Anyone can recommend a quiet prop?  Does lower pitch mean quietest?

Less pitch typically means quieter, shorter cord means quieter, and blade shape, i.e. bullnose vs rounded,  can have an impact on quietness.  Also, smaller blades are quieter, i.e. a 3 inch is quieter than a same brand at 5 inches.

Yeah, you may not like them.  There are always trade offs, no free lunch.  Let us know what you find out.

You can try some bi-blade props as well. I've found those can be much quieter than tri-blade.

i beleive biblades are generaly louder than triblades, fourblade even quieter.

i use the gemfan 5125, low weight prop with skinny blades, its very quiet. as i fly them on ultralight builds, not sure how they would sound on a heavy quad. i beleive its generaly a very quiet prop.

the hq4.8x3.4x4 is another quiet prop i know
