Streamlined Glider PerformanceNext Generation Folding Propeller Design
The Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades represent an advanced evolution in RC glider efficiency, engineered specifically for high-performance electric soaring. Featuring an updated Z-profile geometry, these folding propeller blades lay tighter against narrow and box-shaped fuselages to dramatically reduce aerodynamic drag during unpowered glide phases.
Precision German EngineeringOptimized Aerodynamics For Electric Soaring
Designed for serious electric sailplane enthusiasts, the Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades combine high-grade carbon fiber reinforced plastic with an optimized blade root design. These durable carbon fiber propeller blades fit standard 8mm root yokes, providing exceptional thrust and efficiency when driven by modern brushless motor power systems. Engineered to achieve gapless folding against the fuselage, they significantly improve your sailplane's aerodynamic glide ratio. To preserve blade integrity and safety, always operate your electric RC plane setup with a soft-start motor configuration within the maximum 13,000 RPM specification.

Frequently Asked QuestionsEverything you need to know
What is the maximum RPM limit for Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades?
The Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades have a maximum safe operating limit of 13,000 RPM. Always configure your electronic speed control (ESC) with a soft start to prevent RPM shock spikes.
How many blades come in a package of Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades?
Every package of Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades includes a factory-matched set of two (2) propeller blades.
What root size do the Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades require?
These blades feature a standard 8mm root thickness, allowing them to mount to standard yokes and aluminum folding prop hubs designed for 8mm blade roots.
How does the Z-design improve the performance of Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades?
The modified Z-profile shape brings the folding blades closer to the fuselage contour when folded back, eliminating air gaps and significantly reducing parasite drag during unpowered glides.
How does middle piece size affect the dimensions of Aeronaut 12.0 x 6.0 CAM Carbon Z Folding Blades?
The listed 12x6 pitch and diameter ratings assume a standard 42mm center yoke piece. Installing a smaller or larger yoke will proportionally decrease or increase the effective diameter and pitch.
