FPV drones · 15-inch heavy-lift drones
heavy multirotor drone propeller 15 in, 2 blades (winglets (6 % of radius, canted at 75°))
Model designed and computed with the Heliciel software. Design point: 4,500 rpm in hover, 50 % throttle on a T-Motor MN4014 400 KV motor on 6S with a 15x5 propeller. 6 % radius winglets: their effect on tip losses follows Heliciel's model, not validated by testing.
The pack contains the complete propeller as a full-definition STL with root fillet, STEP surfaces (complete propeller and one blade), the Heliciel .hlc project and the computation records. It also contains the same propeller turning the other way (STL and STEP).

This model was designed and computed with the Heliciel software. For a custom propeller there are two ways: the Heliciel software (Windows: computation, 3D view, STL and STEP exports), and the Heliciel MCP connector, which lets your AI assistant — ChatGPT, Claude, Le Chat and any MCP client — compute a real propeller, with a free 1-day discovery pass.

Heavy-lift drone propeller 15 in, 4 blades, rounded tips and 20° skew
Model designed and computed with the Heliciel software. Design point: 4,500 rpm in hover (T-Motor MN4014 400KV motor on 6S, about 50 % throttle). Four blades with rounded tips and skew: more thrust than the two-blade version at the same speed.
