John,
In your reply you mentioned Randy used a reconditioned prop. I thought
the Hartzel for the RV10 was a new design and there were no "used"
propellers available. Is there any more information about possible
reconditioned options?

I am just speaking from old experience, but I thought I remembered that
Randy had a new prop, but got it before the blended airfoil was available.
I remember the discussion about his speed being a little less because of the
older style, but I don't specifically remember if it was new or
reconditioned, and John would know that better, of course. The props I have
looked at and talked to people about, used and reconditioned, were pushing
the same price that Van's sells them for, so it was a no brainer to me, but
saving $1,000 is saving $1,000 when budget is that major.

Hello, I am back from Vacation. I have a rebuilt early prop. The same
one that was on the prototype RV10 when it first flew. I paid 3500.00
outright and had to wait 7 months for the rebuilder to get a nice set of
blades in. He had a nice used hub in stock. Randy

Hi Randy,
That amount of savings sound worth looking into. So is you prop a
Hartzell C2YR-1BFP/F8068D or a different model?

I have the number at the hanger. Your number is close. It is an 80" with
a short hub. Randy

Randy points to an excellent path. Until the blades disappear like the
IO-540 blocks. Consider reconditioned. VAN holds a spot for you for a
new set of scimitar blades and a new Lycoming when you are ready to step
UP and options are gone.
Be realistic - recycle.
