Sensenich Propeller with the world famous Art Mattson prop tip mod

Propeller: Sensenich 74-DM6-0-62
Pitched for cruise performance.

Sensenich Prop with Art Mattson Tip Mod (STC)
The reshaping of the tip reduces the tip turbulence that causes drag, making the propeller more efficient.  This modification is like getting more horsepower.
Typically after modifying the tips, two inches of pitch can be added without affecting the takeoff or climb performance.  The modification itself acts like adding an inch of pitch, therefore when repitching two inches it’s the same as re pitching three inches for cruise.  This converts to 4 to 6 mph.
Composite backing plate, mounting plate and spinner.
Very lightweight and saves on rotating mass.
