llumar os .18 which prop is best?
i'm new to hydros and bought the llumas 1/12 and ran it a few times and wasnst satisfied with the speed. i put the os .18 max and didnt change the top end much but have a lot more throttle responce and excelleration. wondering what prop to use? are three bladed props better than two. I think the more pitch you have on your prop the more speed right or wrong? please help i need more speed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

A Prather 215 or Octura X440 may be a suitable place to start.
A 2 bladed prop will give higher speeds since there is less resistance. A 3 bladed prop will get you out of the whole quicker. Yes more pitch will yield a higher speed provided that the engine is not being overloaded.
