I had the wood sensenich prop and it broke while I was flying (I was one of the customers Kimberly mentioned). It was totally scary, but thanks to luck going my way, everything worked out ok. We put on the warp prop and so far, so good. I like that we can put pitch in and out to help get best performance out of engine. As a novice, the guidance and assistance I've received from motionaero since I'm a novice to this type of stuff has been incredibel and invaluable.
On another note, thanks to the group for the input on the auxiliary gas tank from all of you. I flew my first flight today to test it out and it worked well. I can hardly wait to pass by the airport I normally have to stop at because of the extra gas. Thanks all

We've had two customers that purchased aircraft with wood Sensenich props, and both came apart without warning. Jabirus turn the prop 800 RPM higher than Rotax, which is significant, and something to keep in mind. We worked with Warp Drive to customize the diameter, length and shape of the taper-tip prop to provide the best performance for Jabirus, and they work better than any other prop we've tried.
