Default RE: Avistar assembly question

....As for props, I bought 6 wood and 6 nylon props with the plane. That way I can practice with the wooden ones when I'm more likely to break one, and switch to the nylons when I'm comfortable....
You want to do the exact opposite. Use the wooden props AFTER you have learned to fly. Wooden props will shatter if you even THINK about touching them to the runway. You will want to use the nylon props for training because they can handle touching the runway during rough landings and not shatter.

Hope this helps
