Someone here at our club had one on a Morris 47, and I heard it fell off in front of the club in Port Dover 10 years ago.
Probably not the autoprops fault, but that is my only experience width them.

I am now to a point where the prop needs rebuilt at a relatively high percentage of the replacement price. In the past I have heard only one compelling reason to switch from a max-prop and that is the auto prop. The auto prop and max prop both feather and have similar performance in forward and reverse. The big difference for me is that the spindles on the auto prop are supported by actual ball bearings which ultimately suggests that it will be able to operate longer between OEM rebuilds. It seems that those who have an auto prop are very satisfied. IIRC Dwight has one. Can anybody share their experience with their prop? Of particular interest is the maintenance aspects, parts availability, associated costs of maintenance/parts, model details, and installation considerations.
