Default RE: what u think about my new 6 blade prop ( got a 5 blade ready to test)

Dude I just did that just last weekend.
I put two three bladed props on my Saito .62. I have bench tested it and all went well. The props were already balanced so I just bolted them on to engine with the prop nut. I kept the prop blades equal distance apart to help in balancing the whole thing. I plan to do a thrust test this weekend. I want to compare the difference between a three bladed prop and a six bladed prop. I am looking for grunt not speed.
