I like both the 9 x 4 and 9 x 5 apc props on my Taco with the .25... For the .32 you might wanna try a 10 x 4.
If you really wanna take off with zero run way... try using flaperon's... Awesome take off.

OK, im confused with the flaperons. Describe what movement should take place with them on.???
What I have programmed now is if I turn the flap knob on my 6as the ails move together like flaps, is this what you mean? I tried using elevons as well today but was unsure as to whether the ails/elev should move in the same direction or opposite...

The knob is just for flap trim and full flap deployment... I'm talking about flaperons... or Elevator to Flap mixing... Just mix chan 2 and 6 at about 50% and assign it to one of the switches. What this does is give you down flaps with up elevator and visa versa... Mostly gives the elevator more authority.
