    Raker to Bravo 1

    If I am spinning a 24 Raker HO prop and want to go to a Bravo 1 4 blade how far down do I go? Merc site says to drop 1 pitch so that would be a 23...but I have read where 22 might be the pitch. So 1 size down or 2?

    Bravos are usually already sized down. A 25" Bravo usually runs the same RPMS as most 24" other props, and a 23" performer.

    You normally pitch up when changing to a Bravo because they are lite on pitch.
