Default Best prop and source

I have a goldberg ultimate with an OS 120 Surpass 4 stroke. I want to run a 3 blade prop just BECAUSE. What would be best for overall aerobatics, including 3d Stuff? Pitch, brand, and supplier please! Experts chime in...[8D]

I also would like to know where you could find a smaller 3 bladed prop and spinner for my Hangar 9 Funtana w/ Saito 100. Having ground clearance problems. I know that 3 bladed makes less thrust than 2 bladed but i have twice the engine that i need so thrust isnt an issue.

I have a 14X7 3 blade Master Airscrew on order from Tower for 11.99. Also a matching ultimate profile aluminum spinner from Dave Brown. I'm hoping this will work adequately. No 6 pitch 3 blades available anywhere, near as I can find... was hoping for an expert that might know of a source...

Loading of the 14x7 is about the same as the 16x6 so you should be fine.
