I repeat one of my earlier posts to ask, “What is the preoccupation with pitch” why not use a larger diameter prop?
A ¼ scale warbird doing 125mph that’s 500mph, they’re not going that speed at Reno! They just look ridiculous. Remember, pitch is for speed, diameter is for weight.
I have a three blade 32x12 on my La7 and it’s easy to get that flying too fast.
