Default prop size ??

The 9x4 probably won't work. It won't give the plane enough speed.
The 10x6 might work. It will make the motor work harder and will give you a little more power (although possibly a bit less speed), but the battery won't last as long (the motor might not either! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] It depends on what motor and battery you're using).

Find a place that has the right size of prop and buy at least half a dozen of them.

Also, make sure they're electric props, not glow engine ones (which tend to be larger and shaped differently, and also have a larger hole in the center). 10x6 is the most common size for glow engines.
