Default prop slip calculator

When using the prop slip calculators for a comparison between a mirage plus prop and a Bravo 1 prop it is my understanding that the 4 blade bravo 1 pitch number needs to be changed when using the calculator but I can not remember if you increase or decrease it by one. Any help is appreciated.

In other words if you have a 26 pitch Bravo 1 prop should you use 25 or 27 as the pitch in the calculator?

Anyone have a nice set of 28 Bravo 1 props for sale? Also how are the hydromotive 4 blades compared to the Bravo 1?

No to my knowledge you do not subtract one inch of pitch for the Maximus.

Bravo I propellers are catagorized as bow lifting props and Hydromotive propellers are available in a bow lifting and stern lifting design in the 4B's
