[NSRCA-discussion] Electric props vs. standard pattern

[Dave Burton]

Why are we using the Electric style APC props on electric powered pattern
planes rather than the standard pattern props? We are turning the electric
motors at comparable RPMs to a glow engine. The standard pattern props are
stiffer and should be more efficient it seems to me. I can understand a
little weight savings if needed but is that the only reason for using the
E-props? What am I missing? Anyone compared similar E and standard props in
the same sizes? What results did you find?
