you could lab the 25 and add addtional cup to account for the rpm which will result in addtional lift and a little more speed,as far as the 4 bld it will plane out quicker and probably run a few mph slower but with greater overall " charistics "? such as mid range speeds, and handling at high and lower speeds .

How much to lab the 25 and add the additional cup? I may try this...I would be happy to gain a couple mph

I would lab a 27 mirage plus. It'll be faster than a bravo 1. When I tried a bravo 1 on my 25 o/l it porpoised pretty bad at higher trim angles which I needed to get any speed and rpms. I would expect the same from your h2x but it sure wouldn't hurt to try your luck. Good luck..

I had a 23p rev 4 on my H2X it really din't work to well. I had bad cavitation problems it would blow out just about every time just before planning out.I would stick with the 3 blade.

Thanks for the info. I knew some of you guys on here had to have already tried this... I figured I would be able to get enough feedback from you guys on here to decide wheather to even fool with trying a 4 blade..

That is VERY strange. Never heard of anyone having that experience before.

It did seem kind of strange it wouldn't do it all the time but there was times i had to try to take off like 10 times before i could get it up on plain .Switched back over to the mirage 23p 3 blade had no problems i am going to try a 25p mirage next.
