I'm building a 701 w/Rotax 912/Warp Drive 3-blade prop.  Looking for a

spinner.  Would appreciate any tips, brands, etc.  I'm going to the Super

Sale at Aircraft Spruce East this Saturday so hopefully I can get one there

unless someone knows of a better deal.



As always, thanks.

For my 701, 912ULS, Three blade Warp Drive prop, I chose the 5 inch HPL 

aluminum spinner from Warp Drive. About $85. 



Main reason was clearance for cooling air flow, the 9 inch spinner greatly 

blocks the cowl opening, also the 5 inch spinner comes with an aluminum plate 

needed for the prop inst. other spinners I considered had fiber glass mounting 

plates. I liked the alum plate.



I spoke with Darrell at Warp Drive, (614) 357 6000. Seems that about half of 

701 builders buy the 9 inch, half buy the 5 inch.



For prop pitch adjustment, the 5 inch spinner does not cover the hub pitch 

bolts, I like that feature as well.



Info as you requested.



Jerry

I'm using a 9" UHS spinner with a 3-blade WarpDrive/912UL on C-IGGY,

and am very happy with it. See
