What prop if not APC
 
Right now I'm using APC wide blade props for 3D flying. I think they are pretty heavy. So I'm looking for some light alternatives. One is a 12,25x3,75 and the other is a 14x4W. What other props can provide the same great thrust like APC but at less weight?

I used a Pro Zinger 14x4 with good results.

i use pro zinger also, i change back and forth to change cg with apc, on my cheap scale there is about an ounce difference on the 15x6;)

The weight of the APC prop is not an issue --
TheAPC is one of the least expensive props which hold shape while revvingup down
pick the right blade size and the engine will rev quickly
Just because a prop is light -doesn't make it a good 3 D prop.
There is a new clone of the Mejzlic now available in Czech Republic -extremely light - if tthat really is what you feel necessary
I think it is MZ
anyway two letters.
extremely light -look exactly like Mejzlic

i like menzs

Mejliks are now been regarded as "not so good for 3D" and more of a IMAC prop
