Default Help on Prop size.

OK guru's,
I need your help. I have my Cap 232 done. Have several flights on it. But I really don't know if I have the best prop on my plane. It's a 27% Cap weight is 14.7Lbs, Motor is a Moki 1.80 with 3 gallons ran through it. Idle's great.. Need to work on lower end transition. I'm looking for the best prop for 3D. Current Prop is APC 18X8.

Hey Stang,

Try an APC 18x6W, plenty of pull and should spool up a little quicker than the 8 pitch.
