Guys,
I've flown stunt with props having from one to four blades.
I flew my canard with a one blade prop, just to see if I could. It was no problem. The model didn't accelerate real quick on release for take off, but once up to speed, the was no problem flying the pattern. I've always thought that you simply have to trim what you have, to do what you what you want it to do.
I personally like 3 blades, the way they look and being able to make a shorter landing gear.
Of course now that we're using electric power and left hand props, I have to now make my own left handed 3 blade.
