Default RE: effect of prop pitch on efficiency

Thanks everyone for your response. From what I gather then the 13x8 prop should be more efficient than the 13x6.5 prop at cruising speed. The prop selector program showed it was about 3% more efficient keeping speed and amp wattage the same. Anyway, I've ordered some of the 13x8 to try out.

BTW My prop collection is growing.
