THe question is not "thick or thin " blades but wide or narrow. ie Blade
area.
The narrow ones supplied for the 912 do not have enough area to absorb the
power of the 912S or 914.
There are various in flight adjustables available. Make sure the company you
choose is reputable and reliable. I use the French Arplast prop. Cheap
cheerful and it works. Not as elegantly presented as some but does the
job.
The most impressive one I have seen is the Wirlwind but it is very new and I
don't know the track record. You must ask Kim Prout.
