What is your potential timeline to establish your market in the US? For example, the EASA LSAs you mention above still have restrictions on their importation into the US and it won't be until July 2026 the new Part 22 LSA certification rules are released. If your timeline is shorter than a couple of years, you may want to contact current US based LSA manufacturers so that your props can be considered before the new rules go live.
As to the amateur-built market, any new prop usually requires a return to the Phase 1 flight testing requirement. Have you started any testing with Lycoming or Continental engines which are the predominant engine in that market? If not, you may want to start that sooner than later if that is also a target market. Good luck.
