Three Blade Propeller Hub Set

Three Blade Propeller Hub Set is an optional accessory for Foil Drive, to increase torque and uplift the foil easier.

 

There are three options if you want to change your Foil Drive Two Blade Propeller to a Three Blade Propeller:

1 – The Foil Drive Three Blade Upgrade kit which is the cheapest option:

You only add one more blade to the two you already received with your kit

2 – The Foil Drive Three Blade Propeller Hub, medium price option:

You receive one complete three blade hub to exchange for the original two blade.

3 – The Foil Drive Three Blade Propeller Hub and Rotor Bundle, the most complete option.

This will allow you to change the propeller very easily, on the beach, with a simple screw.

You get to keep both ready to work at the same time.

 

The Three Blade Propeller Hub Set includes:

3x Aluminium Propellers
1x Three Blade Hub

Install Hardware:
3x M3 30mm 2.5mm
Standard Propeller Bolts

3x M3 30mm 2mm Button
Top Propeller Bolts

3x M4 10mm
Hub Bolts

1x 2mm Hex Allen Key

3x M4 10mm Hub Bolts

 

Designed to increase low end thrust, the Three Blade Propeller Hub is an optional upgrade for Foil Drive Assist.

Would you like a little more torque to get out of the water easier?

The Three Blade Propeller Upgrade is a game changer for all riders pushing the limits of rider weight, board size and foil size.

This NEW Three Blade Propeller system, when compared to the standard Two Blade Propeller system, will improve your performance by:

Increased low end thrust
More torque at lower RPM, avoiding propeller cavitation under high load
More effective surface driving when the props breach the surface
A smoother, quieter ride

We designed this propeller specifically for foilers who require more low end torque, whether  to use a low volume board, a smaller or higher aspect foil or being a heavier rider.

We do not recommend using the Three Blade Propeller Hub for prolonged efoiling at full throttle as this will drain your battery much quicker, and could cause the electronics to overheat and enter thermal protection mode.

Technical Specs:

Included with Three Blade Propeller Hubs is a range of hardware, with two options of bolts, Standard Propeller Bolts and new Button Top Bolts:

You can use 3x M3 30mm 2.5mm Standard Propeller Bolts, since these are the same as propeller bolts used on the 2 blade hub.

Alternatively, 3x M3 30mm 2mm Button Top Propeller Bolts can be used to improve hydrodynamics, a secondary tool required.

As they are not in the flow of water, they do not cause formation of small bubbles that then enter the prop.

The smaller Button Top Bolts require a 2mm Allen Key and cannot be used with your existing 2.5mm Driver that comes standard with all Foil Drive kits.

Note:

– Not compatible with Foil Drive Assist.

While they do fit, these propellers require the higher RMP of the Assist PLUS in order to improve performance.

-To avoid any damage, you should always use Three Blade Propeller Hubs with three propellers!

 

Note for Existing Propellers:

If you have any damage to your propellers, we recommend you consider the full set with three fresh, balanced propellers.

Unbalanced propellers may cause vibration and damage to your system.

Foil Drive

Foil Drive

Foil Drive represents a significant advancement in the world of foiling, providing riders with an eco-friendly, efficient, and powerful way to extend their time on the water, explore new terrains, and improve their skills.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or a newcomer to the sport, the versatility and ease of use of these system make them a valuable addition to any foiling adventure. This is a pioneering technology designed to assist and enhance the performance of hydrofoils. It's used in watersports like Surf foil, SUP (Stand-Up Paddle) foiling, and Downwind foil. Since foiling has gained immense popularity due to its smooth and efficient glide across water with reduced drag, we developed an electric boost to foil riders. Our goal is to enable all types of foilers greater versatility and range. Our systems are compact and sleek, integrating seamlessly with most hydrofoil setups.

The purpose of Foil Drive is to provide motorized assistance to riders, making it easier to:

Catch Waves: For surfers and SUP foilers, the drive helps generate enough speed to catch waves with minimal paddling effort, even in low swell conditions. It gives experienced riders a burst of speed to rise onto the foil quicker, reducing the need for manual paddling or pumping. Extend Sessions: It significantly reduces fatigue by allowing riders to continue riding without exhausting their legs or upper body muscles. Uphill Foiling: In wing foiling or downwind foiling, the motorized drive allows riders to cover longer distances against the wind or currents. Training and Learning Aid: For beginners, the drive offers a stable and controlled environment to practice foiling techniques without requiring perfect wave or wind conditions.

The core components of a Foil Drive Kit include:

Electric Motor: A small, powerful electric motor mounted at the rear of the hydrofoil mast. This motor is protected by a durable, waterproof casing, making it corrosion-resistant and designed to withstand the harsh marine environment. Propeller: A specially designed propeller, attached to the motor, which provides the thrust needed to assist the rider when needed. Battery Pack: A compact battery that powers the motor. It’s usually stored in a waterproof casing and mounted on the board or in a specially designed backpack that the rider wears. Remote Control: A handheld or wrist-mounted remote control that allows the rider to control the power output of the motor. The remote communicates wirelessly with the motor and battery to provide precise speed control. Connection Cables: Durable, waterproof cables that connect the battery pack to the motor and other electronic components. Visually, the system is low-profile, keeping the board's aesthetics intact while ensuring that the weight distribution doesn’t affect the balance of the board.

Foil Drive Kits systems come in 3 different models.

Foil Drive systems have been adopted across a wide array of watersports:

Surfing: For those surfing with hydrofoils, the drive enables riders to catch waves earlier and easier, without the need for intense paddling. SUP (Stand-Up Paddle) Foiling: Stand-up paddle foilers benefit from the added assistance, allowing them to cruise across flat water or get into waves more efficiently. Wing Foiling: In wing foiling, the motor can help generate speed in light wind conditions or allow riders to travel upwind more effectively. Downwind Foiling: Downwinders use Foil Drive to maintain a steady speed even in low wind conditions or when transitioning between waves.

Key Advantages of Foil Drive

Energy Efficiency: With the assistance of the electric motor, riders conserve energy, allowing them to enjoy longer sessions on the water. Environmentally Friendly: The electric motor is emission-free, making it a sustainable choice compared to traditional fuel-powered options. Versatility: It can be used across various foiling disciplines, offering flexibility for different riders' needs. Ease of Installation: All our systems are designed to be easily retrofitted onto existing hydrofoil setups, making them accessible for a wide range of users.
