Re: has anyone use these changing pitch props?

For a minute there I thought you were selling one, but I then saw that you had merely copied the text from a current eBay ad. So, you're looking to buy one?

The Mercury Power2 propeller is based on the same concept as the Torque Shift propeller, that some people on here absolutely love. Do a search! :)

Both props were discontinued a few years ago, so they cannot have been any great commercial success.

Do they work? Apparently yes, but some also claim that they've seen blades flying off. Maybe that potential liability was enough in itself to make them cease production.

I've seen blades come off of the TS props twice. I don't really care to be anywhere around one, especially if the family is with me.
