I'm rebuilding a couple of Gavins that use the Tekna/Mako style clutch and prop assemblies and am woundering about my prop options since theirs are toast?
Can anyone here shed some light on the diffirences between the AJ clutches, HD Delrin Clutch, Standard Mako Clutch, Dive X replacment clutch and prop assembly, regular plastic blades, pinned plastic blades and aluminum blades? I'm also intrested in the Prop-X, but it's not an option for me to give up having a clutch on these. Also, any other options I have not listed and may not be aware of.
Motors are strong and I'm curious about thoughts on best match for their strength.
I have a high RPM Tekna with aluminum blades, have the plastic blades for it as well, and have ordered one of the Dive X kits so I can do some compairison testing, but haven't gotten to it yet. I'll probably just swap out blades on the same DPV and thrust test with fresh batteries. That will give me a clue on power, but am also cutious about battery life and such.
Thanks for sharing if anyone has some knowledge to share.
