What is the best prop to use with the slowstick outdoors? I remember reading in a magazine that the stock prop isnt the best choice. Anybody?

SS Stock Prop
Mine has flown fine on the 1108 that came in the box. I have tried the 1206 and can't say I noticed that much difference. I believe that is the two most talked about props for the EPS 300C.
Buy a few of each... you will probably need some spares. I know I did.

I use the 11x8 and it's just fine, I've heard of better performance with the 12x6 but I haven't used one myself.
To save on props, one can either make up one's own cheap prop saver from a spare servo arm or get the GWS prop saver. I saw the GWS prop saver for sale at www.aircraft-world.com and have ordered it (4-pack for $1.45) for all my GWS models.

Prop Saver
I would agree, that especially in the beginning of learning to fly, a prop saver would pay for itself very quickly.
My prop busting has slowed down bunches and I only occasionally break one now.
