Default RE: Which prop???

I have found lower pitch larger dia works better on bipes. I do try different prop sizes until I am happy with the performance of the specific plane. When I change pitch I usually change dia to keep the rpm's as close as possible to recommended prop size rpm. Up in pitch down in dia, up in dia down in pitch. Once in a while just more pitch makes the difference to better performance.
