APC props seems to work well. I was told not to use a plastic prop on my DLE20 but it appears many folks are having a lot of fun with the performance these offer.
ANy reasons to not run a plastic prop on the DLE20?
Loss of thrust ring any bells?
Look at one from the side while running and rev it up.
See the tips flex?
That's not a very good plan. I'll save you the trouble. They flex. Just like most props do.
APC's are popular 'cuz they have an EXELLENT reputation regarding durability (think low ground clearance, grass and or rough filelds), 'cuz they are available in enough different sizes/styles that allow your airframe/engine/flying style to flat work well together, 'cuz they are reasonably priced, and 'cuz they are easy to get.
Is there a better prop available? Sure, but you aren't likely going to see one priced competitively - or with grass stained tips? That's my opinion though.
