Aerodynamic Power PerformanceNext level electric glider blade design
The Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades deliver outstanding thrust and efficiency for high-performance electric glider setups. Engineered with an advanced CAMcarbon Z-profile, these RC airplane folding propellers fold extremely tight against the fuselage to minimize aerodynamic drag. Supplied as a factory-matched pair, they provide reliable performance and smooth operation during high-power climbs.
Engineered For Soaring FlightPrecision carbon blades for sailplanes
Designed specifically for demanding electric sailplanes and motor gliders, the Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades represent an evolution in folding propeller technology. Featuring an 8mm blade root, these blades fit seamlessly into standard CN spinners and precision aluminum hubs. The re-engineered root profile allows the blades to lay exceptionally flush against both contoured and box-shaped fuselages, eliminating parasitic drag in glide mode. Manufactured from high-rigidity carbon-reinforced plastic, these brushless motor propeller blades maintain pitch stability under heavy torque loads. Safe operation requires using a soft-start ESC configuration below the maximum specified limit of 9,000 RPM.

Frequently Asked QuestionsEverything you need to know
What hub root size is required for the Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades?
The Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades are designed to fit all standard folding propeller spinner hubs with an 8mm blade root opening.
What is the maximum RPM limit for the Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades?
The maximum permissible operating speed for these 16-inch diameter Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades is 9,000 RPM. Always verify your motor RPM before flight.
Do I need a soft-start ESC setting when using Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades?
Yes, operating the Aeronaut 16.5x15 CAM Folding Blades requires an ESC configured with a motor soft-start to prevent excessive rotational shock during motor startup.
