Prop for RV7..Need a new one?
There’s a lot to consider when choosing CSU or fixed pitch. I would not change the CSU prop on my 8, but fixed pitch may be more suitable for a lighter 9.

What were the respective take off distances and climb performances? how much easier was it to slow down the CSU aircraft on approach? What were the fuel consumption figures at cruise speeds. How much is slightly faster when wound right out? Were these aircraft identical in all other respects?
