Shows to go ya that you shouldnt believe everything you read. I was a real believer in the APC 12.25 prop. I fly a OS .50 SX on my edge (IMHO it doesnt produce measurably more power than the .46FX) And I say that because just on a lark, I put on a
12 x 4 zinger wood prop. Tailslides are now way, way easier. It got me thinking--look what the apc weighs; youre not gonna transition a big ole heavy prop as fast--you cant. I am finding much
better throttle response; (I use a ball link at the carb for NO slop.) more control in hover; straight-line speed has not increased. No negatives at all doing every trick in the book. My whole point here is a LOT of folks flying edges fly the 12.25 and dont ask questions. You would be surprised to see just how much the prop you use affects what your plane can or cant do! Wish I would have tried the wood prop a year ago!
