The Gemfan Hurrican 51433 might be the best freestyle prop available today. Like any freestyle prop, it's smooth and well balanced, but what really impresses me is its durability. These are some of the hardest-to-break props I've ever used. Even when they get a little chewed up, they still seem to have enough balance to produce usable freestyle video, and to get you home after a crash.

I just started rocking the Hurricane 51455 4blades and I am absolutely floored by their performance, they are definitely my new favorite go to prop.

[@adaye5213]

almost pilots said that the 51455 is the best 4 blades all over the world !lol

[@jlarson42]

Really appreciate the trails on your stick movement. Helps me see what's happening. Love the Hurricane 5146.6 on my light weight build. Very durable and responsive. I'm going to give these 51433 on my freestyle build a try. Happy flying, stay safe. 💖🤓

[@yt.wanflay]

I have not won, but I always look for a video on your channel to correct a problem with my drone. Thanks for all

[@Patrick-gb2jl]

Warning! Nerd Alert: Love the aerodynamics behind an increase in diameter, Lift = .5 * lift coefficient * viscosity of air * Velocity^2 * wing area, velocity squared is an exponential function and it is compounded by the wing area of the prop as the length, or aspect ratio of the wing, increases (think glider vs fighter jet). Because the velocity of the motor rotation is so huge, subtle differences in props make huge changes in drone performance and that is amazing to me.

[@yeahboyd5371]

These are my favorite props. I’ve used the 51499, 51466 and 51433. The 51433s give the best flight times and are so smooth!

[@neuroticsdubstep]

Totally agree about this prop. I mainly use this and the 51466

[@spikex41]

Nice perfect timing! Just got my first drone the vortex mojo 230 and love it. But I still crash a lot and blades are what are holding me back so I’m gonna order me 10 sets right away thanks for the videos they help a lot.

[@_antwonTT6]

If you have a TX with a usb plug get on a sim. Good first purchase though, Mojos are straight flying tanks. Keep at it! 👊

[@spikex41]

_antwOn I used to fly big helis and am good on the sticks just getting used to having throttle and not pitch controll, also getting used to fpv instead of line of sight. I do have sims thow just my transmitter cables don’t work with the drone sims so have to use Xbox paddle. Not the same. Cables on order thow lol

Been rocking these for a month on and off. Nice on a slightly heavier build for a little added punch over the Ethix S4, but really similar feel. Super smooth, controlled. And the neon green color is AMAZING

[@jchris_fpv]

Joshua tmotor 5143s? Any comparison? Whats your thoughts? Thanks for sharing. I need to check them. Still have 2 sets unpacked. Cheers!

[@adaye5213]

About T-motor 5143 and 5143S.Maybe it is not so much durable sometimes cuz of lighter weight.But they should be good...cuz they come from same place with gemfan.

[@shawnpatterson3385]

Cool sarong. Let's have a video of all your different ones and where to buy

Doesn’t 60fps make the footage more smooth than 24fps????

[@JoshuaBardwell]

Yes, which is why this video is exported in 60 fps :-)

[@kuzyatron]

Coincidentally yesterday I did a pretty intense side-by-side comparison between 51433 and S3 on my freestyle rig (~680g auw, 6S with 2306 1750kv). Personally liked S3 just a bit more for giving immediate response to input but 51433 was definitely up there, feels halfway between S3 and S4. I think it really is a personal choice and the style of flying, on the flowy vs. manic spectrum

[@shinuza]

[@jiltedgaijin9320]

Hey there. How do these props compare to say the Ethic Watermelons or Lemon/Limes? I’m running both of these right now and really like them. I find they aren’t overly aggressive and give a nice smooth flight even when banged up a little.

[@BubbyFPV]

These are my go to props! They are amazing

[@platty9237]

How’s it spelled? A sarong? His video helped me understand the ‘why.’ I’m sure it gets exhausting to address, but I think humans are wired to rationalize things that aren’t “normal.” For example, my mind kept wondering if it’s just personal preference, ideology, or a cultural thing. I couldn’t care less what the result was, but knowing the “why” allowed me to move on.. brains are weird.

[@MrSabram07]

Any 5.1 prop just makes me nervous, they are so close to hitting the frame

[@drbombast3003]

I fly these props, since Kabab recommended them a while ago and I like them very much. Yes, they don't have the punch of a steeper pitch, but they are really efficient and consistent over the throttle spectrum. But it seems to me, that even Gemfan was unsure on which line this prop runs: The first batch was labelled as Winddancer, the second as Hurricane, but they are clearly the same. Seems to me, they given up on labeling their freestyle props as Winddancers and call every prop Hurricane where the "paddle" on the airfoil is on the inner third.

I got ahold of 30 packs of 51433 props, and I have been using them as my goto prop. I find them to be similar in response AND in durability to the S3's. There's no bunny hopping during throttle application, and they respond thru the entire throttle band. VERY impressive. IMO, HQ hasn't had a real contender for freestyle in quite some time. They do, now, however.

[@JoshuaBardwell]

I definitely do think you should start on sim first. Buy a controller like the Jumper T16 or the FrSky QX7 and use it with your simulator while you work on building your quad. After you get confident in the sim, you might have finished building the quad and can give it a fly. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHbLl5WYbrakg5Y
