High Performance PropulsionEfficiency and precision for electric flight
The Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades deliver outstanding thrust and efficiency for high-performance RC gliders and electric sailplanes. Engineered with carbon-fiber reinforced composite material, these folding propeller blades fold flush against slender glider fuselages to dramatically minimize aerodynamic drag. Designed to fit standard 8mm blade root middle pieces, they are an essential upgrade for pilots seeking optimal climbing efficiency and thermal performance.
Advanced Aerodynamics DesignPrecision engineered electric sailplane prop blades
Designed specifically for high-efficiency electric flight, the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades feature an optimized root section and refined blade geometry for maximum power delivery. Crafted from ultra-durable carbon-fiber reinforced plastic, these light folding propeller blades retain structural rigidity even under intense motor power. Their innovative profile allows the blades to rest tighter against the fuselage while gliding, minimizing drag and improving unpowered thermal soaring. Perfectly tuned for use with a 42mm middle piece and compatible with CN spinners, the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades ensure clean aerodynamic performance and reliable thrust on every launch.

Frequently Asked QuestionsEverything you need to know
What is included in the box with the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades?
Every package of the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades includes a factory-matched pair of two propeller blades.
What blade root size do the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades require?
The Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades feature a standard 8mm blade root with a 3mm mounting hole, fitting standard folding propeller hubs and middle pieces.
How is the diameter of the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades calculated?
The 17x13 dimension rating for the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades is based on mounting the blades onto a standard 42mm center middle piece. Using a wider or narrower middle piece will alter both effective diameter and pitch.
What is the maximum recommended RPM for the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades?
For safety and performance, the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades should not exceed approximately 8,000 to 9,000 RPM, and should always be operated using a motor controller with soft-start enabled.
Why do the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades feature a Z-blade profile?
The optimized Z-profile allows the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades to fold closer against narrow sailplane fuselages, drastically reducing aerodynamic drag while soaring.
Can the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades be used on non-Aeronaut spinner hubs?
Yes, the Aeronaut 17x13 CAM Folding Blades will fit any brand of folding prop middle piece as long as it accommodates an 8mm blade root and a 3mm pivot pin.
