Cessna R/TR 182 Pilots and Owners

I’ve heard good things, Definitely lighter which improves flare characteristics, and increases climb performance. However, I’ve heard that the repair on the MT can be quite problematic and quite delayed At the factory. That’s just rumors though

Would be nice to hear from someone who has installed MT prop on R/TR182 to hear about actual performance figures, advantages, limitations, etc.

We've had one installed on our '78 R182 since 2/24, and the results are promising. That said, ongoing and super-frustrating issues with a simultaneous installation of an Electroair Dual EIS system have meant no long or high-altitude flight to gather more meaningful data.

I have MTV-9-B on my TR182, it is indeed quiet, but as for performance it's hard to say, because I don't have much experience with Hertzell.
If you plan to use gravel landing strips, expect the scratches to be filled and polished.

We finally could fly two "other than test flights" after seven months of troubleshooting our Dual EIS install and did Santa Ana to North Las Vegas and back for the NBAA convention. As a passenger, I felt the ride was noticeably smoother. Because we went from a two-blade to a three-blade propeller there was no change in CG.
