AeroNaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades (723448)
In Stock
The Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades deliver superior aerodynamic performance and reduced drag for high-efficiency RC gliders and sailplanes. Constructed from high-strength carbon-fiber reinforced plastic, these blades fold tightly against the fuselage to optimize gliding efficiency when the motor is stopped.
Engineered for high-rpm brushless motor power systems, the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades feature an optimized blade profile in the root area to maximize thrust and reduce power consumption. These blades are designed to fit standard 8mm blade root spinners, including Aeronaut CN and Z-spinners, providing seamless integration on narrow glider hulls. Built for high performance, they require a soft-start ESC program and support maximum rotational speeds up to 13,000 RPM to ensure safe and efficient high-altitude soaring.
What is the maximum recommended RPM for the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades?
The Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades have a strict maximum speed limit of 13,000 RPM. Operating above this limit can cause severe damage or structural failure.
What blade root size do the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades require?
The Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades are designed with a standard 8mm blade root width, fitting all standard spinners and yokes designed for 8mm roots.
How many blades are included with the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades?
Each package of the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades includes one matched pair (2 individual blades).
Is a soft-start required when using the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades?
Yes, operating the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades requires setting a soft-start parameter on your electronic speed controller (ESC) to prevent excessive rotational torque on startup.
How is the size of the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades measured?
The 12x7 size rating of the Aeronaut 12x7 CAM Folding Blades is specified using a standard 42mm middle piece. Changing the middle piece size will alter the overall diameter and pitch.
