Default RE: 3 blade prop

The rule of thumb is to drop 1" diameter and 1" pitch to get very similar results. Start off with a 17x5. Remember, what you add to the diameter must be subtracted from the pitch or vice-versa. It really depends on what you want. Speed, go with a 16x6 or 15x7. Aerobatic would ask for an 18x4. Just pick your application.
