    The 42x55 will be OK... It should prove to be faster than the stock prop for sure. More blade area and more pitch. If you upgrade the power system to the 1800KV or higher, it will be excellent.

    Frankly, NO PROP BOX should be without at least ONE ABC or Grim 42x55, and also an ABC 45x55... When all else fails, these are my fall-back props.

        Balance and sharpen. The Grim props are better than the Octura's as raw props, but they both need sharpening and balancing. Be sure to wear a respirator as the beryllium dust is very hazardous.
