Default RE: difference in prop types

Iuse 10,000 rpm as a limit for static rpms on any prop for mid sized 4S engines.
In other words I ground test any prop I am interested in trying and if it turns over 10,000 static it might over rev the engine and cause wear, stress on the engine.
I allow slightly higher rpm limits on smaller 4S engines.
