Falcon 14x8 Wood Electric Propeller
The Falcon 14x8 Wood Electric Propeller is designed for electric RC airplanes that need a combination of useful thrust and stronger forward-speed potential. Its 14-inch diameter and 8-inch pitch make it a suitable choice for compatible sport, aerobatic, precision, and performance-oriented electric aircraft.
Made from German beechwood, this two-blade propeller offers lightweight construction, a carefully finished aerodynamic profile, and responsive power delivery. Each Falcon wood propeller is individually inspected and factory balanced, although a final balance check should always be performed before installation.
📏 Falcon 14-Inch Electric Propeller Pitch Guide
Propeller pitch affects acceleration, forward-speed potential, and power-system load. Lower-pitch propellers generally favor acceleration and lower-speed pull, while higher-pitch propellers can provide greater forward-speed potential when properly matched to the aircraft and power system.
| Propeller Size | General Application | General Tendency |
|---|---|---|
| 14x6 | Sport, aerobatic, and general electric flying | Emphasis on acceleration and lower-speed pull |
| 14x7 | Sport and precision electric aircraft | Balance of acceleration and forward speed |
| 14x8 (This Model) | Faster sport and performance-oriented setups | Greater forward-speed potential with increased motor load |
✅ Good Applications:
- Electric sport airplanes
- Aerobatic RC aircraft
- Precision and pattern-style models
- Scale electric airplanes requiring additional cruise speed
- Performance-oriented electric power systems
⚡ 14x8 Electric Flight Characteristics
The 8-inch pitch gives the Falcon 14x8 greater theoretical pitch-speed potential than the lower-pitch propellers in Falcon’s 14-inch electric wood range. Actual flight performance will depend on motor KV, battery voltage, operating RPM, aircraft weight, and aerodynamic design.
- 14-inch diameter and 8-inch pitch
- Lightweight German beechwood construction
- Two-blade electric-aircraft design
- Aerodynamic blade profile
- Individually inspected and factory balanced
- Low rotating mass for responsive power changes
- Finished natural-wood appearance
⚖️ Why Choose the Falcon 14x8?
The Falcon 14x8 is worth considering when a compatible electric aircraft needs more pitch and forward-speed potential than a 14x6 or 14x7. Its lightweight beechwood construction also helps maintain responsive throttle characteristics without the rotating mass of some heavier propeller materials.
- Highest-pitch option in Falcon’s 14-inch electric wood range
- Suitable for compatible sport and aerobatic aircraft
- Greater cruise-speed potential than lower-pitch alternatives
- Lightweight construction helps limit rotating mass
- Designed specifically for electric RC airplanes

💡 Modeler’s Tip
If changing from a 14x6 or 14x7 to the 14x8, do not assume the existing power system can safely handle the additional pitch. Measure current draw at full throttle and confirm that the motor, ESC, and battery remain within their rated limits.
