Whats the scoop on XOAR Carbon Fiber Tips props? I here this is a great prop for 3d. How does it compare to the Mejzlik 27x10TH prop (DA100).

What was interesting was that when i spoke with Xoar (booth) yesterday and they told me that the carbon tip prop was not a good prop for 3d????? they tried to sell me another 3d prop.

i have heard it spools up a little too slow like most carbon props

What prop did they recommend?

GmanBill says he likes the Eaglenose carbon props becasue they allow his plane to slip easier in a hover so his transition to geting the plane to hold in the hover is nicer.

Xoar was promoting the PJE 3D Beechwood prop for 3D flying @ the ama show. They claimed the carbon fiber tip was not intended for 3D flying.

I'll purchase one later down the road and try for myself.

Those Xoar props that I picked up from Bill are real nice. All the guys keep making comments on how pretty they look, I like them.

I love the Eagle nose for 3D, they work great and I guess the manufacturer doesn't know that they have a great product there. It is real nice for low speed, it works better than the one they say is great, I have almost every prop they make and have tried them all one time or another. And for spooling, I have seen no adverse or slower spooling, if anything it seems to spool better than the wide ones.
