Looks nice Will! They say with a 3 blade prop,go down one size in Dia.and up 3 in pitch,from what you would use as a 2 blade prop. That's usually a good place to start. High pitch for some fast flying!!

Gonna be cool if we can keep our warbirds together long enough to be able to fly them together..

Looked great Will! It looked like it could use more pitch on the prop,almost sounded like the motor was revving and the plane wasn't going. What size prop r u running?
