespan
• Reinforcing fibers maintain a consistent and accurate pitch at any RPM, ensuring reliable performance throughout
