  V-Pitch(R) Variable Pitch Prop System w/RimFire Motor

GPMG4501Outlandish, unheard-of aerobatics now possible!

Revolutionary variable pitch prop system allows for mid-air reverse-thrust -- making "stop-and-start" direction-changing maneuvers an exciting reality for experienced flat foam pilots!

  • The advanced push-pull design delivers nearly instantaneous throttle response; seven shielded ball bearings offer smooth, friction-free operation.
  • Unlike other systems, the V-Pitch is made of highly durable steel, aluminum and ABS materials, with symmetrical blades of fiber-reinforced nylon.
  • System comes with a high-efficiency RimFire brushless outrunner motor.
  • All mounting hardware is included for easy, drop-in installation or retro-fit; little airplane modification is required!
  • The V-Pitch system is ideal for all FlatOuts™ airplanes.
