You don't need that higher efficiency.

And, being brutal about it, your trainer is not expected to last long enough for the vibration to damage it. Just a fact of (trainer) life.

Expect to hit your props?
. The flexible ones are tops.

Cheers for the advice Bill, going to source a flexible prop on the net as I really couldn't be arsed travelling the best part of 100 miles round trip to a decent model shop here in the North of Ireland

And lastly, "I do expect to hit my prop" should be regarded as lucky if thats all I hit
