Default Prop sizes..

I went with the 12X4 like you had suggested. was a bugger to find. had to dig in the bottom of a discount box at the LHS! lol guess not to many people have gone to this extreme, but in my case the curiousity definately killed the cat. dune skinned him too Thanks AQ

Cheers,

BTW on a full scale story. Was sitting right seat today in a Pilatus PC-12. we did a zero pitch (2.4 torque) in other words zero thrust practice decent to landing from FL 160. about 15 miles from the airport (5588 in Alt). goes to show even a 10,000 pound airplane glides pretty far with no drag from the prop.
