Default RE: Prop for 4.2 Brisson


ORIGINAL: Silversurfer

A 22-10 on a 4.2 is generally too small of a prop. The 24-10 Mekzlik would be a better choice. If you could fine one, something other than Zinger, Master Airscrew, Top Flite, or APC in 24-8 would be fun to experiment with. Say A Xoar prop or similar if it was available in that size.
I've flown Menz, 3W and Bolly 24-10 wood props on my First Place 4.2s (very similar to Brisson) with very good results. The Bolly looks very similar to the Zoar props. I always thought a 24-8 would be a good choice but never found one to try. I've grown to prefer the Bolly props because they are available, pretty close to balanced right out of the bag, they're well finished and they perform well. These are made in China and I'm thinking they come out of the same factory as perhaps the Zoar and the new Wild Hare props.
