 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
It means that there's a different company building a prop that isn't related to this one at all.

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
I just saw on facebook that people are getting their props in the mail from PD. Waiting for a review, especially on top end speed, when someone gets to run one...

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
I believe they still have some fine tuning to work on the top end. I should have mine any day now. I'll post a before and after.

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
I thought about calling of and getting them to send me some gears from a Gen 2. Idk if that would even work or what kind of gains you would see but I know they changed the ratio from Gen 2 to the Gen 3

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
It's the 2:1 reduction the prop is spinning slower that's why they're to get the prop situation fixed to make up the speed loss. Nothing to do with the clutch.

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
You can't swap the gears. The LU knuckle is different. It's internally larger for the bigger ring gear.

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
I didn't know of that was possible either I just knew there was a different reduction and it would make since to me to possibly be in the gears just a thought I had. But ya anyone got the scope on the knew prop yet. Thinking bout getting one but don't wanna waste the money if there art any gains

 Re: ProDrive 2-Blade Gen 3 Prop
I'm still trying to figure out whey they changed the lower units from the Gen 2, I haven't really heard negative things about this Gen 3's but I feel like more people would rather the Gen 3 over the Gen 3. I wish yhey would leave the Gen 2 option out there if you wanted to special order one. Bc when I eventually have to get another I would want another Gen 2
