How to Choose RC Propellers (Best Models and Reviews)

Sometimes, buying a set of RC propellers is as simple as following the maker’s suggestions. But not all props are equal, and the stock products that come with a model may not be the best. There are also those who scratch build or assemble planes from kits. These guys need to do a little homework. They must find out what propellers give their model the look and performance they need.

A Beginner’s Guide to RC Props

You’ll know all the basics on how to choose the ideal props by the end of this short introduction. The 5 points below are the ABCs of aircraft propeller knowhow.

The different types of RC propellers
How to choose the right size prop for your aircraft
Multi-blade propellers Vs. 2 blade
How to balance propellers
Installing your aircraft propellers

#1 RC Propeller Material Choices

Here are the 4 types of RC propeller materials:

Fiberglass-reinforced nylon
Carbon fiber
Wood (various)

There are others, but we’ll focus on the common types to keep things simple. So, the most asked question is, how do I choose? Well, there are three considerations. One is personal preference, and the other two are durability and efficiency. It can be a balancing act between two and three, depending on needs, flying style, and skill level. Novice pilots, though, should always go with durability first.

You can perform a visual test to check the effectiveness of any prop. All you do is watch the blades spin and monitor the flex under load. More flex means less efficiency during flight. OK, let’s now look at how the materials can influence an RC pilot’s decision.

Fiberglass-reinforced nylon propellers

Fiberglass-reinforced nylon props offer more flexibility than those made from other materials. They also have a large blade area, which means they’re not the most efficient, so why bother? Well, these blades are more accident-resistant, and that alone makes them a reliable choice. Fiberglass-reinforced nylon is ideal for beginners, especially those who haven’t mastered soft landings.

Pure nylon propellers

It can be tempting to opt for pure nylon props because they’re the cheapest. But they have so much flexibility that they twist and change pitch. That, in turn, causes them to vibrate. These behaviors mean there’s a lot of wasted energy. Some pilots used to boil nylon props after a crash to straighten them. Today’s nylon props are better than they used to be, but savvy pilots still won’t touch them.

Carbon fiber propellers

Propellers made from—or that contain—carbon fiber are more expensive than plastic alternatives. There are a few advantages to consider with these blades. They’re stiff for one, and that means they don’t vibrate as much as plastics. Carbon fiber props are also light and quiet compared to other types. And although they’re not indestructible, they are durable and resistant to moderate hits.

Wooden propellers

These blades are typically made from beech, maple, or balsa, and are rigid and light. The lighter weight put less load on the engine, and that results in higher revolutions per minute (RPM). The downside is that wood is the most fragile material of all. I’d only suggest props made from wood to pilots who have perfected their landings. Seriously, these blades don’t take much to break.

#2 How to Choose Propeller Size

We define a prop’s size by two sets of numbers, i.e., diameter and pitch (pitch follows diameter). The diameter is 2x the distance measured from the hub’s dead center to the tip of the prop blade. Pitch is the total distance a propeller moves in one full revolution (turn).

The best way to choose the correct propeller size for your plane is to follow the maker’s suggestions. Ask on RC forums if the instructions are too vague or void of the necessary information. Scratch builders, though, need to determine the correct sized based on a few factors.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the 7 considerations for determining RC prop size:

Manufacturer recommendations
Engine type and power
Cruise speed
Ground clearance
Noise abatement issues
Personal preferences

The simplistic approach

Choosing the right propeller for any model aircraft deserves an entire page. We won’t get into that here, though. You may want to learn about all the considerations if you’re a builder or an enthusiast. The study areas include things such as:

Propeller types, i.e., fixed pitch, controllable
Material (see above)
Weight and balance

I encourage you to keep things simple by using a two-stepped approach:

Use an online propeller size chart
Confirm your findings with experienced pilots on an RC forum

RC propellers for drones

High-budget, mid-range, and top-end quadcopter props are the easiest of all to buy. That’s unless you’ve scratch built a unique drone. The ideal choices are brand-name propellers. You can find quality third-party products too, but they’re still drone-specific. All you do is check the products to the model to know they’ll fit. Not all non-brand props are equal, so read user reviews before you buy anything.

I include a few RC drone propellers for popular models in the review section below.

Propeller size charts for RC aircraft

Propeller size charts are quick and easy to use. Simply match the engine size to find the ideal prop size and the propeller range. These charts come in various forms, but the results are the same.

Here’s an example of the layout for a straightforward propeller size chart.

Engine Type: Gasoline


50cc	21 x 10	20 x 12, 21 x 10~12, 22 x 8~10	6000~7200rpm

#3 Multi-Blade Propellers Vs. 2-Blade

Multi-blade propellers look great on certain types of aircraft, but does more mean better? Well, multi-blades are generally less efficient than the two-blade variety. The reasons for this are not difficult to grasp. The purpose of aircraft props is to create lift—like the wings. More blades result in less space between the spinning props. That reduces the “bite,” so 3 and 4-bladed props become less efficient.

So, why do some pilots continue to use multi-blade propellers when two blades are better? The answer is more blades result in a smaller diameter. Some large-scale planes don’t have enough ground clearance for the diameter of 2-blades. Fans of scale models also want their aircraft to look as authentic as possible. If the original is a multi-prop bird, then their replica should be too.

Why beginners prefer 3-bladed props

Three-blade propellers are an excellent choice for learner RC pilots. Less efficiency lets the aircraft fly at slower speeds, which is better for training. Novice pilots can switch to 2-bladed props once they have the confidence to exploit the engine’s full power and performance.

#4 How to Balance RC Plane Propellers

Balancing RC plane propellers is vital because it reduces or eliminates vibration. Too much vibration is potentially harmful to the model. Over time it can damage the engine’s bearings, motor, and even the airframe. The larger the model, the more critical prop balancing becomes. There’s a simple instrument called a prop balancer that every RC pilot should have in his or her toolkit.

These simple devices are invaluable, and they last a long time with proper care. The best way to highlight their features and how they work is with a few examples.

ZJchao Precision Prop Balancer for RC Planes | Best Budget

EDITOR’S RATING: 4.2/5

This precision prop balancer by ZJchao is for RC planes and quadcopters . It only costs a few bucks and offers excellent value. The tool has a neat compact design and uses magnetic stability. The build consists of metal and carbon fiber components, so it’s well-made for the money. You must make sure the balancer sits on a stable level surface before you use it. It’s fully assembled and has instructions.

Cons: It’s cheap, and that means it’s not going to be as good as a product at twice the price. Some complain that they must tweak and balance the prop balancer before they can balance the prop.

Goolsky Tru-Spin Multi-Model Prop Balancer | Best Value

EDITOR’S RATING: 4.5/5

The Goolsky Tru-Spin Prop Balancer is manufactured using hardened material. The tool can balance many props of varying weights and sizes, including large-scale ones. It’s also a multi-purpose tool that RC’ers can use to balance other things. They include jet fans, flywheels, boat props, and car wheels as well as plane props. The tool needs assembling though it’s a straightforward process.

Cons: There are a few complaints about the 3mm shaft. Reviewers say it’s an overly tight or impossible fit for the centering cones and brass bushings. Some suggest freezing the shaft first as a solution.

Du-Bro 499 Tru-Spin Prop Balancer | Top Pick

EDITOR’S RATING: 4.7/5

My Top Pick choice goes to the US Du-Bro 499 Tru-Spin Prop Balancer. It’s a favorite among RC pilots and sells well. The tool has a quality feel and uses hardened material in its build. This product is a versatile, multi-purpose balancer that accommodates props of all weights and sizes. It’s quick to assemble out of the box and has easy-to-follow propeller balancing instructions.

Cons: Some users say they had to rethread the support rods. Most buyers don’t have issues, but there are enough complaints to make it a ‘potential’ concern. Check the latest user reviews for updates.

#5 Installing Airplane Propellers

You may have to enlarge the propeller’s central hole if the engine shaft is bigger. Make sure the hole is 100% spot on if you need to widen it. It only needs to be slightly off center to cause excessive vibration. The way to ensure 100% accuracy is to use a prop reamer tool . —————————————————————————————————————— Below are 10 RC propeller mini-reviews. You may or may not find a prop for your needs here, but that’s not the point. Reading these short descriptions can help you to become more familiar with the type of blades on sale. You get to understand their uses, materials, and typical specs, etc.
