CAMcarbon Z Folding Propellers

CAMcarbon folding propellers have been the standard in electric flight for many years. This is reason enough to further develop this series. The new Z propellers have been specifically optimized for closer folding against narrow glider fuselages. Even with box-shaped wooden fuselages, such as our models Triple, Helios, or Soleo, the new shape of the CAMcarbon Z allows for a significantly tighter fit of the blades against the fuselage.

The blades are compatible with all existing folding propeller systems designed for 8 mm blade roots. Therefore, the propellers can be easily used with our entire range of CN spinners and precision spinners.

However, the optimal results are achieved in combination with the Z spinners (CN). Depending on the fuselage, folding without an intermediate gap is possible, which not only enhances the aesthetics but also improves aerodynamic performance.

The profile section has been optimized in the root area. A carbon fiber reinforced plastic is used as the material.

The specified size of the folding propeller refers to the use of a hub with a diameter of 42 mm. When using smaller or larger hubs, the diameter and pitch will change accordingly.

Caution: The operation of folding propellers is only permissible up to the specified maximum RPM and in conjunction with a soft start of the motor. The permissible maximum RPM can be found on the packaging of the folding propeller.
