Speed/prop for pattern competition
I just followed one of the links in the video thread. It was to a guy flying pattern on a sim. What I noticed is that he was flying through the maneuvers A LOT slower than I have been. I feel like this is better as it shows much more control of the aircraft. So what do you guys use for props? I'm going to my first competition next Saturday with a 40 size plane. I've been using an 11x5, but flying with lots of RPM and a little speed. I wasn't thrilled with a 12x5 as the engine (46AX) had a hard time with quick acceleration, but it did have plenty of pull and climb. Was thinking maybe a 12x4 so I could get more RPM's?
Thanks for your thoughts.
