Default prop recommendation ?

I am flying an OMP .40 size edge profile. Current power is an OS .46 AX. I'm currently running a zinger pro 13X5 turning about 9300 rpm on 10% fuel and stock muffler. Just wondering what some others are using on .46 size motors with profiles for good hovering performance.
I love the bird. Tried it with a Magnum .52 4 stroke. Too aneimic. I tried a zinger pro 14X4 but it bogged the motor down too much and would not perform even with the magnum. The 13X5 holds a nice hover but doesn't rocket out of it. Will going to a 13X4 give enough added rpm to get the strong exit or will I loose verticle?
