Hi, I have a Long-ez with an O-235-L2C fitted. It currently has a cruise prop fitted which with 2 up is only managing 550 ft per min but will cruise at 140 kts. I also have another 63x63 climb prop which I have never fitted. I wonder if anyone can advise what is the optimum prop for a Long-ez to improve climb without hurting the top end too much? What is the deal with composities vrs wood and 2 vrs 3 blade? Also if anyone can recommend a manufacturer that would be great to. Thanks
