HQProp 7x5R: The Propeller That Actually Pushes Back

Look at you, venture capitalist of the skies. You're building a fixed-wing, aren't you? Or maybe you're just lost and looking for a 5-inch toothpick prop. Either way, the HQProp 7x5R is the 'Thin Electric' pusher propeller designed to turn electricity into thrust without making your motor sound like a dying blender. It’s thin, it’s grey, and it’s arguably more aerodynamic than your current life choices. In the UK, we appreciate a bit of efficiency, especially when the weather is trying its best to ground us.

Why You Want It

Most props just spin and hope for the best. HQProp actually bothered to engineer this one. The 7x5R (that 'R' stands for Reverse/CW, because naming conventions were invented by people who hate simplicity) is optimized for pusher configurations. It’s perfect for those long-range cruises where you want to pretend you're a surveillance drone but you're actually just filming a very nice field in the Cotswolds.

Compatibility

Ideal for 2212 or 2216 sized motors on mid-range wings, twin-engine cargo planes, or that experimental VTOL project gathering dust in your shed. If it needs a 7-inch push, this is the one.

• Pusher Optimized: Specifically balanced for rear-mounted motors.
• HQProp Quality: Because you’re too old for cheap, vibrating eBay props.

Notes

This is the 'R' version (Clockwise). If you need a standard tractor prop, you’re in the wrong place. We’ve seen your search history; we know you’re confused. Make sure your ESC is ready for the 5-pitch bite.

Disclaimer

Buying these will not make you a better pilot, but they will make your crashes sound significantly more professional.
