Default Quickest spooling props?

The lighter the prop the better, the lower the pitch the faster the spool but not necessarily the better performance [assuming your comparing it to another of the same diameter from the same manufacture]. Narrow blades in my experience do tend to spool faster and also have higher static RPM then there counter part, and strangely sometimes actually have more static thrust, although I have no explanation for this.
