The Falcon 18x13 Wood Electric Propeller is designed for electric RC airplanes requiring a lightweight propeller with a higher-pitch blade profile. Compared with lower-pitch 18-inch propellers, the 13-inch pitch generally favors pitch speed and efficient forward flight when properly matched to the aircraft’s power system.
Falcon electric wood propellers are CNC-machined, manually finished, and balanced for consistent quality. Their lightweight beechwood construction reduces rotating mass and provides responsive acceleration for sport, precision, and aerobatic RC airplanes.
Falcon 18-Inch Electric Wood Propeller Guide
Increasing propeller pitch generally increases potential pitch speed, but it can also increase the load on the motor, ESC, and battery. Actual performance depends on the complete power system and aircraft.
| Propeller | Relative Pitch | General Tendency |
|---|---|---|
| 18x10 | Lower | Generally favors acceleration and lower-speed pull |
| 18x12 | Middle | Balance of acceleration and potential pitch speed |
| 18x13 — This Propeller | Higher | Generally favors pitch speed and forward-flight performance |
