3-Blade prop for ZDZ80RV

I know it is someplace, but I can't find it. Would some of you comment on what you have found to be a good 3-Blade prop for the ZDZ80RV in IMAC style flying. It's going on a approx 23 pound 35% Giles. thanks.

Mike @ RCS recommends the Mejzlik 24X12. I have a new ZDZ80 twin & I bought a Mejzlik 24X10 to slow down the horizontal speed...untested as yet though.

The ZDZ-80 really doesn't need a 3-blade prop to make it quiet. A Mejzlik or Menz-S 26x10 are both quiet and not at all rippy on that engine. Spend your effort on a cannister exhaust.
