Category description: Propellers for model aeroplanes

In the fascinating world of model flying, propellers are essential to optimise the performance and control of your aircraft. Our wide range of propellers gives you the opportunity to find the perfect balance between performance, efficiency and aesthetics for your model aeroplane.

Wood propellers:

Wooden propellers have been tried and tested for decades and are popular with model pilots due to their natural aesthetics and smooth sound. They are made from high-quality wood and offer a variety of advantages and disadvantages:

Advantages:
1.Acoustics: wooden propellers produce a pleasant and authentic sound during flight, which enriches the flying experience.
2. balance: thanks to their lightness and strength, wooden propellers offer an excellent balance between performance and reliability.
3. visual appeal: The natural texture and appearance of wood gives your model aeroplane a classic and appealing look.
4. environmental friendliness: Wooden propellers are often more environmentally friendly compared to plastic alternatives, as they are made from a sustainable raw material.

Disadvantages:
1.Sensitivity: wooden propellers can be more sensitive to damage from hard landings or collisions.
2. maintenance: They may require a little more maintenance to maintain their performance and aesthetics, especially if they get wet.

Plastic propellers:

Plastic propellers offer a modern alternative to wood and are made from sturdy plastic materials. They are popular in the modelling community due to their versatility and durability:

Advantages:
1.Durability: plastic propellers are often tougher and more resistant to damage, making them ideal for demanding flying conditions.
2.lightweight construction: They are lighter than wooden propellers and can therefore improve the performance and efficiency of your model aircraft.
3. versatility: Plastic propellers are available in different sizes and designs to meet the individual requirements of different aircraft.
4. low maintenance: In general, plastic propellers require less maintenance and are less sensitive to moisture and environmental influences.

Disadvantages:
1.Sound: some model pilots prefer the sound of wooden propellers and find the sound of plastic propellers less appealing.
2. aesthetics: Although plastic propellers are functional, some modellers may prefer the natural aesthetics of wood.
