Hi Ladies and Gents (are there any ladies on here?)
Anyway, I'm struggling with the prop pitch question, I have 12inch props on the hex and am switching between 12x6 and 12x4.5 but am not sure which are better.
The craft is an Aerial photography and videography build so stability is important.
As far as I understand the theory is in an ideal world 6 inch props would have more thrust as they move 6 inches up (or forward) for each revolution whereas the 4.5's move 4.5 inches forward for the same revolution.
The motors can handle the 1260 props no problem so should I just use them as I would get better lift? Is there anything else I should consider with regards to prop pitch?
Thanks.
