The Low Range LR6 propeller is engineered to deliver maximum thrust precisely when you need it most: for powerful take-offs, recovering when you bog down, or from a near-stall. Its blades are 6% wider and longer than the standard propeller, increasing both surface area and overall diameter to generate more power at low speeds and for smoother riding on the surface.
KEY INFORMATION

What we like
- More low-end thrust: for more confident take-offs and easier recovery when you bog down.
- Improved surface riding: reduced motor RPM for smoother, more efficient cruising.
- Better control in chop: enhanced traction and grip in rough conditions.
- Superior grip: for powerful take-offs, re-accelerating, after a touchdown, or when you're close to a stall.
Included
- ✓ 3x individually weighed and balanced propellers
Compatibility
- All Foil Drive systems
- 2-blade and 3-blade hubs
Who is it for?
- Intermediate and advanced riders looking to fine-tune their setup.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Principle
Think of it like switching from a road tyre to an off-road tyre: the off-road tyre might be slightly slower at top speed, but it grips instantly and accelerates faster from a standstill. The LR6 propeller operates on the same principle, trading a bit of top speed for superior low-end traction and control. Its larger diameter reduces the required RPM, improving cruising efficiency and riding on the surface.
Usage
Do not mix propellers from different sets. Each propeller is individually weighed and balanced to form a matched set. You can use the set in either a 2-blade or 3-blade configuration, depending on your hub.

FAQ
What's the difference between the LR6 and standard propellers?
The standard propellers are all-rounders. The LR6 prioritizes low-end thrust and control, with the trade-off of a slightly reduced top speed. It's ideal for choppy conditions and difficult take-offs.
Can these propellers be used with 2 or 3 blades?
Yes, the set is compatible with both 2-blade and 3-blade hubs. The three propellers are weighed and balanced as a matched set, so it's crucial not to mix them with propellers from another set.
