AeroNaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades (723434)
In Stock
The Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades deliver outstanding thrust and aerodynamic efficiency for high-performance RC gliders and sailplanes. Specially designed with an optimized root area, these carbon-reinforced folding blades fold exceptionally tight against narrow or wooden fuselages to minimize drag during glide phases. Compatible with all standard 8mm root yokes, they represent the gold standard in RC airplane folding propellers.
Engineered for maximum efficiency and minimal in-flight resistance, the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades feature an updated profile section specifically optimized at the blade root. Constructed from high-grade plastic composite reinforced with carbon fibers, these blades provide exceptional structural rigidity while maintaining a lightweight profile. When paired with Aeronaut Z-spinners or standard 42mm middle pieces, the blades rest smoothly against fuselage contours, eliminating performance-robbing intermediate gaps. Operating up to a maximum permissible speed of 13,000 RPM with a required motor soft-start, this matched blade set ensures rapid climbs and clean soaring for your electric RC glider.
What is the maximum RPM limit for the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades?
The maximum permissible speed for the 11-inch Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades is 13,000 RPM. Always ensure your electronic speed controller is configured with a soft-start function to prevent root stress.
What blade root size do the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades require?
The Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades feature an 8mm blade root, making them directly compatible with standard 8mm folding prop middle pieces and Aeronaut CN or Z-spinners.
How many blades are included with the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades?
Each package of the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades contains one matched pair (2 blades total).
How does middle piece size affect the performance of the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades?
The 11x12 specification for the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades is calculated using a standard 42mm middle piece. Utilizing a smaller or larger yoke will proportionally alter both the effective diameter and pitch.
Are the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades suitable for narrow glider fuselages?
Yes, these blades feature an optimized root shape designed specifically to fold flush against narrow round or box-shaped glider fuselages, eliminating gaps to reduce aerodynamic drag.
Can I use the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades without a motor soft-start feature?
No, operating the Aeronaut 11x12 CAM Carbon Folding Blades requires a soft-start motor configuration to avoid abrupt torque loads that can damage the folding propeller mechanism.
