Blade shape does not seem to make much difference on A6's. It is also
difficult to make an A6 prop flare, but not impossible, because of the minimum
dimensions of the wood.
A related question. I have wondered how to determine when a prop is flaring.
Presumably, it is only flaring during the initial power burst, so average prop
RPM for an entire flight might not prove anything since the RPM will vary
some from flight to flight even if the prop does not flare.

Reading rules:
"Propeller 6-inch maximum diameter. Blades to be flat 1/32"
minimum sheet wood, no forming (no twist or camber)."
So, does any tested shapes, flare and other experiments
with this kind of propellers?
