Question Best 3 Blade for DA50

hi all!
i'm running a mejzlik 23x8 in my DA50 on canister (100 octane + 2,5 elf sint) but i'd like to see a 3 blade prop in my extra!
so, which is the best 3blade prop for the da50 in your opinion, guys?

thanks a bunch!

No 3 blade is going to perform like the Mejzlik 23x8 but I'm guessing you have plenty of excess power with a DA50 in a 2x2.

The Mejzlik 21.5x11 3 blade is great for a 3 blade.

He's in Italy. Gas in Europe has way more octanage than here.

I've tried the Mjzlik 20x10 on the Hanger 9 Extra 260 with DA 50, and liked it very much.

yeah, a plenty of power! it hover @ 1\3 of trottle!!!
i know that a 3 blade will never perform like a 2 blade, but i don't have power problems and a 3 blade looks cooler!

so, do you think this http://mejzlikmodellbau.inshop.cz/in...22x11.5%22N-3b will be ok?

thanks a bunch!
