I've been flying a 15.5x12 four blade on a muffled os1.40 with good results. The power transition is smoother than when I was using a 16-13 two blade (seems to react slower). Plus it looks cool on my Jupiter. Down lines are slower also.

3 blades pull more to the left require more or a touch of r-rudder on up lines, snap tighter, faster downlines, quiter some times depending on muffer set up (cans and its on). Better ground clearance.

2 blades the opposite of my above:
