The special 5-blade design of the Q-prop makes sure that there is always a part of a propeller blade that is “covering” the gear leg of the thruster. Before the tip of the propeller is clear of the gear leg, the lower half of the following blade covers the gear leg. On traditional 4 bladed propellers, you get a water pulse that hits the gear leg each time the gap between the 4 propeller blades passes the gear leg. This create noise and cavitation.
