I have heard that if one is going to switch from a 3 bladed non-cupped prop to a 3 bladed cupped prop, both of equal diameter, that it is recommended that the cupped prop be reduced in pitch. Example: 13" x 17" non-cupped prop replaced with a 13" x 15" cupped prop. Is this so? Also, what are the advantages and/or disadvantages of running a cupped prop vs. a non-cupped semi-clever?
