[TowerTalk] How much weight can a prop pitch support without athrust bearing?

[Rob Frohne <frohro@wwc.edu>]

Hi Everyone,

I have been advised by one person that if I use a prop pitch rotor, I
need to make sure I use a thrust bearing, as the prop pitch wasn't made
to support much if any weight.  Can anyone give me personal experiences
with/without using a thrust bearing with a prop pitch rotor?

Thanks again & 73,

Rob, KL7NA
