RE: WHAT APC PROP IS BEST FOR PKZ F4U CORSAIR
hi, thanks for the reply... i have a Power 10 and i'm currently using the stock 2 blade propeller... for the type of flying that i do, which is mostly scale flying, i'm pretty happy with the performance to battery life ratio of the stock propeller... the thing is, i want something that is longer for looks... i'm thinking of going with an 11x6 inch Mater Airscrew for electrics, but exactly what changes are going on going from a short-high pitched propeller to a long-low pitch propeller...? i understand the calculations and conversion that you posted at the top, but doesn't it mean that the 11x6 will go slower than the 9.5x7.5 at a given RPM...? although the 11x6 will have much greater torque...?
also, i understand that the stock 3-blade prop is not very efficient, but i'm wondering if i will see a great reduction in battery life going from the stock 9.5x7.5 to an 11x6 prop...?
