Default 14x4?

Tried the 14x4 prop.

Good point: very quick throttle response.
Bad points: Less static thrust than a 12x6apc (slower climbout from hover (too slow))
Top speed of plane dropped from 90mph to about 45.
Noticably louder (prop noise)

Guess I'll try a 13x5 apc (if they make it) or a zinger.
