props for 3d
To set up for 3d and hovering have found the so called hover props
a bit so so been able to get better hovers on 6 inch pitch pluss
was just dropping out of a hover so i went a smaller prop more pitch
so the static thrust was lower
but but a higher speed thrust
over controls
and now can hold hovers
have found this on 46 to 120 planes
has enyone else found this
so what is your best set up

RE: props for 3d
a 15x4 w blade was great
but a 14x6 was beter for a hover
14x4 was just to far so a 14x5

RE: props for 3d
I've had some mixed results. The 15x6 I used to break my O.S. 91 4 stroke in with, seems to make more static thrust than the 15x4 I got to fly with. I'm gonna try both in the air and see what happens.
