Quickest spooling props?
 

On 2 strokes there seems to be an issue of them spooling back up to power slower than 4 strokes from a hovering attitude. Which props tend to spool up faster: low pitch or high, wide blade or narrow, lighter or heavier?

Low, narrow, lighter. Low pitch, WIDE blade, lightweight props usually yield satisfactory results. :)

The lighter the prop the better, the lower the pitch the faster the spool but not necessarily the better performance [assuming your comparing it to another of the same diameter from the same manufacture]. Narrow blades in my experience do tend to spool faster and also have higher static RPM then there counter part, and strangely sometimes actually have more static thrust, although I have no explanation for this.
