Overview
The Gemfan Vortex 5×7.5E / 5×7.5R is an electric propeller made from glass fiber reinforced nylon, designed for 5-inch-class multirotor drones that prioritize smooth and efficient flight performance. With a 7.5-inch pitch, it targets balanced thrust for casual racing and agile maneuvers. The E/R designation indicates clockwise (E) or counter-clockwise (R) rotation for multirotor setups.
Key Features
- Modern blade profile and optimized airfoil geometry for efficient thrust and stable flight performance
- Certified patented design (recognized by the National Intellectual Property Administration)
- Frosted leading edge to enhance high-speed efficiency and reduce airflow separation
- Anti-slip hub surface for secure mounting and reduced slippage during operation
- CFD-optimized airfoil, ultra-thin tip design, and streamlined blades to reduce drag and improve efficiency
- Strict dynamic balancing and factory testing for consistent rotation
- High-toughness nylon material for durability and bending resistance

Details

Throttle-to-thrust, current draw, and efficiency curves help compare 4S vs 6S performance for a 5-inch Vortex 7.5 pitch setup.

Each bag includes two 5-inch glass-fiber nylon props in either CW (E) or CCW (R) rotation for multirotor builds.

The modern blade profile is shaped for smooth, efficient thrust and stable handling in agile flight.



A textured hub surface helps the prop seat securely to reduce slip during high-throttle runs.
