 I am trying to get some feedback on putting an IVO Prop- Magnum (electric constant speed) on my RV8A with IO360A1A- 200 hp engine.
Anyone have any experience with this prop? ts lighter and less expensive than the hartzell. Has anyone heard anything good or bad about it?
Thanks,
Neil (NYC)

Google "IVO prop" and "Lycoming" and you will get a lot of
interesting hits. Mostly unfavorable stuff, but a lot of it is
dated. I'm running a Whirlwind 151 which was a little expensive but
is very lightweight and smooth. I know that some builders with auto
conversions are pleased with the IVO but I'm not aware of any with
long-term experience on a Lycoming, in particular the IO-360.

You occasionally see used Hartzell props at very reasonable prices,
if that's the primary consideration.

I'd feel a lot better with a FP wood prop if I wanted cheap and
lightweight, or the whirlwind if I just wanted lightweight.

My $.02
