Reactor Prop choice
I am finishing a Reactor/OS 70 four stroke and would like to order a tru turn spinner pre cut. I am considering a 12-7 prop. Is this the best choice for a 3D airplane?

I would think its too much pitch. But it all depends on what type of flying you want to do. I usually stick to 6 pitch props. For 3D most use 4 pitch or some 6. Try a 13x4 and 13x6.

Maybe even a 14x4 or 15x4. You usually have to experiment with a few props on a plane before you know exactly what meets your expectations. I'd just run it with no spinner or a spinner nut until you find what you like then order your custom-cut spinner.
