86"

Alright, it looks like I'm actually going for the prop.
Surely somebody here flying behind one can share their experiences.
You know, how much better it flys, uses less gas, appears taller, thinner and more alluring to the Ladies?

It does all that you mentioned and more!!! I had a 3 blade on my M-5 and now with the 86" on my long wing M-7, I'm just as fast, and pulls harder on takeoff too.

86" in action.
