Default RE: New CRRC Pro GP50R prototype 50cc

I just came inside from doing different prop rpm and pull test on eack prop.
I was actually shocked at the results, I was thinking the Mejzlik all the way.
These are actual rpm numbers and pull on the scale at the same time.
Using a digital fish scale and no needle changes between props.

Mejzlik 22 X 8.............. 7350 rpm @ 30 lbs. 12 oz. of pull.
Hawk 22 X 8.................7500 rpm @ 34 lbs. 12 oz. of pull.
Hawk 22 X 8 3D............6570 rpm @ 33 lbs. 9 oz of pull.
Hawk 22 X 10...............6600 rpm @ 32 lbs. 10 oz. of pull.
JFX 22 X 10..................6510 rpm @ 32 lbs. 12 oz. of pull.
JFX 23 X 8....................6700 rpm @ 32 lbs. 9 oz. of pull.
Hawk 23 X 8.................6600 rpm @ 33 lbs. 5 oz. of pull.
Xoar 24A 3D.................6300 rpm @ 31 lbs. 12 oz. of pull.
Xoar 24 X 10.................5700 rpm @ 32 lbs. 00oz. of pull.

To my surprise the top four in pounds of pull are HAWKS, with the top rpm and pounds of pull performer being the Hawk 22 X 8 with 7500 rpm and 34 lbs. 12 oz. of pull.
Sorry to say the most expensive and best looking prop ( Mejzlik ) had the least pounds of pull.
Well, I will see how it will perform in the air.
The test subject is @ a dry weight of 15 lbs. 6 oz.
