Kit includes two hubs and six blades as shown above.

This set from Ultracast includes two 1/48 Hamilton Standard 11' 7" dia.
3-Blade Prop & Spinner (Hub 23-E-50 Blade 6477A-0).

A partial list of aircraft that this propeller is appropriate for is as follows:

     - B-17F (x 2 sets)
     - B-17G (x 2 sets)
     - B-24 (x 2 sets)
     - C-47
     - DC-3

There are 2 props in each set.  Clean up is very minimal and the hubs come attached to the casting blocks with very easy to manage connection points and removal is easily done with no loss of detail.  The detail level and casting quality is flawless.  The blades are wonderfully thin.

The hubs are finely detailed and the blades are very thin and accurate looking.  Research & design by Kevin McLaughlin.

I would like to thank Ultracast for providing me with this product sample.
