Falcon 20x12 Carbon Fiber Gas Propeller
The Falcon 20x12 Carbon Fiber Gas Propeller is designed for high-performance RC airplanes requiring excellent forward speed, strong top-end performance, and smooth throttle response. The 20-inch diameter combined with a 12-inch pitch makes this propeller an excellent choice for aerobatic aircraft, warbirds, and sport gas airplanes where higher airspeed and efficient performance are important.
Constructed from lightweight carbon fiber, the Falcon 20x12 provides excellent rigidity and reduced blade flex under load. This helps improve throttle precision, efficiency, and smooth operation while maintaining the lightweight characteristics Falcon propellers are known for.
✅ Recommended Applications:
- Sport gas airplanes
- Warbirds
- Aerobatic RC aircraft
- Precision flying setups
- 35cc to 50cc class RC airplanes
⚠ Engine Compatibility & Safety Note:
The Falcon 20x12 is commonly used on high-performance gas engine setups, including many 35cc to 50cc class engines, depending on aircraft type, airframe weight, and flying style.
Always verify recommended propeller sizing from your engine manufacturer before installation.

💡 Modeler’s Tip
A higher-pitch propeller such as the 20x12 is typically selected when increased forward speed and stronger top-end performance are desired. Higher-pitch propellers can increase engine load, so proper engine tuning and cooling are important.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Falcon 20x12 Carbon Fiber Propeller best used for?
The Falcon 20x12 Carbon Fiber Propeller is best suited for sport gas airplanes, warbirds, and aerobatic aircraft requiring strong forward speed and efficient high-performance flying.
What does 20x12 mean on an RC propeller?
The first number, 20, is the propeller diameter in inches. The second number, 12, is the pitch in inches. Higher-pitch propellers generally provide more forward speed while increasing engine load.
Is the Falcon 20x12 good for aerobatic flying?
Yes. The Falcon 20x12 works well for precision aerobatic flying and high-speed sport flying where smooth throttle response and strong top-end performance are desired.
How is a 20x12 different from a 20x10 propeller?
A 20x12 propeller generally provides higher forward speed and stronger top-end performance, while a 20x10 propeller usually provides quicker acceleration and lighter engine load.
Does this propeller come pre-balanced?
Yes. Falcon carbon fiber propellers are factory pre-balanced and hand inspected.
What size is the center hole?
The center hole is drilled to 10mm (0.394" / 25/64").
