So first let me say, I am a DUC propeller owner. I currently have the 3-blade Flash Black-M ground adjustable on my KitFox 7 (Rotax 912ULS) and I LOVE IT! The ease and speed of adjustment is simply amazing. If I said it took 1 minute to adjust the pitch on all 3 blades ~ I’d be lying. It’s takes about 30 seconds. And just as important to me is DUC’s customer service. Gaetan Fouozing is THE MAN! So professional, so responsive and so knowledgeable. He is an absolute pleasure to do business with!

Looking at the flash for my Kitfox 7 with 912uls. Still happy? Have you tried other props NR or whirlwind? Thanks

@@cnoz7247 - I bought the plane with a ground adjustable Whirlwind and honestly, I didn’t have enough experience with the KitFox to render the Whirlwind a proper judgement. I was just eager for more thrust, better climb rate, faster cruise. When I first heard about the unique design of the DUC and it’s ability to essentially “mimic” a constant speed prop, I had to try it. Very glad I did!

what's interesting is the fixed pitch prop that has the constant speed effect! is it because the blade flexes or is it purely aerodynamics?

Very interesting. Are you going to find owners and users of these propellers to see what they say about performance, etc? I noticed he mentioned both constant speed as well as the ground adjustable pitch propellers and helicopter and gyroplane rotor blades.They have an interesting website providing much more information and a tool for suggesting the correct blades. Nice.

Viking Aircraft Engines out of Florida, does a lot of work with Duc props. Viking designed a very interesting in flight adjustable/constant speed system using Duc props with their engines. They have a KZfaq channel.

A propeller is just like a wing, I wanted to know about the shape, at the root. center, tip, and the twist and weight. How it cuts thorough and moves the air compared to everything else out there. He just didn't give us much info at all. 8( Sorry. --gary

Great Video! I've looked on DUC's website, both US and France, for a comparison of the different Blade Families. (i.e. Flash, Swirl, WindSpoon, etc.) Why would I chose one over the other?

It depend of ur aircraft, engine, speed, STOL performance as you like. The best way is to ask DUC USA or the office in France

Even though these are top quality products, I've always considered the term "Forged carbon" a misnomer. It sounds great/tough but in no way could anything in carbon fibre processing be considered as forging.

@LTVoyager 3 жыл бұрын

This is a nice video, but a fantastic video would be if he had actually showed how to install blades in the hub and then what it takes to do an adjustment on a ground adjustable prop. The extra few minutes this would have added to the video would have been hugely valuable and good marketing for DUC, unless these tasks are much harder than he is saying in which case I understand why he did not want to show us!

Not a helpful video unfortunately. The presenter just kept repeating platitudes. As builders, we want actionable information, not tradenames and statements like "we make propellers to suit customer preferences". As a builder I want guidance, not platitudes.

What about 5 bladed DUC and VIP, I waited but no showing? Pricing? An ok video, but very little meat this time Bryan. A little repetitive and lacking detail. I am looking to put a 5 bladed on a Viking 195 with VIP. So, other than DUC in Sebring, this video tells me nothing!
