RE: Best Prop for easy takeoff from grass

I agree. Big, light weight, tires should help (at least 3" diameter light foam), They may look kind of funny, but should help.

And generally you'll want larger diameter/ smaller pitch prop to shorten the take off roll. But it may well depend on the engine. Buy the 9X6 and the 10X4 at least, then try the 10X4 first.
