Does the prop require re-torquing regularly, like all
wood props, or does the carbon fiber coating avoid that ??

Murphy pilots,
Here are the test results using a new overhauled Sensenich and a Prince
wood/carbon fiber prop(bought from Colleen at Murphy}.
The Sensenich with spacer and hardware 38lbs, Prince 13lbs with the same
spacer and hardware.
Static thrust, Sensenich 450/2400rpm, Prince 505/2300rpm.
The Prince prop averaged 70fpm rate of climb better than the Sensenich.
Full power, they both indicated 115mph/2600rpm.
My plane has a 160hp Lycoming on amphibious floats.
