The Ivo prob is loud and not really efficient.? We have Jabirus at
the airport with Bolly Props ??
So far, I have found only a few options for the Jabiru 2200
powered x-air for a propeller. Prices are USD and as of Feb
2022.
Sensenich makes a ground adjustable model and a wooden prop.
Adjustable is about $2000, wooden about $1200 with a 6 week
wait.
Ivoprop says their 2 blade medium option will work, $1000, and
is available now. I think a 62" might be best in this option
since as I understand it, the blades have less resistance than
wood so you can swing a slightly larger prop.
Culver props will make one for me with a 4 month waitlist for
$650
Performance Propellers USA will make a wooden one with an
8-month wait, $850
Bolly does not make a prop for the 2200, but hoverhawk will
make a wooden one in 3 weeks for $1200.
Aero performance in NZ will make a wooden one for about $1600.
Not sure about the lead time. (super nice fellow)
DUC prop makes an adjustable model available for around $2200.
Jabiru makes a wood prop and composite options, however, those
are actually made of unobtainium as far as I can tell.
Warp drive refuses to make a propeller for Jab 2200s after some
rather nasty failures.
Whirlwind also no longer makes jabiru props.
I'm leaning towards the IvoProp or Sensenich wood in 60x38 at
the moment. I like the idea of the ivo being adjustable, (and
how easy it is to adjust) but I'm not sure about it given the
issues Warp had. I haven't seen anyone else running that
combination but I'm guessing it's out there.
Does anyone know of any other options I missed, or have any
suggestions?
Thanks,
Tom
