I should have been more specific, the Current Hamilton documents/manuals are copy righted, the blade dimensions are found in their manual 130B. I do not remember the TO number as it has been many years since I have seen it.Hi Michael
Interesting the drawings are copyrighted since these props were always GFE (Government Furnished Equipment) to Boeing and Consolidated, among others. The "paddle blade" prop, at least, was developed under US government contract, so I suspect the USG owns the rights to those drawings.
I wonder if the National Air & Space Museum has copies of these drawings in their vast collection. I'll have to ping them to see.
Do you recall the TO number or name? Thanks for the lead!
It was an RCAF document cover on a US document, the copy that I say was received about 1952, so probably from late 40's, I do not know what the issue date would be or if Army or Air Force, it has been about 20 years since I last say it.Hi Michael
Again very helpful--particularly the Ham Standard manual number, and thanks. Do you happen to recall whether the TO you saw was Army, or Air Force, and approximately what time period it was issues (WW II, postwar, etc.)?

Hi dude
I'm a Propeller lover... love to 3D model these ones.
Don't have the original building technical drawings ( and honestly after years of researches, not sure anyone still have them, and UTC Aerospace is not keen to help )
But I do own a 6477A-0 blade that I scanned with photogrametry, it helped me have great template and cross section to model one to great accuracy..
May it helps you ?

I have found the the military EO it is "EO 15-30A". I have the size specifications for the 6501 series blades if you want that in PDF format.HI Michael
Good--gives me a place to start looking since my searches so far have been unproductive.
I find I have a copy of EO 15-30-2, EO 15-30-2A, EO 15-30-9, EO-30AB-2G and EO 30AB-2C. Is it possible to get a copy of EO 15-30A?I have found the the military EO it is "EO 15-30A". I have the size specifications for the 6501 series blades if you want that in PDF format.
