any questions or comments ?
and remember noise is energy and if you can hear it you're losing it.

I like it! Simple, what should be obvious, but I had always just cut the whole slot bigger. I'll have to try that next time I do a mid mount for a prop.

Very nice!

I always hate that pusher sound props and their noises!
I usually fly at a local airfield with some others right next to a zoo and the director of the zoo always keep telling us off for that and kicking us off of his field. This should make a significant change to it. And it is a simple but useful thing to do!

Thanks for posting this!

Amazing! I will try that on my (future) Bixler!

UPDATE: FlyingMonkey told me this wouldn't work on the Bixler.

This should only work for flat foamies.

Me FAIL.

yeah but ditching the factory Bixler prop and going with an APC 6x4 will cut the noise in half for ya.

I actually bought that prop. SO cheap!

I've been away for a while and going over plans and builds on the site and forum I think I need to bump this and help with speed and performance
