Where can I find thrust maps (Ct and Cp as a function of J (advance ratio) for common propellers, such as the 1180, and 1260?

Preferably for other propellers as well

1180 and 1260 of which brand, style, etc?
Prop and diameter alone tell you very little. Even from the same manufacturer, different props of the same diameter and pitch will yield vastly different results.

I'm interested in any and all maps. Not limited to any particular manufacturer.

Your question suggested that you had maps to a particular manufacturer (or several).
what maps do you have, (or where can I get them)

Sorry, but I have never seen performance maps for model props. No manufacturer can afford to create the data and few modelers would know what to do with it.
