PAU 32-3Db. Great prop for 3D work.

I can do snaps on an upline until I'm sick of them. It spools up insanely quick, too. They are very lightweight and cheaper than a Mejzlik. Hands down the best bang for the buck.
What prop did you have before the Falcon. I have a Aerotech Extra with a DA 150. It weighs 42 lb. I have a PT 30x12 on it now. What is the difference between the 32x10 and a 30x12. I want to get a falcon of Mejzilik. Just not sure on the one. I am starting to fly basic IMAC and I love 3d.

I used Mejzlik props before switching. I've switched back and forth with the 30x12 and 32x10. The 30x12 for IMAC and 32x10 for 3D/freestyle. When I switched to Falcon, I bolted a 32x10 on and never changed it. It wants to just start to rip when it unloads, but not to the point where it's obnoxious. Wide open on an upline, it doesn't rip and just keeps on pulling. Only when in level flight when it unloads. I never did try a 30x12. I didn't have a need to. I am pretty satisfied with the 32x10. I don't fly IMAC anymore, but wouldn't hesitate to use the same prop. I don't need more speed and like the better braking of a 32. The Falcon 32x10 will still spool up faster than a Mejzlik 30x12. If you want one prop for both IMAC and 3D, stick with a 32x10. You won't need the added speed until you get past intermediate. The Falcon is already going to give you a little more rpm and speed over a Mejzlik.

Couldnt have said it any better,put the falcon 32x10 on and you wont need another prop.

Good job "BOB". Lol. I like the 3w-3d prop but it loads a 150 pretty heavily. I've had good luck with the vess 32-b and 32-c as well. Good luck

Mejzlik 32 X 10 is a horrible match for the 150, I think it's to much prop for 3D flying. I have tried lots of props and my favorite is the Mejzlik 30 X 10. It spools up quick and spins around 6275-6300 on stock mufflers. Love this prop.
I recently purchased a falcon 31 X 10 but havn't tried it yet.

THANK YOU. Finally someone who isnt recommending to much prop. I tried the 32x10, the Vess 32A, and the 30x10 worked best for me. I wish vess made 30" props. Love the Vess 27A on my DA100s

I'm with ya Joe. 27a on my da100 with stockers or re2's. On my 150 I prefer a mezzy 30-12L , it's on re3's too. Does both 3d and IMAC very well on this setup. Plane is 39 lbs and is a pilot 330s.
