Default RE: Prop Sizes?

Lower pitch and bigger diameter, it evens out you know. A 17-4 APC is marked "w" meaning wide and gives about the same load as a normal 17-6 so the engine will not tell the difference.

A bigger diameter prop with smaller pitch will pull better than a smaller diameter prop with more pitch, that`s exactly what is needed for 3-D. The rpm on the engine itself will stay about the same
