 Prop help
I am in the process of getting a prop built for my go-devil, I now run a 10x6. I'm wondering if I would be better off droppin 1in in diameter an go up on the pitch or raise the diameter 1in an go down on the pitch?

 Re: Prop help
Diameter would prolly do better in mud for more grab but a smaller/ more pitch may spin more rpm's dependin on how much more pitch.
Keep in mind I live north of I-10

 Re: Prop help
Thanks for the help, I'm just goin to stay with the same diameter and go up an inch on the pitch.

 Re: Prop help
What rpm's are you turning? Why do you think you need more pitch?
