Status: offline 		I have a Sundowner F-1 plane by hanger 9. I have the 80" version with a brand new Moki 2.10 in it. I don't have much clearance for a large prop. I currently have a Mejlik 16 x 12 on it and it occassionally skims the grass. I've ordered an APC 17 x 13 but it's going to be a challenge to keep it off the grass. Would going down to a 15", 3 blade prop with more pitch be just as effective as a larger 2 blade prop? Which would slow my plane down more on approach? Or should I find a taller set of landing gear somewhere?

Status: offline 		if you haven't already, ask this question in the Extreme prop plane section. Those are the fast sport guys, and should be able to help.
