You will not find better customer service than Prince Props. The P-Tip is a work of art. I highly recommend Mr. Prince and his Company!

When I installed the CRUISE prop my T/O roll increased by about 100', climb rate dropped to about 500-600 ft/min but cruise increased to a solid 145 TAS at 30" MAP.

Are these cruise numbers MPH or KTS?
