Prop question....
I have been resisting the urge to experiment with my engine prop combo for a while and now I can't stand it any longer. What are the advantages / disadvantages to 2 vs. 3 blade props? It seems like every time I see a mag article on this topic a professional has a different opinion. I have 2 planes I aam flying right now, the .40 size Model Tech Magic and the CAP 580. I have a .46 OS La with a 3 bladed 10 x 4 on the Magic and a .50 OS FX with a 2 blade 11x7 on the CAP 580. The magic I have flown with a 2 bladed prop but it seems to be more stable in the air with the 3 blade. I am hesitant to try a 3 on my 580 just because it.... well just because I just finished building it and have only flew it 3 times. Do you think there would be a suitable 3 blade out there for that plane/engine combo?
