Default RE: Prop question

A three blade prop is not as efficient as a two blade. Also, your engine may not have enough oomph to turn a large enough 3 blade to fly the plane. Most full scale warbirds had extra power that had to be absorbed by the prop. Use a static 3 blade for display and a normal 2 blade to fly with. In the air, you can't tell the difference.
