My favorite thing about this aircraft is the fiendishly complicated description of the propeller.

The propellers it uses are 8-bladed Hamilton-Standard Super Hydromatic contra-rotating individually fully-feathering constant-speed propellers. It’s the best description/explanation I’ve ever seen.

Sorry guys. I have been really busy with work and home life so I had to put this on hold. I'll ask CWatson if he can finish up.
