The Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades deliver superior aerodynamic efficiency for high-performance RC electric gliders and sailplanes. Designed to fold seamlessly against narrow aircraft fuselages, these high-grade composite blades minimize drag when soaring unpowered. Supplied as a matched pair, the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades offer exceptional thrust and reliability for competitive thermal soaring.
Engineered for maximum thrust and minimal drag, the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades represent the benchmark in RC airplane folding propeller technology. Constructed from high-rigidity carbon fiber reinforced plastic, these propeller blades resist flexing under heavy motor torque, delivering optimal power transfer across the entire throttle range. The optimized root geometry allows the blades to fold exceptionally close to glider fuselages, drastically reducing parasitic drag during glide phases. Designed for 8mm root mounts, these blades perform best paired with Z-spinners or precision CN middle pieces. To ensure safe operation, always utilize a soft-start ESC program and adhere strictly to the 9,000 RPM maximum rotation threshold designed for this 16-inch diameter setup.
How many blades are included with the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades?
Each package of the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades includes one matched pair (2 blades total).
What is the maximum safe RPM for the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades?
The maximum permissible operating speed for the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades is 9,000 RPM. Never exceed this limit.
What blade root width do the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades use?
The Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades feature a standard 8mm root width, making them compatible with most standard folding propeller yokes and spinners.
What ESC settings are required for the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades?
You must use a soft-start setting on your Electronic Speed Control (ESC) when running the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades to prevent excessive startup torque stress on the blade roots.
How does middle piece yoke sizing affect the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades?
The 16x10 rating of the Aeronaut 16x10 CAM Folding Blades is based on a standard 42mm middle piece yoke. Using a wider or narrower yoke will slightly alter the final diameter and pitch.
